a- Devestation by Flood in Norfolk.- the remains of Coltishall Bridge. Mr. F. S. Bennett, who is touring on an old 9 h.p. Cadillac in Norfolk, sends us the above picture of the havoc made by the recent floods.  Tachtsmen may or may not recognise what is left by the inundation of their old landmark, Coltishall Bridge.  The car is one that was used for the standardisation test of 1908, and is still good enough, after five'years' hard work, to be selected by Mr. Bennett for his tour in East Anglia.
b- On tour in Wales.- A Wolseley 16-20 h.p. torpedo phaton by the shore of Tal-y-llyn lake, showing a lower slope of Cader Idris rising in the distance.
