Courtesy of the Moulsdale Foundation, Glasgow, whose braided-piped embrace welcomed me on Sunday, jubilee-clipping me firmly in place for two hours of gawping and grinning as my inner 10 year old leapt out and ran giddily round the shiny things. Sigh.
And now, so do I! See you there one day, big man.

Superb variety on show, with a healthy lean into 70s-90s rally legends today. Open days last Sunday of each month. Approx 1/3 of collection on display at a time. My wee 10 year oldβs brain is reeling tonightπ€©

Stunning array of wonders today at the Moulson Foundation outside Glasgow. Think @creatinglightly.art might need a wee trip for research-many homologation specials to pour over. @thealso.bsky.social ever been?

Justice re-listening to this and musing as to how awsome it would sound as a James Grant & Fraser Spiers cover. Beautiful stuff from Darden Smith

Peugeot 205 2dr βGreenβ special edition in white in mint condition with all standard wheel trims, body coloured bumpers with green piping, factory fitted sunroof. Pure 1988 on 4 wheels. Where are my kid-on Ray-bans?
Simply, the ultimate expression of French class and effortless style - Citroen SM Decapotable. Shimmering silver this shot is rear offside 3/4 with roof dropped revealing sumptuous black leather that wouldnβt look out of place in Serge Gainsboroughβs lounge. Achingly, knucklebitingky cool.

If you ever wanted to ask me anything about my art or advice for yours, take this as your green light to go ahead.
Would love to read and see art from you!
Jim very generously gave me a wee shot of the Lane car as it passed through Edinburgh on its direct (?) route to the museum. Made my Mazda feel ponderous and profligate.
Then chatted with a lovely lady in Osaka who let me snap her S660. She said it made her smile every drive. Gotta agree. I loved it
