Yes. The Racing Team Netherlands Shirt I bought a few years ago was only worn for about 10 seconds, because it had turned black in that short amount of time. Not a good idea to wear yellow.

Ahh ...... those who have never been to Scotland in the summer!

For many years, I followed the Scottish rally for all 3/4 days of the event, sleeping in the car etc etc ......

Believe me when I say, you really, really did NOT want any midges in your car over night! Little Bas****s!
