Running In

 Before we get to the outdated-cultural-reference part of this blog, I should say that I used to work with a South African guy, who was friendly and charming and once helped me to get home when I'd drunk too much.

Over the course of a week and a half I've driven my car 1000 miles, slowly, and without holding constant revs, to run in a newly rebuilt engine. I've been karting in Menheniot, I've been to Weston Super Mare for coffee, I've been to Exeter for pizza, I've been to Redruth to pick up oil, I've been to Collumpton for McDonalds, I've been to Bradford-on-Avon for a house call, and I've done a lap of Dartmoor. (outdated-cultural-reference:) But I've never met a nice South African.
