[Robert]

In this book, from 1983, Manning repeatedly points out how hard it is to be a Wally; how much effort it takes. Driving badly in a clapped out Capri with fluffy dice hanging from the rear-view mirror is merely a minimal pre-requisite for the pretender-Wally. Despite all the effort and determination apparently required, Britain had a Wally epidemic in the first half of the eighties. They were everywhere and impossible to mistake for anything else.

It was trailed by Steve Wright in the early 80's and we all shrieked with laughter at the people who were upwardly mobile Yuppies, or thought they were. You see the same thing to today with Chelsea Tractors, Bombay Saphire gin, mobile phones, I pads and Kindles - drive safely !!!
