Winning Combination

September 12, 2021 Kim du Toit Drive Time, Fine Art

Longtime Readers will know that among my many passions in life (guns, beautiful women etc.) are two things especially: cars and fine art, especially paintings.

The latter two may seem a little at odds with each other, but there you go: each of the two inspires wonder in me.

If you follow my reasoning, and you should, then let me introduce you all to some of the works of artist Alan Fearnley:

One may think that Fearnley specializes in older cars; but one would be wrong:

One might also think that Fearnley specializes in classic pastoral themes, but again one would be wrong:

And finally, Fearnley doesn’t just do cars:

I have over a dozen of his pics saved as laptop wallpapers. Here’s one:

Longtime Readers will not be surprised at this choice.

All the above, and many more, can be found here. No need to thank me, it’s all part of the service.

Just as I’ve been remiss in not featuring Barbara Eden, I’ve been likewise with regard to the lovely Kelly Brook, seen here leaving work:

Here are a couple of earlier ones:

Woof, woof.

Glaring Omission

An email from Longtime Reader Preussenotto reads:

Still loving your blog, but I have to take issue with something I have noticed. There has been an appalling lack of Barbara Eden pictures for some time. Please correct this at your earliest convenience. Regards,

I thought something has been missing…

Hope that redresses the shortage somewhat.

As the Hungarian F1 Grand Prix is about to start, I’ll look to another kind of racing altogether, that being off-road rally competition.

And so we come to Madalena Antas of Portugal. Lest anyone think she’s just a pretty face, she specializes in desert-type rallies (e.g. the Dakar Rally, the deadliest race in the world).

She does have another side, however:

All that and a world-class driver as well… [sigh]

Ancient & Modern

No, this has nothing to do with architecture, except in its broadest [sic] sense. Here’s someone named Vanessa Hudgens (32), gamboling in the surf with Rollergirl (51):

Gotta say that while the kid is a sweetie, Heather Graham is much more toothsome. In a heartbeat, Simon.

Missing Post

You may all be wondering what happened to the Monday Funnies today.

Simple answer: it’s all the Brits’ fault.

Yesterday saw both the final round of the Open Championship at Royal St. George and the British F1 Grand Prix at Silverstone, so I was in a sports coma and couldn’t put together the usual collection of smutty cartoons, memes and scantily-clad women.

I shall endeavor to provide a replacement for tomorrow, although I should point out that Combat Controller is in town with many guns (as always), and some range time will no doubt feature in today’s schedule.

So I make no promises.

Still, to provide at least a token offering, here’s a collection saved in my files simply as “Blanca Suarez”:

I have no idea who she is, but that’s about par for the course (if you’ll excuse the analogy).
