Before I segue into what I want to talk about today, I would also like to say that I am going to be writing some shorter posts. With that out of the way, let’s move into the Twilight Zone, or rather… who created it. For a series that came along as early as 1958, it…
Have you ever noticed most of the cars they make now all look the same? If you took the badge off many of them, you wouldn’t even know who made them. It wasn’t always like this. Back in the day they had hot hatches like the iconic Mark 1 Volkswagen Golf GTI and the Peugeot…
When you’re a kid there comes a point in your life when you get around to calling someone your best friend. I’m not sure how this thing is decided or what the points system is but eventually it somehow happens. In my life I had my first ‘best friend’ when I was 7 and I’d…

Testing… Testing… 1, 2, 3… Is there anybody out there? Don’t be daft—of course there isn’t. This is a brand-new blog, fresh out of the wrapper—nobody even knows about it yet. The only one reading this post right now is me, and that’s exactly how it should be. We don’t want 100 weirdos at the…
