On-screen text

"Nobody's coming to save you?" I promise you I'm capable of saving myself. I'm driving across Ireland on the other side of the road for the first time, surviving roundabouts, stopping for sheep traffic, and reversing on the edge of cliffs so a farm tractor could pass. Sometimes a challenge is all it takes to remember you've been capable all along.
