ie.  What desktop background have you got ?

I seem to recall this was done years back on some other forum so though it'd be something to do here . . and now.



Here goes.

HOME (my Caddy when she ran out of petrol on the C.A shoot)



WORK (mainly cos my Caddy picture got lost when my PC had a fit)

Ask anyone in safety ( who's qualified ) will tell you the ratio of near misses to actual accidents is approx 30 to 1.
i.e for every injury accident that occurs 30 people have a near accident ( Near Miss ) therefore focus on near misses and you prevent accidents from happening ( aledgely ).
One of the founding specialist safety professionals called " Heinrich " first devised the ratio in the early 1900's , subsequent studies right up to the nineties have verified it to still be accurate
Just one of many tools ( no not the Managers ) we use to try to stop people killing themself at work.
Incidently did you know that your 12 times more likely to die in an accident at home than at work

At work I have our Stang on the Start line at Santa Pod, and at home I have a picture of the back of a maserati with the boomerang lights

I believe there's a ratio of "unreported" to "minor" to "serious" to "serere" to "death".

We have about 1 minor a week and at least one "major" one a year . . .

Anyway

I think that they were one of the best design features of the Maser, but the stupid Yanks ( Maser buyers ONLY ) didn't like them so they got dumped

Adorning my desktop is the first photo I took when I landed in Barbados in 2003 for our honeymoon.
