Thank you Steve, that's reassuring. But apparently one has to leap aboard while it's moving, as it never stops. My husband says he'll throw me over his shoulder fireman-style and jump on to the thing no problem at all. He's so resourceful :)

What are you hesitating for regarding the Guinness? Get two packs, chuck them in the back of the Aston Martin and zoom off around Bude impressing the locals.
