    Due to financial circumstances in recent years, we don't often get to go out for a drive just for the hell of it - mostly we're heading for a particular destination by the quickest route possible. This usually means the odd stop at a motorway services, and only for a brew. To seek out off-the-beaten-track places would be rather time-consuming, and time is often a commodity in short supply for us.

    The Les Routiers thing is definitely something we'll do though, next time we're in France.

    Do you have a recommendation for somewhere for lunch in Shrewsbury? I'm going there with Anita on Saturday to find her something nice for her birthday. She's thinking she would like a sapphire ring, so I guess we're going to be trekking round various jeweller's, though how she intends to fit that in as well as visiting the record shops I don't know
    I do hope your surname is not Harris
