@ThePollitt Fingers crossed for you Chris (and family). Here's hoping when we come and see the mighty 827 at the NEC you have a huge property related smile on your face!!!

[Paul Bottomley @pbottoml77]

@ThePollitt @ClassicMotorNEC Will be a highlight of the show for me. Looking forward to seeing it for real!!

[Paul Bottomley @pbottoml77]

@LateBrakeShow That's because you're a genuinely nice guy who's opinion I respect (ignoring the a/c thing)

Long time watcher, podcast listener and attendee of LBS live Manchester last year.

@ThePollitt Definitely mx6 for the creamy smooth v6. Probe: silly name and awful US spec interior. Calibra: looks lovely, but I couldn't get past the Cav in drag part. Accord: a generation too early for me, v6 of the next generation was a lovely thing

[Paul Bottomley @pbottoml77]

@ThePollitt Happy New Year to you and yours, really enjoyed the sagas of the 800 and ZX this year. As someone who also struggles with their mental health you have been an inspiration. A massive genuine thank you from me.

Really brilliant day for me and George @LateBrakeShow yesterday.
Johnny and Chops you have done an amazing job. Thanks @sniffpetrol for signing my trilogy!!

[Paul Bottomley @pbottoml77]

@sniffpetrol See you in the morning!!! Already booked and I have all 3 boring car trivia volumes crying out for rude words to be written in them!!!

[Paul Bottomley @pbottoml77]

@Carpervert @sniffpetrol @LateBrakeShow Tickets booked for me and my eldest yesterday......on that side of things.

@EmmaKennedy I take pride in my career and will always be courteous and respectful to other road users and customers alike, its a shame therefore that we are mostly treated as scum by everyone we encounter.

[Paul Bottomley @pbottoml77]

@EmmaKennedy Professionals, and should be treated as such

[Paul Bottomley @pbottoml77]

@EmmaKennedy To work 75 hours a week and be away form home Monday to Friday with very limited facilities. The loss of the cheap Eastern European labour has resulted in increased pay for us, but the industry as a whole has not valued its drivers for many years. We are (well most of us) genuine

[Paul Bottomley @pbottoml77]

@y4hvcs The work set each and every day is both varied and interesting. Personally I think everyone involved at HVCS has done a brilliant job in extremely trying circumstances. Thank you all

@greg_jenner There favourite story is of Henry II getting so angry he ate his own mattress!!

[Paul Bottomley @pbottoml77]

@greg_jenner We do, went to the cinema to see it on release and have watched it a couple of times since, think I've pointed out your distinguished cameo appearance every time :-)
I'm not a creepy stalker honest, just really grateful you've helped me share my love for history with my boys.

[Paul Bottomley @pbottoml77]

@greg_jenner Ordered yesterday, so still waiting for it to arrive. Have listened to all of You're Dead To Me at least twice. Absolutely brilliant. Having to settle for this with my two boys at the moment......

@max_defrost @harrismonkey Video and pics of the resto please, my first car was a knackered mk1 AX GT. It was a total shed, but I'd buy it back tomorrow if I could, but i fear G362PNA was cubed years ago.
