Snotted and Blotted,

[OriginalBigAl]

On my way on one of my favourite roads to do a bit of shopping, I was cut up by a Renault Twingo , most likely a 980 cc 90bhp version cutting in from the left when he should have gave way ( dubious junction ) . Right yer bugger I'll have you ! Off he went , ruddy hell that's nippy , narrow bumpy bendy road , great traction , tracking the bends like on rails , he was gaining several metres every bend . After 4 kms he was about 300 metres ahead when we came to a T junction, cheeky bugger waited for me then turned left , ah ah same direction I want, wider smoother road , advantage moi ! No ! this is not happening , same again , gone has he, Deflated , defeated, after another 6km he has pulled out another 500m. This is the same road I've kept up with Golf GTIs and the like. Through the next village , baulked by traffic I caught up , Absolutely standard Twingo ( there are two hot versions) so I doffed my cap to the guy.
Sulking in the aisles of Lidl I thought I would commiserate later with a beer or two. What's this Steam Brew Imperial stout . Don't normally get this in France . Wow , a revelation , after 18 years of blond beers a stonker , things are starting to brighten up . Well recommended , another two and what Twingo.

Was the Twingo being driven by The Transporter?

I love a stout, but not in this weather!

You can't beat a good stout. I had a bottle of Theakston's Old Peculier last night and because the weather was on the warm side I chilled it first in the fridge.

Not much room in the boot for bodies, and no sideways action, perhaps ( MIA ) Bricktop has changed sides and nationality.?
Many years ago Guinness ( now ruined ) was my fall-back Winter drink ( not chilled ) but recent times and forced abstinence from the dark stuff meant a necessary chilling was required, and a return trip to stock up. I can secrete them around the house in all those unworn pairs of my wife's shoes, like a squirrel hoarding for winter..... somewhere she'll never find them????
