  1. New people = new opinions = new styles = fresh
  2. Do I get an invitation now?
  3. Tbh, I'd be happy if it did. Half the reason motorways are so dangerous are the massive differences in speeds and people not expecting them. Granted, that's down to observation rather than the actual speeds themselves, but even so it honestly wouldn't bother me if they did do that. Managed motorways flow better than non-managed ones, albeit slower for those that are happy putting their foot down, so ultimately it could actually benefit the movement of people. It's a short-sighted view I know, as it's not a huge leap from there to doing the same thing on the fun roads too, but I suspect that's a whole new level of cost. Haydn's right though, the tech cannot support that right now, although it won't be that long before it can.
  4. Donation link isn't working for me fella.
  5. Good, the more the merrier if it gets untaxed, un-MOT'd and uninsured cars off the roads. Well, as well as actually catching proper criminals too!
  6. One EU-related article from her in the last week is rubbish. Both her and Corbyn should be standing shoulder-to-shoulder with Cameron over this issue, but they won't because they're terrified for their political careers. Cowards. I think the negativity has been just as bad on both sides, tbh. It's terrible politics either way, as both camps have far more positive things to promote instead. Doesn't make the headlines though.
  7. In case people aren't aware, the French are currently striking and blocking oil refineries which is having a knock on effect of fuel shortages as mongs panic buy. The two next strike days are May 26th and June 14th, the latter being the week of LM... https://penurie.mon-essence.fr/w/ There's a handy link showing which stations are closed, and which ones have run out of fuel. Anyone travelling down in a DE Zed should take octane booster with them as a precaution, and if you want to take extra fuel across with you then there's a limit of 1x 20L metal can OR 3x 10L plastic cans on the Eurotunnel, and stricter limits on the ferries but that varies based on company.
  8. Again though, where is Corbyn? Where is Sturgeon? Their silence is pitiful.
  9. Depends if you get searched or fail the attitude test. But strictly it's £390. https://www.gov.uk/duty-free-goods/arrivals-from-outside-the-eu
  10. Didn't say they were young But yes, pretty much anything Evans does or tries to do is at least different. In fairness to the old TG, the production company only produced what sold well. Clearly I was in the minority in finding it dull and repetitive, but millions enjoyed it so why would they change anything? They will have to now due to various legalese reasons, which can only be a good thing for me. Whilst I expect a fair amount of new TG to be in the same format (Stig, the Star etc) I'm really hoping for a new take on the rest of the show. Certainly new opinions will make a huge difference, as we all knew what JC/RH/JM were going to say before they said it. I've no idea what LeBlanc looks for in a car, or Evans, or anyone other than Harris really. They could both be rubbish, but for the first time in many a year I'm actually looking forward to watching a car show again.
  11. Fair enough, but how is that different from 99% of other meetings? Rhetorical question, sorry.
  12. Our law is fine, it's based on reasonable force. If you have cause to suspect the other guy is armed with a knife, then you can grab one. If he's bigger than you, you can still grab one. If it's dark and you don't know, go ahead and grab one. If you stab him once to disable him, then proceed to pin him down and carve your name into his back then that's not reasonable. Tony Martin was only done because he shot them in the back as they were running away: He'd have been fine if he'd shot them once in the chest. Victims don't go to jail ever for defending themselves with reasonable force, they go because they went miles over the top.
  13. So it's not secret at all, then. Again, it's just tinfoil hat nonsense.
  14. Might as well chuck a splash page up too then whilst we're at it!
  15. Well, that's tomorrow sorted. Great find dude!
  16. It's like MySpace all over again.
  17. ARGH MUSIC ON THE HOME PAGE
  18. Tinfoil hat stuff. Absolutely zero basis in fact or common sense. If it's so secret, then how comes they know who attends?!
  19. Flog it on and buy one that fits properly.
  20. It'd be a great idea, LM is mostly guys, fancy dress and beer anyway Plenty of restaurants in the town and Arnage, you'd want to book or avoid peak times though. RV places tend to fill up early so you'd want to look at getting that sorted out in July/August really.
