Not very good at fractions, did I mean a third of your age?
Even someone three quarters of his age would be a man (just)

Very brave man to tackle that road in that car in those weather conditions!

Bet the Lakes looked absolutely stunning.

Utter respect for driving in those conditions

Give a thought as well to the lady in the passenger seat. She, also, is beyond the first flush of youth, but never tells me, "You can't do that!"

On a question of sexual equality, why is it that she is still as beautiful as the day I married her, and I'm a bald headed grizley old man?

Dennis. Respect

Certainly something I would have thought twice about but good to see you pulled it off and had a good time to boot.

Dennis, oh Dennis!

1) Major respect to you for not letting the weather get in your way. Were you sporting winter tyres at all?

2) What a sweet thing to say about your dear wife

3) She is a better woman than me not to exclaim some concern at all your adventurous driving!

Well done that man!

Great stuff Dennis

I know that part of the world very well indeed, in fact I once had the brakes go on a 2CV whilst coming down Kirkstone Pass on the Windermere side. I imagine the effect was very similar to your descent in the S2000.
