Thirty-odd years in engineering means I've got a soft spot for anything with a working engine or a bit of proper history behind it. This lot's built up over years of Saturday afternoons before the match, usually with half an eye on where I'll get a decent dram after. No fluff here, just the places actually worth your bus fare into town.
