Meyrick up a tree
http://www.flickr.com/photos/7850159@N04/1252777242/
Firstly it's good news that both Andy and his dad Peter escaped from their two major shunts at Oulton last weekend. Now to the funny bit. Andy, having rolled over the tyre wall at Shell and ending up in the trees was approached by a marshal. Don't forget that Andy was hanging in the car by his belts and contemplating the damage to the - probably worth - £100,000 March 782 and the drop if the car fell out of the tree. Apparently the conversation went something like this. Marshal "You're Andy Meyrick aren't you?" Andy "Yes" Marshal "You used to do North West Formula Ford didn't you?" Andy "Yes" Marshal "We like our Formula Fords here at Oulton." Marshal continues "David Murphy is doing well this year isn't he?" Believe me this is true, because I was told it was and I'm very gullible. |

Well, true or not it's a damn good story and just the sort of thing you could imagine happening to you.

I'm sure it is true as I've noticed David Murphy going better this year.

It's such an unexpected event it deserves discussion.
It's also worth talking about a car ending up in a tree... |
