NORTHENER SETS TIME JUST SECONDS SLOWER THAN HOLLYWOOD ACTOR

摘要

This diffident young man hasn't bought his own pint since he got home to Theckmonsdale Wallop from the TopGear test track. Why not? Because he set the fastest time of the day and made damn sure everyone knows about it (or he should have done, if he's got any sense). Northern by birth and northern by dress sense, Simon Whippet couldn't have been more shocked if you'd plugged him into the mains. "I'm shocked," said Simon after being told he was the quickest driver of the day, He also admitted he was "proper chuffed" and "right made up" and then disappeared for a chip butty.
