I am quite sure your diagnosis of compulsive behaviour is perfectly
correct. I well remember when it started with me at the age of about
7. Fortunately, it was not confined solely to motorcars, but also
embraced, if that is not too direct a word, girls. I can honestly say
that the compulsion has never left me and what is more, I don't want a
cure for it,thank you.
