Re: Highways Agency - Good. RAC - FAIL!!
What a night. Just finished a 12 hour shift at Heathrow and on the M25 at 7.15 Friday night (in the fast lane) when the throttle cable snapped! XT660Z slowed down alarmingly and as traffic was so heavy there was no chance to move over to the left so I was stranded up against the armco central reser...

Re: Jupiter's Travels - again
Saw him to a 'live gig' in Stroud a few years back...a humble bloke, but an engaging speaker too. One good thing he said was: people worry about leaving the job etc...but by the time you get back you will be so psychologically self-sufficient that you probably won't need a 'job' in the conventional ...

Re: Norton in administration
I think today was the last day for 'rescuers' to express interest in the wreckage. I'm told it's by no means straightforward....SG has licensed the Norton name to different companies all over the world. And WTF were people doing for putting all that money down for the V4? They could have just ordere...

Re: All electric by Boris the Bogladite
There was something being shared on fb the other day ..... imagine a accident on a motorway or heavy snow. Tailback is adding hours to journey or perhaps the motorway is shut.

Re: Norton in administration
Amazing isn't it...you can rob a pensioner in the street and get taken to court, but you can rob several of their entire pension and turning up to explain yourself is optional!
