As opposed to being a dumb fuckwit who is unable to attribute quotes
correctly. Wot I actually said was:

What you saw was Chrith Hill trawling for pickups whilst on a visit to
Surrey to visit JF. It is a good job you did not stop, for hiding at the
side of the road was his paramour, Nelly Barker. These two often used to
meat up in the rolling Derby hills and I suspect they fancied a change of
scenery.

Blimey! This is just about the first time I've seen someone write more
than a word or two correctly in the language of the WOCABs, and, to
boot; "d'antan" is somewhat 'recherch

It's not especially recherche' for any UK male my age, because it featured in the film The Longest
Day. "Ou sont les neiges d'antan" was a code signal broadcast by the BBC in the run-up to D Day.
Another was "The long sobs of the violins"

Caterham _is_ the name of a great car, I was fortunate to own a Lotus
