| It's very kind of Alan to share his knowledge with us in this way. Am I the only person wishing he would STOP SHOUTING? |

No, you aren't the only person. I think it was proved by the people who designed the standard British road signs that using lower case lettering where appropriate and capitals only for proper nouns and first words of sentences is much easier to read quickly. |

Hi All,
Sorry to have been an unwitting source of irritation but as my eyesight isn`t so good I use the larger format not realising that this may distress some readers.
I hope that you find the blog interesting as that is my intention.
Best,
Alan |

Hi Alan,
It's just that we have to work a bit harder to read it, but that's hardly onerous.
They do say that activities that make us exercise our brains are good for us, so we get that benefit as well as the benefit of your knowledge of vintage Bentleys. A win-win then?
Do keep blogging.
Best wishes,
Stephen |
