This is a very funny post, and I've been racking my brain trying to come up with something equally cheeky to respond with- but I can't.

I'll bite even though it's another vain social media craze for pointless people to be worshipped for looking a certain way over 10 years!

Slightly related to this; my last new engine (Silver Lady) was bought in 2008...

Interestingly, this annoying fad has been theorised to have started to test age identification software on social media. Quite scary how the general public have lapped this up if it's true!

The Gloucester Transport History website is hosted by a family friend who used the site as a form of advertisement. It all went for a good cause!
Unfortunately the aging (and reducing) family called a halt to the weekends and the LVLR was completely rebuilt to it's present form.
