Classic Caption Competition

I have received this picture from an 'outside source' with the suggestion that it would make a good caption competition, endorsed by the subject I understand.

I take no credit/blame for any resultant libel proceedings'

Have at It!

lotustwincam should be qualifying in the top 10 on the grid
In case of driver malfunction, the re set button is situated on the back of the scull. A tap with a blunt object usually does the trick.

Took me a while to get the Thor connection, clearly a man who knows his Viking history.

Not too sure about his poetic skills.

That's the first time I can remember the lisp (lithp) impediment being deployed in a humorous way without some sort of innuendo attached to it.

Congratulations Colin!

I've know a version of that rhyme for years which always sprang to mind when I used my copper/hide mallet.
The none I know goes:
The Thunder God went for a ride upon his favourite filly,
"I'm Thor" he cried
the horse replied
"Use a thaddle thilly!"

I wondered when the term 'mallet' would come up.

I confess....an unashamed plagiarism of an old rhyme but I couldn't resist, given the brand name of the hammer.

En tous cas Robert… as being a Gordini team fan dont you think the "tonneau" should be bleu-blanc-rouge and not red-white-blue… This moves me upside down!! May be you're in need of some aspirin …*
As to the first pic, I thought you can remove any auction object after the hammer is down… not before! Or may be we have found the ultimate demist system
No pics from the bbq party? Chocking! Greasy lens can't be an acceptable excuse.
