I did that by accident in my car once. Out in the countryside, I shot under a low railway bridge at around 40. As I went under it I saw a ford and just before I hit the water, I noticed two walkers leaning on the rail of the footpath. It was too late to slow down and the sheet of water went and soaked them from head to foot. I didn’t dare stop to apologise.

Yeah that's understandable. But when the whole road is a river and every car is constantly making a bow wave across the whole pavement, it's common sense to slow down a bit

Knowing my luck I'll get 5 copies of the book as my secret Santa this year as it'll definitely be in the £1 bin by then. So who would you rather have as your friend?

A man who is prepared to stand up to Robert Mugabe and that regime, risking his life in the process and knowing he'll be exiled from his homeland forever.

OR

A man who leaves his homeland because they want more black people to have equal opportunities and who cries and is devastated when someone sets up a parody Twitter account that gently teases him?

Oh yes and one of them owns an SV...

It's a hard choice but I'd have to go with the latter. I think old Bobby is just a bit misunderstood.
