If you missed out on my Pictorial History of Saab cars when it was published, from 13 November there’s a special Black Friday 20% discount on it. And on all Veloce’s other automotive books too! Head over to veloce.co.uk/and use code BF26 at checkout.

Service lamentable (encore une fois) de @DHLExpressFr : livraison d'un document important annoncée aujourd'hui (avec moins de 24H de préavis et sans précision de la tranche horaire), mais aucun passage. Nouvelle demande - en point retrait (à 9km) cette fois - pour demain.

Thanks to @CandSCmagazine for this review of my recent book on Saab. Later this year, it will also be published in Polish (a first for me!).

Mon petit dernier est arrivé ! Il sera disponible à la rentrée auprès de l'éditeur (veloce.co.uk/) ou sur Amazon.
Un grand merci à @Artcurial qui m'a confié la traduction de plus de 80 fiches pour leur vente de Rétromobile : artcurial.com/ventes/6144. De très belles pièces, dont la collection du collectionneur Paul-Emile B et la "Silver Collection".

Delighted to have contributed an interview with Patrick & Sylviane Peter, organisers of the Tour Auto and Le Mans Classic among many other great events , to the February 2025 issue of @octane_magazine .
Thanks to @Sinn_FFM for top service today, demagnetizing and checking over my watch free of charge while I waited.

I'm excited to announce that I am now signed up to write my next book, my ninth for @VeloceBooks , now an imprint of David & Charles! Lots of commentary work on the go just now, so I look forward to starting work on this later this year.

Hot off the presses from @GiuntiEditore in Italy, the most recent book I have translated, on the stunningly beautiful Pagani Utopia.
A hotel to avoid in Lausanne, the #AlphaPalmiers: lousy service with no hot water on day 1, room not cleaned during stay. Too few staff at reception and no authority to deal with problems. No manager on duty at weekend, although hotel was full. This hotel needs a new director!

0/10 for visitors to @The_RPS by car. No signs off main road and if you overshoot you end up in Bristol charge zone. Once found, visitor parking poorly signed and @RingGo_parking requires registration of account to pay (no reply on advertised phone #). Please do better!

Sunshine and great driving roads in Iceland today on the @RALLYSTORY Island Rally. Overnight stop in Siglufjordur, with a visit to the Herring Museum coming up before dinner tonight (I wonder what might be on the menu?).

Does this remind anyone else of Microsoft Bob? Or perhaps better still Microsoft Rover, a "search companion" for Windows XP's File Search function?
