An old tape a friend had...
Four of us went on a driving holiday to Barcelona back in '91 (I think). One of the lads had a tape with a Danny Rampling set from Glastonbury that he had recorded off Radio1 - excellent tunes the whole set, which we listened to many times (after chipping in to buy a new car stereo!).
One time springs to mind in particular:
Heading towards Barcalona on the toll road doing 100, passed by a Porche, caught up with the Porche, then one of the lads opened up the window to take a pic! Queue all paper etc blowing round the inside of the car like mad. After taking the pic, all of us (inc driver) looked forward to see a concrete barrier dead ahead, with the road splitting left & right! Disaster avoided (just) & continued on our way listening to kickin tunes.
I have since converted the tape to cd to preserve the memories. I even left the news clip on it: "John Major has warned the Tory rebels to stop rocking the boat, unless they want to cost the party the next election..."
