Hardy Country Exhibition As a huge fan of local author, Thomas Hardy, I am off to Dorchester today to visit Duke's Gallery . It is the last day to view the artist, John Everett's rare collection of local landscapes before they are auctioned. John Everett was close friends with Thomas Hardy and they lived only 3 miles apart. These paintings were found in a trunk in a bathroom when they had been left since 1925 when they were shown at the Camera Club in London. Hardy's birthplace at Higher Brockhampton Charborough Tower Poole Quay Hardy Monument Thomas Hardy Dorchester A picture of Wimborne Bridge is also in the collection with a price guide of £300. Hmmm very tempting.

BMW 507 These beautiful cars were produced by BMW from 1956 to 1959 and were intended for the American market. However, they didn't prove a success and only 252 were built. F1 racing ace, John Surtees, bought one in 1957 for £3,000. This year, it was sold for a staggering £2 million pounds. Elvis Presley also bought one in 1959. John Surtees Elvis Presley
