Owl on test for @CovAutoJ magazine project. Claimed 28mph top speed, but I squeezed a mighty 33 out of it 😎. Also caused a real stir among the public! #citroen #journalism #toaster #owl

Looking at some of the science behind the way cars move in this morning's @CovAutoJ session. (That Evo was good fun, BTW).

New year, new course module: looking forward to getting into magazine, web and video projects with @CovAutoJ and @maglobaljourno students between now and March, and the Autos will be finding out about road testing and car photography.

Sad to hear Sue Baker has died. I invited her to @covcampus a few years back to talk to students and she was very generous with her time. She had some great stories to tell of her pre-Top Gear days covering motorsport - and taking part, too, as a rally navigator.

Karfu’s all-encompassing guide is here, exploring everything you need to know about the latest vehicle access type: car subscription. At just under 14,000 words, we think it's the most comprehensive guide to car subscription in the UK written to date!

So sad to hear this. Ian was very supportive of @CovAutoJ and up-and-coming motoring writers in general, and a champion of the Midland Group's Phil Llewellin and John Connor awards for young motoring journos. Also, a thoroughly nice bloke.

Talking fuels and combustion with @CovAutoJ this morning. Plus, what beach ball has to do with exhaust emissions.

So you ring them, they don't recognise the number and don't pick up. Old school journos trot out "pick up the phone" but it's not that simple any more.
A very British exchange: "Give them a ring" "I've emailed" "Be quicker to ring" "I've sent a text as well" "Just ring them" "I'll send another email"
