I find it sad that so few people seem to know who he is.

Well, I sent my attempt at answers to the last quiz and have heard nothing. I can only assume that my answers were so feeble that I've not even qualified to be mentioned in dispatches with regard to the Stupido Club...

Something I cant understand, you are so many producing huge efforts to join THE Stupido Club, why do you try to look wise and knowledgeable? Once in… Be proud of your membership!

No problemo, Viva, you deserve the best! Mind you that among the 109 pages, this question has already been asked. By me!
Cant remember the answer though!

Viv, sorry about your reply, but I have no record of receiving anything from you, and you know I would not miss a chance to humiliate you if I could.

Send it again, and give us a laugh.

Your one true mate,

Bauble.

Cher Mohammad I appreciate that you never know the answer to any of my weirdo puzzles, but please refrain from trying to make me look bad I don't need any help with that, thank you.


Try Richard Seaman and you might get out of the club!

having recently read his Biography, I did wonder if hew would be something to do with this.
I have re-sent (hopefully) my previous stab in the dark which for some reason hadn't been sent to you...

I know I have set a few real stinkers lately, making a number of people feeling stupido, and ashamed at their lack of knowledge, so to make amends I offer something simple. All you have to do is to match a name to a car, and if possible why, I expect a flood of correct answers;

Innes Ireland.
Mike Hawthorn
Jim Russell
Jim Clark
Lance Macklin
Don Parker.

Crumbs! Why do I bother? Not a single stab at an answer. So

1 There's no smoke without fire.

2 About face!

3 Accidents will happen.

4 End of an ERA.

5 A miss is as good as a mile.

6 After you, Claude.


See how easy t was?
