The Bright Yellow Car Convoy

Yes he has indeed bought a grey Corsa.
The locals were absolutely brilliant. I know some newspapers have written otherwise, but they were brilliant. In the past few weeks they have been popping up on the planning page on Faceache and wishing us well.
The convoy itself took nearly an hour and a half and was quite slow in places. I'm not good at slow speeds with my dodgy leg but the pain was all worth it for such a fabulous experience.
As we got to the outskirts of the village- everyone was outside waving and cheering. Lots of them were wearing yellow. There was a man dressed as a banana and lots of cyclists in yellow jerseys ringing cow bells, just like Tour de France. The tourists faces were a picture, especially the Japanese ones. The whole scene was full of people pointing camera of all shapes and sizes and cheering and shouting "well done!" It was incredible. A special mention must go to the lady on the mobility scooter who was out waving away from the main crowd.
As usual the despicable vandal who was making a point for everyone else in his village had got it terribly wrong. We really felt the yellow car love from the people of Bibury.
The man we had gone to see, Mr Maddox was so happy, it was all worth while!

I have to say that experience would suggest that the vandalism is likely to have been from within and chances are from a grockle with a second home in the village. I have been given the third degree from a Landan based grockles about the relatively quiet exhaust on the stormy blue when visiting my Brother in S.Devon. Genuinely unpleasant in his tone so he was, the car was at the time running a standard system with an ILM. Back box so not loud by any standard. He commented consistently about hearing it at around 11am every morning!

Thankfully some of the genuine locals put him in his place. Said individual would likely ended up in Derriford if I's rolled up in the GM. Small minds from those buying up properly so the local kids can't.

The guy in this case occupied his property three weeks a year. Property value circa £1.5 m for a Three bed detached property, what chance the locals on generaly low wages, part time, self employed or zero hour contracts.

Great system!
