Run to the Sun

After a morning run along the canal, I fired up the trusty TT headed West.
And South. And I kept going until I bumped into the sea.
By only LOOKING at the accelerator pedal I managed to eke out the petrol consumption to a level that was merely poor.
Those plants behind the car? They are like Thyme and Parsley. They resemble Mint and Rosemary. They are herby.
