@markchristie @5054magazine A44 Worcester Road going West out of Chipping Norton or East coming in - like a war zone

This is Oxfordshire, a council that's spent £4m on ultra-low speed limits, £4.1m on just two 'active twavel' schemes, £4m on LTNs, £3m+ on closing Witney High Street, £500k on ZEZ, nearly another £6m on its expansion and £2.3m (and rising) on ANPR cash and control cameras.

Some songs lift us up, other songs bring us down. What's the most depressing song you can think of...😩🎶

Name a song that mentions an instrument in either the title or lyrics. Let's see how many we can come up with.

@20th_Centurygal Unpleasant Breakfast - The Hold Steady. Cruisers’ Cross- Guided by Voices. Witches- Cowboy Junkies.

I'm throwing a Halloween party and everyone's invited...Let's build the ultimate Halloween party playlist...🎶🎃 Everyone add a song...👻

Who's your favorite guitarist still active today? 🎸

@AlexBrundle @MBrundleF1 If I were still at Aston Martin I’d be happy to give him a run out in the Vantage training car 😀

BTW if Max Verstappen wants to enter a race in GT3 at the Nurburgring - by the letter of the law he has to do two races of 14 laps total - in a car of power equivalent to a detuned Porsche Cayman. To get an A permit. @MBrundleF1 did a similar thing to race with me a few years back. The organisers in my experience are pretty militant about there being no exceptions - so MV in a club spec BMW/Porsche, could be in our future. 😃 I think that would be cool.

Look who’s back in IMSA… #AstonMartin #Vantage #IMSA

@BraegerEmily @theipaper Hi Emily, this is a rather misleading and sensationalist headline and story. The main cause of this situation is the unusually high increases in state pension in 2023 and 2024 due to the triple lock, but you don’t mention that until the penultimate paragraph on page 10.

@atrupar Reminds me of this!

Trump: "I took my cognitive exam as part of my physical exam, and I got the highest mark, and one of the doctors said, 'Sir, I've never seen anybody get that kind of -- that was the highest mark.'"

If you could bring one thing back to #F1 , what would it be and why? #Formula1

@elonmusk Anyone can stop a war by surrendering

It's like being proud of shitting yourself in a lift in front of everyone.

@TheExtremeMusi1 Pale Saints

Who's the best band beginning with P???

@TheExtremeMusi1 Guided by Voices Camper Van Beethoven The Blue Aeroplanes

Which is the greatest band that never hit the big time???

@TheExtremeMusi1 Craig Finn

Who do you consider the greatest songwriter of all time???

@MBrundleF1 I remember it well. I think I was almost as disappointed!

I received this great 1992 image from René Fagnan which was captured by Charles Gauthier. My Benetton had just broken down in a a race which looked certain to be my first F1 victory. Ayrton had stopped in the same place. He said to me “bad luck, it hurts doesn’t it?” It did 😢

@MauriceHamilton @RoyalAutomobile @prodrive A fantastic evening, a privilege to be there.

Really excellent evening at @RoyalAutomobile Pall Mall celebrating @prodrive 40 years. Former co-drivers Robert Reid, Luis Moya & Derek Ringer with David Lapworth and host Steve Rider. Some great stories from these guys highlighting Prodrive's depth of achievement

@Andrew_Frankel Classy car, no help required 😀

Anyone else unfairly prejudge their hotel rooms according to whether the Peugeot on the door was any good or not? I quite liked this one. Concede it’s possible I may need help.

@jetsrut @billybragg Was excellent

It’s such a shame the 90s bands I see being remembered are almost all male, when the 90s were a paradise of woman-led bands: Hole Belly Garbage Skunk Anansie Portishead The Cranberries The Breeders Who am I forgetting
