Thank you. Men want one like it. Women want to be with it. Zombies fear it. I haven't been bothered by a zombie in ages.

And here, all this time, I thought it was the beard that was the zombie frightener. So I started growing one for no reason?

No, the beard just frightens small dogs and children. And you grew the beard because you're a man. It's what men do.

Apparently, my beard attracts fowl: two owls and a hen, four larks and a wren.

Nuke the site from orbit (it's the only way to be sure); 'Bad Company' by "Bad Company"; my black cowboy hat.

My weapon is the team jersey. The zombies will think I'm one of them and have no brains to eat.
My theme song is the team fight song.
My hat completes the disguise.

Since I'm an "old timer" I would have to go "old school" with something from my youth which I know very well both from the driver's and gunner's perspective.

Is that the 'Saracen Armored Car' that Jack Higgins alludes to in a number of his novels? (mostly the Liam Devlin/Sean Dillon ones)

Yes it is, I commanded a troop of those In NI in the 70s. I'll have too dig around in some old boxes there should be a B&W pic of me as a skinny young Lt sitting on the turret in my dress blues. Strictly speaking the Saracen is an APC. Back in the late 50s and early 60s Alvis made three vehicles all based on the same engine, drive train and torsion bar suspension. The Armoured Car was the SALADIN with a 76mm gun, there was also a 5 ton amphib truck called the Stalwart.
