Phlog

Week 09, 2007 commencing on February 26th. Second half.

No Atlantic, although the front looks like her.
No pebbles either.

There is a synagog nearby and today was the festival of Purim,
we were told. So they had a small, noisy, very gay (joyous) parade.
Adults and children in bizarre costumes. A couple HumVees,
a fire engine, a truck bearing a Klezmer Band (mostly electric guitar)
and naturally a cotton candy machine, and an amazing
1960 fibreglass bicycle. (Lewis)

No metal frame, just the fibreglass shell for support.
The owner of this creation said that only a few hundred
were built. Why the Western outfit? He also collects
toy guns, cap pistols, one of which he brought along
in a holster on his right hip. And the there was
this wonderful '46 Cadillac limo. (Lewis)

Loving spoonful. (Guy)

Drove his mother around. (Guy)

Drove his friend around. (Guy)

Still waiting for Santa to turn up. (Marjolein)

Just dozing off doesn't make one a bum I tell you! (Marjolein)

No croissant with marmelade for him.
nor muffin, nor bagel.

Sunday morning 09:15, hazy and cold.

No pebble beach in Vlissingen. (Guy)

Not a contestant in the AutoRAI Parade
a Bugatti Atlantic on Pebble Beach.
No pebbles to write about.

Later it became busy around the AutoRAI Parade.

The new Jeep Compass in AMS!

New Opel Roadster.

Antique Opel GT.

Police trap or traffic marshalls,
to escort lost drivers in the
AutoRAI Parade with special cars
scheduled to ride from Rotterdam to
Amsterdam on Saturday the 3rd.

US$660,000 Tramontana supercar set to begin production.
The law of averages suggests the gestation period
for a new elite sportscar marque ranges from two to three years
between first sighting and available product, and
the Tramontana looks set to fall well within this time-frame
despite liberal lashings of leading edge technologies.
