Why is it that whenever I start up a perfectly reasonable thread some lune
(several lunes in this case ) hijacks it?
What the hell is taffy-pulling for God's sake?
Sounds like gross indecency in Snowdonia to me.
AND don't any of you dare to try and bring up that incident with the policeman, the torch
and Mary the Marino sheep. Anyone can make a mistake and I've paid my debt to society.
Anywho........................
Back on subject.
Not much to report from London on the classic car scene this week but these summer pictures might calm you all down a bit
One's a Porche and the other's a Volkswagen.

I think the guys name was Hamilton, quite popular in the early 80ies ...Keith wrote:I wish you'd wipe that lens on your camera!
Back to topic: I don't like the Bentley at all but the Porsche GT is a fantastic car.
Not really a classic though but time will tell.

That would be David Hamilton. I never saw the attraction of the "soft focus" style, myself.Jens wrote:I think the guys name was Hamilton, quite popular in the early 80ies ...Keith wrote:I wish you'd wipe that lens on your camera!

John Xavier was a British photographer who also used the "soft focus" style to excess -- he owned a white Interceptor, or at least used one in some of his photos.
