Oh dear!

In my innocence, I once saw something about 'Dogging' in a wood near where I used to live. Got quite excited thinking it was some sort of dog training going on there. But of course it wasn't. Luckily I didn't turn up with the dogs I had at the time.

I saw that documentary about the autistic boy - it was incredibly moving.

My daughter and SIL went to see Rush a few days ago, and they really enjoyed it. I was worried that the relationship between Hunt ("well actually Murray....!") and Lauda would be portrayed wrongly, but it has been handled very well apparently and shows them as being good friends off track, which is quite right.

I will look for that book, it sounds good.

Hi I admired James Hunt,even though he sometimes seemed to love himself,but when the chips were down he dragged Lauda from the car absolutely incredible,then I read after his death he had a heart condition,maybe that was why he lived life to excess.Lauda doesnt drive competively but he is a pilot,I think if I had used all my lifes up would rather do something safe like looking after the Roses.Gemini54
