David – we’re going to miss you when you move to be Chaplain at Fettes. Meanwhile, when we came out of the Diocesan Review Meeting in Dunfermline, we were greeted by the sight of the faithful Passat and the Oriental Princess together. Combined age about 23 – combined mileage must be about 250000 – MOT’s passed must be around 17. It’s bangernomics and it’s greenish. Bangernomics, BTW, is the discipline of owning and running a car to the point where it has no monetary value. One therefore avoids the input of many barrels of oil in making a new one. Also and probably more importantly one negates the single greatest motoring cost – depreciation.
