Russell, Maybe you should get a hat. It would hide that bright green hair
of yours.
Maybe that's why he thought you were strange.

PS I find other Range Rover owners don't return my waves either - is that
because I'm driving a Hillman?
PPS to all other readers, Russell doesn't have green hair. I'm
colour-blind, I think his hair is purple.

Years ago drivers of like cars used to wave at one another as they passed
on the road - or so I'm told since I'm too young to remember.
Today I was out in my Imp when I spotted a well cared-for Super Minx coming
toward me. The driver, a gentleman of about 60, was obviously a like-minded
enthusiast thought I, so I gave him a cheery wave. In return he stared at
me like I was some sort of weirdo. (Mind you, lotsa folks stare at me like
I'm a weirdo, but I think that might be different).
Sigh.
