I certainly would not criticise (who's he kidding) the running of the event, but like some older types regret the loss of the spirit of the past, when things were friendlier somehow.
We should not fall out over such trivial matters, but I am sorry, you do not qualify for 'Crusty Old Git Status'

I'll survive , just . But let's forget that stars and 'slebs' are no stranger to Goodwood. On my early visits I saw lots of names like Gerry Marshall , Mark Knopfler , Rowan Atkinson , Jack Brabham , Derek Bell et al . As for 'idols', leave that to lesser meetings. I don't do hero worship , heaven forfend, but it's an eyeopener for this cynical old git to see the sort of hysteria you get at BTCC and F1.
