MY FRIEND THE CAR SMASHER

MY FRIEND THE CAR SMASHER

It took me some time to persuade my friend Andy Smith to visit Kenya with me, as I felt his church needed a third world focus as well as the great work he was already doing in the Rohampton Estate, which is one of the larges council estates in Europe.
