Reading Nothing to do with Arbroath today, there was a post about a British couple who’ve just finished converting an old Land Rover into a replica Chitty Chitty Bang Bang!  Four years of effort made their dream come true from the rather unpromising beginnings of a rather plain, £100 vehicle, created because the lady above has been a fan of Chitty since she saw the film as a child, and her hardworking gentleman has made it real for her.  They plan to drive the vehicle on a four month fundraising trip from the UK to Australia, raising money for the Earl Mountbatten Hospice, Multiple Sclerosis Society and the World Wildlife Fund.  It just tickles me that one of the more Steampunk vehicles, Chitty Chitty Bang Bang, has passed its MOT laughs And now, because I cannot help myself, links to clips from the film – the introduction (featuring the car heavily and the song of the title) and the breakfast scene (with the glorious breakfast contraption and a rather soppy song).  Be warned, both are tuneful in nature and depending on your situation and surroundings, you may want to turn them down.
