…fill it with bleach and squirt the bleach on your back tyres. Then rev the engine, drop the clutch and pull fantastically smokin’ wheelspins. It’s the last Saturday of the month which always meant a trip to the Chelsea Bridge Cruise where proud owners would parade their beautiful 1950s American and customised cars. Wannabes like me would arrive in our Capris and Cortinas just to gawp. But this wonderful “furry dice” culture has all but disappeared. Speed cameras, road humps, draconian parking restrictions and ludicrous insurance premiums for young drivers have all meant that this great big boulevard of pleasure, open to my generation, has been closed to my son’s. Though you can still get a bottle of bleach for about 19p in Tesco.
Take one squeezy bottle…..
