Never mind pied noir, what about derriere brune? I still haven't shaken off the campsite dysentery.

Got to be the Lambo - high pitched but more pleasing than the Ferarris. I could have listened to that all day.... rather than the 18 hours or however long it lasted.

Was good to hear a Saleen again too.

Ton mère a une maladie sociale.

Works well late at night in smokey bars when you've just spilt someone's pint.

Wow! A human lollipop. Do you think there was a joke written on the side of the stick when they pulled it out?

P.S. What is Sarah Jessica Parker doing at the back of the room?

The very same. They have a lovely golden beer at a measly 10% abv. Their Scotch Ales are even lower. Maybe 7 or 8%. Best drunk in a reclining position so you don't have so far to fall.

Not exactly Tesco Biere d'Alsace stuff.

Gordon are a Belgian Brewery firm with a nice line in Scotch Ales.

My first time at La Sarthe was in 2000. So two cars that stick in my mind from then are the Olive Garden Lola B2K barge and the 'Speedy' red, white and blue Courage. Neither did much, but they looked good.

I always had a soft spot for the Ascaris. I can remember in 2001 standing on the Tertre Rouge embankment at 2am, getting drenched, pouring Kronenbourg down my gullet, while the Ascaris kept on blatting past lapping faster than anyone else.  

Shame that they jacked it in soon after...
