NAP 01
Do you think a fan of The Emperor owns this Brisbane Benz I spotted yesterday?
As Nicholas Stark pointed out in the comments to the last show, December 2 was the 204th anniversary of Napoleon and Josephine’s coronation. I hope you all raised a glass of your finest medication in his honour. I did!

I hope the link works!
Cheers.
