I think I may have inadvertently caused some disruption of some classic outing yesterday.My 1968 Volvo 120 estate is my daily driver and I was doing just that,going to meet up with a chum from another village.On reaching an intermediate village en route I was surprised to see a chap with a camera leap off a bench and appear to busy himself taking shots of the Volvo.At the other end of the village,at the hall,were parked an Austin Healey sprite,crew aboard, and a Triumph herald.Just after leaving the village I encountered a very tidy Ford cortina coming towards me.I thought this chap looked a bit unsure of his location but was quickly gone.
However minutes later I saw him in my rear view mirror,apparently following me,and he continued for some distance to do so.Eventually he must have realised I was not one of this elite band and it was pure coincidence that he had encountered a 43 year old Volvo enjoying the beauty of rural Northumberland.I still have no idea what was going on but,if prizes were involved,this chap must have blown his chances !!! |

Sounds like one of the treasure hunts that I go on looked in my mirror once and had six other people following me, all good fun though _________________ If the world didn't suck we'd all fall off |

On a couple of occasions I too must have caused confusion as I have been hailed as a taxi!
(I don't really have a Taxi for hire sign but maybe I should.)
