Busy.

 

Specifically, trying to converse with and therefore keep calm a family member who had a blood sugar related incident overnight and I am not good at keeping a conversation going and maybe it's a little more important to do that than to spend 15 minutes trying to find a picture that I can copy/paste using some cheap-ass Android toy instead of a real computer.

 

Vent.

Others have answered the What, I know the where.  That's the start of Prescott hillclimb, Owned an run by the Bugatti owners club since 1937.  I was first there the day after me and mom came home from the hospital after my birth.  I was maybe 3 or 4 days old.  My dad was racing that day, but they arrived late so my dad was walking up the course in the viewing area as he'd missed the course walk.  One of the straps on my new bassinet / carry thing broke and little baby me rolled down the grass bank onto the hot track!!!  Luckily no one was coming up at that time and I was safely recovered.  I've been motorsport obsessed sine that day in April 1969 :)

I've always been jealous of how inviting the grassy venues of British hillclimbing look. I mean, I know you can have a nasty wreck anywhere, it just looks more inviting than the most local hillclimb to me, Larison Rock, which looks to consist mostly of trees and drops. (I've never actually run it).

Not all UK hillclimbs are that tree lined. This is me at Harewood in 1994
