St. George & The Tortoise

Track of the day - Beep Beep - The Playmates.

At over £43 an inch, this is a seriously expensive little beast, even if it comes 'complete with all equipment' and 'can deliver'.
I would go for a three year old Spider with a 3.0 litre V6 engine.
Costs about the same per inch, carries a passenger, the acceleration is far superior and it doesn't hibernate in Winter.

Today is St. George's Day
and we certainly know how to celebrate St George's Day here in Bogsville.

At lunchtime a brass band will be playing traditional music in the city square.
Some exhibitionist promises to give his vintage organ an airing at 11.00am and this will be followed appropriately enough by a free sausage handout.
Anyone who fails to get a free sausage or a flash of the vintage organ might strike it lucky when a hundred red roses are dished out.
The high point of the day comes when the Mayor throws an indoor street party in his parlour at £7 a head.
He obviously doesn't expect too many people to turn up but as St George is also the patron of leprosy, plague and syphilis sufferers, that's hardly surprising.
