2079.0. "Damon Hill ??" by SEDSWS::BOOTH () Fri Apr 30 1993 12:51

    I had a very unnerving experience just a week ago which has quite
    changed my attitude to motor sports altogether.
    I was doing my weekly shopping in the pedestrian only shopping mal in
    Tewkesbury, when to my horror, a spotty boy on roller skates sped past
    me, nearly knocking me over, gobbed (inaccurately) in the direction of
    a waste bin, and disappeared into TOYSRUS.
    
    
    Imagine my further horror when, last saturday, I saw Damon Hill being
    interviewed by Dr John, and realised -YES- it was the same spotty brat
    who had behaved so abysmally the other day.
    
    What ever happened to the birch ?
