Colourful socks are much better than boring black ones! Especially when you mix them up :)

No, because you're just not that type of chap.

Yes I do but I was thinking in terms of mechanical sympathy for your own car. Road cars just don't take the abuse well.

Suggestions:
Track day
Day fishing off shore
Weekend 'blokey' event.
off road driving course
new gadget

Fishing is a good call - we went out from that place in the Marina and my son caught a freezer-full of John Dory or something........ bit hot now (we went in Feb).

Absolute sacrilege

Thanks everyone for all your ideas, off to check out the YAS race track, and Scamp if he needs a golf partner you will be the first to know :)
