Smart Cars Aren't Just for Christmas - David Ward

David Ward has spent most of his life travelling the globe, with travel, cars, and music as his guiding passions. In 2007, fate—or perhaps just a strong drink—brought him together with a 2003 Brabus smart car (equipped with a radio!). This unlikely pairing led him into the thrilling world of competitive rallies, as they took on a prestigious European event and won, earning them a spot in car enthusiasts’ hearts.Not content to stop there, David and his trusty smart car embarked on more daring adventures. They raced overnight from Land’s End to John O'' Groats, tackled Scotland’s NC500 in the dead of winter, and even caught the attention of TV and film. When the smart car needed a rest, David carried on, navigating 3,000 miles around Europe in a vintage 1972 beach buggy. Later, he took another smart car on a 7,500-mile trek from Europe’s northernmost tip to its southernmost point.David’s adventures, narrated with humour and warmth, capture the joy and resilience of exploration. His journey proves that the spirit of adventure is alive, no matter the vehicle.

The Twelve Dels of Christmas - David Jason

"What a brilliant Christmas gift" Chris Moyles "Like sitting down by the fire with [Sir David] and hearing your stories ... Full of surprises" Lorraine KellyThink of this memoir as a Christmas special in book form, from someone who has been involved in a few of those and understands a bit about the concept. But a Christmas special very much like Only Fools and Horses, in the sense that the stories will be always heading outwards, ranging far and wide and well beyond the traditional festive gags involving giblets left in turkeys.As I sift through various festive-related episodes in my career, loosening the ribbons, parting the wrapping paper, I''ll be doing my best to reach any relevant conclusions about life, work and the meaning of it all that I can usefully pass on to you - baubles of wisdom if you like. Or certainly baubles. You''ll learn why I have the perfect face to play Scrooge. And if you''re lucky I''ll also share what it''s like to fly in a helicopter with my old mucker Tom Cruise. Merry Christmas, you plonkers.
