So who is writing all this nonsense?

Hello. My name is Sam Burnett, I am a writer and I live somewhere in Oxfordshire (no idea where, all these trees look the same) with a cat and a wife.

I went to university in North Wales an increasingly long time ago, where I studied German. I even lived in Germany for a bit, and mostly learned only to cross the road when the green man was showing.

Then I worked in politics, did a masters and became a car journalist. I’ve edited some things (mostly boring things about engines or driving instructors) and I checked the spelling on Top Gear magazine for a little while there. These days I write mostly about electric cars. I like chips (all potatoes really – see below).

I also tell jokes sometimes, perhaps you have seen me doing that and have ended up here. Sorry about that.

You can follow me over on instagram.com/fakesamburnett if you like. I cannot guarantee I will do anything interesting. Sorry about that.

I’ve also just said sorry about that twice. Sorry about that.
