A dangerous driver and an impossible treasure hunt (Rousse)
I was not pleased when the driver switched seats with SPL and allowed her to drive along the narrow roads of rural Aberdeenshire. Although she held a driver’s licence, SPL rarely took the wheel of a car, and it showed. … Continue reading

Gifts and guests shattered in Sunderland (Rousse)
M and AP hosted their joint 60th birthday and ruby wedding anniversary party in Sunderland – a place with which they had no connection whatsoever. I travelled most of the way there by car up the A1, finishing the journey … Continue reading

An unwanted mushroom sofa (Rousse)
I was anxious that TPR had parked the car too close to the cliff edge, but he was actually well within the white lines, so we left it there. As we walked back to the house, I spotted my Auntie … Continue reading

Squirrel zoo escapee helps with hopeless antique car (Rousse)

Shorty gets lost with a stranger in the Scottish highlands (Rousse)
‘Hey Shorty!’ I heard someone shout behind me. A course figure lumbered into view. I couldn’t tell whether it was a man or a woman, but s/he was definitely calling me. ‘I need a lift to work’ said she, for … Continue reading
Highland spirit triplets, hopeless handmade goods, an over-priced exhibition, and very public toilets (Rousse)
A set of Highland triplet spirits danced across the heather as they sought to reunite me with my mother and sister S after I came off the narrow single track road in our hire car. As soon as we found … Continue reading
Solo bikes, tandems, and trandems shelter from heavy Hebridean traffic (Rousse)
The Isle of Harris was now such a popular holiday destination that hundreds of cars and camper vans surged through Tarbert and up into the hills whenever the CalMac ferry docked. The traffic was so heavy that all cyclists knew … Continue reading
Kidnap on the Otley Road (Rousse)

Angry driving and hypnotism (Rousse)
TPR was in a filthy mood. He expressed his anger by driving the tiny car at top speeds through highland villages, egging on the motorists that were approaching from the opposite direction to race him through roadworks. He eventually dumped … Continue reading
The Princess Royal, a self-driving car, and a road traffic accident (Rousse)
While Princess Anne drove, I told her all about my new self-driving car. ‘It’s amazing in multi-storey car parks’, I boasted. ‘It can even loop other vehicles when coming down the exit ramp’. The only drawback that I had noticed … Continue reading
