@scottiebateman My issue with reclining seats is far more serious. Yet again the person in front of me on the last NCE-LHR last night reclined faster than Green F1 car said occupant works for throwing my full plastic glass of canned red wine all down me …. Fortunately it was not the Miami !

@MrFamilyOffice @McDiarmidDesign Mine was a little different…

[Richard Shead @RichardShead]

@JSS779 @embraer And one thing that is blindingly obvious for most onboard is their carry on is too large for the overhead 😂

[Richard Shead @RichardShead]

@McDiarmidDesign @MrFamilyOffice Ha ! At least we had good reason ;)

@AutoPap @realstevedragon The Up GTi has been on for nearly a week ( Autotrader) and over 700 views and not a sniff. My assumption is price ( at market value) and images which I will improve but have not had time and it’s not stopped raining! If it were a boat I would have sold it by now ;)

@AvonandsomerRob Not quite, I still went for something red and Italian…..okay designed in Switzerland.

@freddiecamp Spot on for this time of year. I’m down Wednesday for day although working !

[Richard Shead @RichardShead]

A bit cheeky but if any of your Up GTi followers are looking for a late black 5 door example then look no further! Mine is officially on market and open to all sensible conversations @AutoPap

@freddiecamp Which region is that vineyard in ? Always good to get recommendations on way down

@Rod__Mason Mine was back in September for yacht show but I have seen a number of cars on decks for this weekend. Lots of teams charter yachts for the duration of F1 and a number of cars are on there for this reason. It should be obvious who charters what ;)

[Richard Shead @RichardShead]

@CYSSUPERYACHTS @AutoPap @hjwakerley But it is electric;) ish …

[Richard Shead @RichardShead]

Everyone’s putting cars on yachts this weekend, we did it back in September;) @AutoPap @hjwakerley

[Richard Shead @RichardShead]

@RickParfittJnr @ListerLawrence What above your old Vitara ?

[Richard Shead @RichardShead]

@hjwakerley I love the fact that absolutely nobody takes any notice of the no photography signs 😂

[Richard Shead @RichardShead]

@BobFromAccounts @ClarkeMicah This is all you need, perfect two car setup ;) keeps everyone happy…..

[Richard Shead @RichardShead]

@hjwakerley The was a black F80 parked two along from that white one yesterday!

[Richard Shead @RichardShead]

@hjwakerley @AutoPap Ha indeed ! We’ve also had a number of Bentleys on the bow too. The F40 was a Grand Prix stunt if I recall. The boat was also red although not Ferrari red !

[Richard Shead @RichardShead]

@AutoPap You and me both 😂😂 if I was at all envious or jealous I couldn’t be in yachting. They are fascinating objects and an incredibly interesting and rewarding industry from the painters, carpenters, electricians etc and that’s before you even get to crew and of course owners.
