Alan, if you saw my "money laundering" picture on Delta's tea break that was caused by one of my cats paying me back for sticking them in the cattery before Christmas !

No problem leaving the pics there Roger, but since my 'policing' of this has been minimal in recent days (sorry), I'm not sure where we are. Is there anyone out there who owes us a pic who actually wants to post one? Half a mind to start a new ' Picture Captions - 2011' using one of my old pics, that I've been looking for the opportunity to use.

Ok, Zef, if you can start the new 2011 Captions thread with your pic. In the meantime, we can vote on the captions for Gordon's pic and then close this one down?

I would have voted for Robyn but since he's going to be quicker than me this season I thought I'd rather not.

Just to fill you guys in regards the picture.
I was doing a 2 driver race at Silverstone with Norman Ricketts in his Beemer.
I had managed to get us up the front of the field but on my inlap I spun at Luffield owing to a massive oil leak from the filter housing soaking the L/H rear tyre.
We managed to fix it but lost about 6 laps and Norm went out for his thrash, but the problem returned (but not as bad) and I was having a look when Sue took the picture.
I advised him not to carry on but as it was his car he wanted to get his track time in and so we put some oil in it and out he went.
However 3 or 4 laps later he stopped out on the track facing a rather expensive rebuild by Lester Owen !

Gordon, that is just a fantastic little piece of motor racing history that would normally never get out into the public domain. This is what I love about this forum, thank you.

BTW I still think that whoever it was who suggested we do a caption based on Gordon's avatar had a cracking idea
