Unusually pathetic article even by current media standards.

My sister, from North Finchley if that's a different place, probably thinks support for spurs is a device for hanging horse-riding equipment on... ;-)

Oooh horse riding equipment, lah de dah!

France are threatening to cut up military vehicles in non-military hands, so we don't have it as badly here as we might have, not at the moment anyhow.

It's pretty s**te though that they encourage you to buy new cars, it's almost as if it's not being done for environmental reasons at all, but to save the economy from those evil-doers who refuse, nay refuse! to join in and buy a new car every few years..

New stocks of anti-freeze in then?

Yesterday I amused myself by plotting a route into london on my new satnav system and enabling the traffic warnings, and watching the delays rise to 3 hours and gradually drop back down to just 1 hour.. Then I commuted from the bath to my office in 6 steps.

I got caught in a serious multi car, lorry and bus traffic jam in town yesterday morning. Front Street was entirely gridlocked for at least 5 minutes. All because of the rubbish collection taking place. Shocking, shouldn't be allowed at 0930 on a Tuesday morning, delayed me by at least

Worst I had around here was due to animals on the road, about 50 of them, sheep in fact, being moved from one field to the next around my car. Traffic these days!

N&N members out laning, about 5 years ago - Jim The Quiche is obscuring the view, Dust Mat Dan is driving, Offspring No.2 (Dust Mat Dan) in the middle and MarkyMark "navigating", but it might be Pat The Rat

- we're having a brew just off the old A6 above Buxton.

The vehicle behind is Tidy Bus II The Sequel, which I think we'd just finished and sold to Mrs. Merton's Husband.

It was de-mobbed in 1974! Why it has that plate is a mystery.

""Dear European Court of Human Rights,

I have been forced to give up my 4x4 'Cold Turkey, by the cruel and punitive UK tax regime and the envy of non-prosperous socialists.' Can I claim my compensation please?

"Dear Motorist,

The answer is no.

We note that you educated yourself and have achieved some success, to the point where you are able to buy a nice car.

You are not entitled to any compensation, consideration or democratic representation. Your role is to be taxed to the hilt to pay for everyone else, and treated as the whipping boy for all of society's problems.

Yours,

The European Court of Justice."

Too true.

I think ive walked along that road where your landy is (though a lot of them round that way look very similar!)

I thought they just chose a year at random and gave them that plate? :) I have an 81 plated 101 ambi and it was built in 77..

It's not there anymore!

Fred

I'll put it back.......... done!

Richard

Thanks.

It looks great!

I'd love to paint mine zebra.

Fred

How can anyone be unhappy with so many clowns in government?
