Show me Something.....

Life is a cabaret they say, and whilst others were taking in the great petroleum shindig at the NEC, I was at Liskeard Public Hall, co-producing the Callington Young Farmers entry in the tri-annual cabaret competition. Dance routines, sketches and songs, all assisted with superking size sheets, skimpy outfit and air conditioning ducting. It's like Britain's Got Talent, but without Simon Cowell, and more rounds! So what little hair I had left was pulled out dealing with diva like strops and people who think they knew better.... An idiot with a little knowledge is a dangerous thing, and how there wasn't a murder on Saturday I do not know.

Former national champion Chris Cuming also once starred in one of these, in drag, 6 years ago. Next year its a pantomime..... Speaking of which...


NEW CARS

Panto villian Dave Polley (38) has a new tar car to play with. After spending his partial season 2013 using tar cars and other cars from the DP stable, a new steed for the hard stuff came out....


Colour scheme was obviously inspired by a sweet of choice.
Novice of the Year and barely out of nappies, Scot's Rennie brand new motor

No Whalley - 2013 King of the Pringle Kelvyn
Another car from the Menheniot Maestro the Higmeister - the returning Peter McCallum (187) fresh from being spanners for Wullie Draeger!
Irish eyes are driving - Chambers new one

Brett Townsend's new one

Another stunning paint job from AJ Thompson....

There's ya man Tam

Dozer's back. Sarge sez luv you bye.


NEW FIXTURES

Knockhill is a casualty this year. An absolute shame as it denies disaster merchants such as Messrs Mead, Priddle and Middler the chance to build sandcastles in the kitty litter. I also wanted to take in some stock car at Knockhill as part of a Scottish week....
Arena is back for a one-off, taking in a qualifying round, so expect a long delay that it'll probably stretch into two meeings, although the purple
Same old Bristol/St Day clash, which is disappointing, but a compromise has been reached and one Westcountry track loses a prime bank holiday meeting, with Easter being Bristol/Taunton, Mayday being St Day/Bristol, August sees St Day/Taunton and Bristol missing out. All miss one, so one clash, and hopefully incentives to get drivers down to Bristol and St Day with a Taunton to do on Whistun is the best we could hope for.
Intriguing is the Scottish F1 weekend again, taking in Lochgelly. A great opportunity missed to get the F2's on the bill, and an opportunity to show its wares.
Having the semi final meeting on Bank Holiday Saturday is baffling.

NEW ACQUAINTANCES?

Fresh from Lively's showbiz hobnobbing with Alain McNish and all the showbiz hoi polloi at Autosport, I thought I'd share my showbiz hobnobbing, as in the pre cabaret gatherin in Louis Tea Rooms on Kit Hill, just outside of Callington I'm bumped into a reporter and 2 presenters from the local news programme.

Showbiz eh....Keep going in them garages - we'll have a few updates soon enough!
