Tricks that old racers get up to after retirement

[jackiewilson]

Maybe you get the idea ——-just the bare facts . Clear print—-great pictures —- all it needed was the storyteller and instead of being GOOD BOOKS—————they could have been GREAT BOATING READS .

Boris announced the first OMICRON death —-today. No details as to whether there was an underlying health problem ?????—-young —-old —-run over by a bus maybe ??????
I was under the impression that this was a highly infectious new killer strain of covid . Yet reports from South Africa keep coming in that its not so bad after all—— in fact , not as bad as a dose of the flu ????????? No deaths YET.!!!!!!!! Big problem is —the media has this insatiable appetite for bad news so everything is bad news .

Did get five minutes to myself to sit down and peruse MIKE WARDS —EUROPEAN CHAMPIONSHIP 1938-2019. MAKES FOR SOME INTERESTING READING —. ANGELO MOLINARI —- DEITER SCHULTZE —DEITER KOENIG —- ASWELL AS ALL THE ENGLISH JOCKEYS .
at £55-00 for all three books its a steal—— poor guy ain’t never going to get rich at those prices —- for thirty years research ——-??????????

is there an isbn on them or does he have a web site?

is there an isbn on them or does he have a web site?

You can find all the information you want on ROY COOPERS —-FAST ON WATER.
[ INTERNATIONAL STANDARD BOOK NUMBER].—- afraid i had to look up the meaning !!!!!
End of the day its bloody good value for money at £55 delivered —— there is a distinct lack of powerboating literature in the world —- thats why i think i just might get away with my gleanings on the subject.

This a couple of pages from MIKE WARDS WORLD CHAMPIONSHIPS ——-1934-2019.

WELL-WELL- WELL. Looks like Bernie crapped his bucketful . World has finally seen first hand just how good a manipulator he really is . I have told you for years just how corrupt Formula 1 car racing really is , very few believed me .
Bernie is one of the worlds richest men—— also one of the most ruthless—- billionaires DIDNT get rich by being nice . Al Capone and the godfather were nice compared to Bernie Ecclestone . Best part is , he‘s 91 years old and still doing it. When F! Needs a shot in the arm —- who do they turn to, ? BE .
redundant for two years —-not an asset any more —- until they need him —- guys a miracle worker —-
. Guess Lewis really did upset the establishment — Black—- seven times world champion— more race wins than anyone else —- Schumachers record going down the tube !!!! What to do ?????? Call the fairy godmother —-Bernie. There still may be a post script —- we will wait and see —- me — im just not remotely interested any more !!!!!!!! I was done with F1 many years ago.

I DESPAIR —- Always said Boris was a buffoon, plus he couldn’t keep his dick in his pants. Seven kids and rising !!!!!!! Now i would normally not hold that against him — but he is such a feckin dingleberry in all senses . Hits the panic button soon as somebody whispers VARIANT. Has not an iota of COMMON SENSE [along with most politicians]. Even if they voted him out — i can‘t see even one contender as a replacement .
Only the one fatality from the OMICRON so far in the UK but warnings the NHS „“COULD BE“ overwhelmed . Just chuck another few billions at it [ not enough cash in the world to sate the appetite of the insatiable NHS].
As i sit back and cogitate ——-i realise that until COMMON SENSE returns [in almost all walks of life ] there can be no UPTURN .
Am i the only person in the world to see its not the nurses—doctors or medical care thats killing the NHS —its the ADMINISTRATION— Work the service for a year —- retire with a Million handshake — then sign on as a private entrepreneur????????? All at the tax payers expense !!!!! How good is that.

WORLD CHAMPIONSHIPS 1934/2019 is proving a very Interesting read .. if you read between the lines and draw your own conclusions , its easy to follow the. Evolution of power craft though the ages . In all its various guises . I do hope some of you buy the books—- they really are worth reading . At £55 for all three — its no contest —— best value for money out there this year .

Fredie K helped me get through the Denver and Orlando Airports—

Again—I was the OLDEST Fart😂

[jackiewilson]

I was once told that the quickest way through any terminal was in a cripple cart —- get a big guy [one Like FRED ] to push you, everybody moves ——VIP treatment all the way——- of course —if you’ve Turned 90 that helps— and the fact you damn well earned it.
Still got a way to go before i reach that milestone Gene !!!!! I can still get into trouble without really trying. Spent all Wednesday morning doing my DRIVER AWARENESS COURSE —— Penance for exceeding the legal speed limit in Great Britain. [again]

Bernie Ecclestone doesn’t think that Hamilton deserves his Knighthood for services to motor racing >

That COMES from the greatest musician off all time [FIDDLER AND ARRANGER]— for over fifty years Bernie was ringmaster and fixer and all things devious in F1. Of course he did become a MULTI BILLIONAIRE in the process..
Fact is he was always a Warren Street car trader —- never gained respectability—- he didn’t care —he got very-very rich— crapped on everyone — now he’s pissed because Lewis got a knighthood and he didn’t. You think im kidding —— believe me i am not . Read his autobiography. I’M NO ANGEL. —-CAPONE AND LUCIANI were merely “ ENFENTE TERRIBLE” compared to Bernie —— he could—would— and did fix everything. Right up to last weekend’s fiasco. But he brought life back to a flagging F1 scene.
