In case you were wondering, all you heathens out there, this isn't a bloke in a frock armed with a feather duster. No, shame on you unbelievers, for 'tis none other than the Ryszard Karpinski, the Bishop of Lublin, blessing nine WV Convoy minibuses before they set out to accompany Pope John Paul ll on his recent pilgrimage to his Polish homeland.
The vehicle loan was organised by LDV's joint-venture partner Daewoo Motor Polska and the Polish Information Agency. Heading the Papal convoy in his famous “Popemobile” His Holiness travelled through 19 Polish towns, covering a distance of 2,000 miles.
A gruelling schedule indeed; no wonder the poor old chap felt a bit knackered after it all. I expect he was glad to get back to the Vatican and put his blessed feet up!
