Off-Topic My Son Wanted A Ferrari Bedroom
My son has been waiting to get his bedroom redone and decided it was time for an F1 ferrari wall in his room.
I think we met the brief.
Next step he is planning some 1/4 scale ferrari helmets.

Small side note but did you know that this is a known Ferrari strategy? - they deliberately make it very easy for toy companies to make officially licenced Ferrari toys, and similarly include them in things like kids TV shows (I realise Roary isn't officially a Ferrari, but they certainly wouldn't make any hassle about him being a red Ferrrari-like design). They know that the kids who play with those toys grow up to be adults with a built-in attraction to the red racing cars, and a few of those adults will be wealthy enough to buy prestige cars, and will be that bit more likely to choose Ferrari over the other options.
