As the almost equally determined Wayne Johnson’s documentary details (surely his own labour of love), Hart dedicated any spare moment he had to creating something John Britten or Burt Munro would be proud of. Taking an engineers eye to his monumental task of building a dragster jet car, the self-styled, would-be “world’s fastest ginger” initially threw himself into 18 months of intense study/Google research, before scouring the world for ways to be able to make his fantasy vehicle on a budget. Thanks to Kiwi ingenuity (which included a soda stream bottle as a shut off, Holden Kingswood wheel hubs and a Warehouse Dora the Explorer ball as a mould for the bullet nose), this potential $250,000 project was able to be crafted for around ⅕ of the price. Not that he skimped on safety. “Everything else can be nasty arse crap,” he tells Johnson, but the parts that allow him to stop and steer it, “those have to be top-notch”.

The area is currently closed off near the Wockhardt factory. The plant is being used to help produce the Oxford/AstraZeneca vaccine.
It is owned by Indian drug-maker Wockhardt, whose name was chosen to sound like “work hard”.
A spokesman for North Wales Police said: We are currently dealing with an ongoing incident on the Wrexham Industrial Estate.

Live theatre! Reduced audiences, masked, slightly chilly, distanced from neighbours – and yet the natural animal warmth of being in the same space with proper actors performing – acting, revives spirits. What a treat!
Merrily on High is fEAST Theatre’s latest offering, and it has brought good live theatre back to Wells Maltings. Starting on December 18 and concluding on December 19, there were three original acts, two written by Rob John and one by Robin McLoughlin.
