Cars?
Yes, cars. Well one car to be precise, on this occasion anyway. And what was this occasion? A weekend of music events held at Caldicot Castle, Monmouthshire.
It's starting to look as though live, open air, music will be an annual event at Caldicot. Regular readers may recall I attended the Status Quo concert held there last August. This year's headline act were Little Mix who I have no interest in whatsoever, but apparently the event was a sell-out. Back to the point of this story...
Tilly likes to visit the castle grounds at Caldicot because of the number of squirrels that live there so we're regular visitors. Contractors are ground staff were still in the middle of their clean-up operations when we popped in a few days ago and skip loads of detritus were being collected and sorted. Some of the waste is recyclable of course, though most of it looked destined either landfill or furnace. The one real oddity was this:
I assume this old VW Golf is in no way an original medical vehicle, despite the very convincing paint job, decals, blue lights, dash mounted radio, etc.
NOTRUF 112 (Emergency Call 112) is a firefighting simulation game developed in cooperation with and modelled on the fire brigade of Mülheim, Germany (Mülheim has one of the largest and most modern fire stations in Europe).
Someone obviously went to a lot of trouble rigging up this car to look like an artefact from the game, which kind of confuses me since it seems to have been abandoned on the Caldicot Castle FC pitch!
Looks terribly lonely doesn't it? I wonder if the owner has any plans to recover it?
