Have we done a parking for Brum thread yet? on 22:43 - Nov 3 by hoppy | Possibly… |
I hate that arriviste piece of sheet. Makes out like he's a Brummie as he swans around the canals near the Convention Centre, then p sses off back home to the Cotswolds every night. The Jamie Oliver of the Midlands. Suffolk Trivia fans may be interested to know that Brum was built by former Ipswich Witches rider Rex Garrod, who was also the brains behind Robot Wars legend Cassius, the first robot with an effective Self Righting Mechanism (SRIMEC). I believe he then also acted as consultant to the Ipswich based Chaos team. He died a few years ago. One of Suffolk's great left field geniuses, along with adopted Suffolkian Tim Hunkin, who he worked with on The Secret Life of Machines. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-suffolk-48205106 [Post edited 4 Nov 2023 11:04]
