Withnail...

Driving down to the Outer Banks in North Carolina, we stopped at a local fruit stand. While the crew ran in to gaze at the overpriced berries, I sought out the only shade in the parking area. Simba panted underneath the shabby whitewashed table, and the protrusion caught my eye.



Decades ago, my friend Rob introduced me to the British comedy Withnail & I.   And one of that movie's memorable quotes was "We've gone on holiday by mistake."  After six hours in the car with two young adults, this photograph and my recollections of the film made me laugh.
