"‘83 Scottish - Bedford Barge and Jimmys Manta with Rick ‘Archie’Bell massaging Erwin Webers rear quarter back into shape with the sledgehammer. If memory serves me correctly, Roger Pearce, myself and a very young Colin McRae were just setting up for a tyre and refuel. You can just make out the wounded press car in the background that the front strut had just come through the bonnet."

"When it's cold and raining, the best place for middle aged men to head is their nearest DIY store. Getting there by van or U-Bahn, they gather to check out the latest hammers and spanners. Unfortunately, they sometimes get a bit upset when others get to the 8 inch adjustable wrenches before they do and things can become a bit tense. Luckily the best stores calm things down by playing acid house through their hi-tech sound systems."
