11:38 EDT, 10 June 2021 A teenager has told how he stole his grandfathers shotgun while visiting him for Sunday lunch before shooting his friend in the face - but said he did not mean to cause serious harm despite firing from less than 5ft away. The boy, who lives near Woodbridge, Suffolk, said he sneaked the double barrelled Beretta gun out of the locked cabinet in his grandfathers bedroom and hid it in the garage so he could pick it up later.

THERE was an appalling mistake in last week’s Memories which had the engines of our old car spotters overheating. Sorry. We had a picture of a fancy sporty car which we said was a Jensen Interceptor, as could be seen in the second TV series of The Saint. But it wasn’t. Oh, no. “You have been bamboozled by series one of The Saint in which a Volvo P1800 coupe was driven by Simon Templar,” said Richard Stone. “In series two, he upgraded to a Jensen.” So our vehicle is a Volvo...

This is it. We’re putting the hours—nay, weeks—of debate to rest about what is probably the most important issue of our time: ranking the “Fast and the Furious” movie franchise from worst to best. A note before we begin: Anyone who sees these movies then bags on them for being stupid is either a fool or a liar, critics included. If you went into the theater expecting Pulp Fiction or Apocalypse Now, you’re a fool. The trailers (and the title) clearly tell you what to expect. If yo...

Many years ago I had €7000 squirreled away to put towards a Citroen DS21 Pallas. My wife decided the money would go towards buying a house. We still have the house but I havent got the car. Just looked and there are not many under €18000 in decent shape. I havent given up hope though so that would be.my buy.

Last modified on Tue 9 Mar 2021 05.40 EST It’s half a century since glam rock first dazzled Britain, and Slade had their first hit, Get Down and Get With It. All four members of the original lineup are alive and kicking, but Dave Hill is now the only one who trades under the name Slade. As is the way of rock bands, there have been sulks, tiffs and the odd tempestuous row. But today Hill is the very picture of Zen calm. While singer Noddy Holder is remembered as the one with the rasping voi...
