Supermarine Spitfire , Kawasaki Z1 and the Aston Martin DB8 are three of the most wonderful and elegantly designed pieces of automotive art - ever , and In my opinion all of them have the definite lines of a woman , but that’s probably just me :)
I’ve personally owned several Z1’s , but not an Aston or even a Spitfire for that matter , but its like that nine year old kid seeing a Harley for the first time and thinking “gotta have one “ , and all those years later – well I’m sitting here with the ownership of several under my belt , try telling that nine year old that fact - then , and he’d have probably have told you to p*ss off :)
Saying that this particular cheeky kid could have born and be living in a third world country and aspire to - a descent place to live , regular food and clean water, or a run down council estate in the U.K. and aspire to escape from their surroundings to a better life .
Thus the Aston , Z1 and Spitfire become absolutely meaningless in this light , and of course this reminds me how well off I actually am - relatively speaking - compared to some , and this is probably just due to a mere geographical fluke. Looking back on the above , It’s strange how this starts on one topic and ends on a completely different one , but that’s life I suppose…………………
Five Second Politico
I’m glad politicians are seeking either to cap , or indeed stop bonuses paid to managers within the various financial institutions around the world , which have been bailed out using taxpayers money , as we can’t have those who were actually responsible for the global recession being rewarded for their actions – could we :)
