It shocked me at the time it happened to find out that 8 young people (between 14 - 30) die each week from these problems, so there are a lot of families goi...

Re: huge favour to ask please
I hope all goes well for you with your charity drive, I lost my son at 18 to a previously undiagnosed congenital heart defect in 2005. I support CRY (cardiac risk in the young) as a consequence. I tried voting for your charity but the system asks for postcode and address and then only allows you to ...

Re: Lateral Thinking in action...
Being an old git I remember this story being the central concept of an episode of Porridge (the Ronnie Barker series, not your breakfast!) back in the early eighties I believe.

Re: Help with Google Maps please
What if the method they describe is in being fixed? Would it be ok to paraglide?

Re: Pulled for speeding last night - not quite straightforwa
Ahh the Great British judiciary. Another law unto themselves. Some of the jobs that were either booted or bargained down used to make my hair curl. It all went down the pan when coppers stopped prosecuting their own jobs. CPS walk in with a bundle of papers they see shortly before prosecuting and ha...

Re: Pulled for speeding last night - not quite straightforwa
A lot of the 4x4's on the motorways around here are HATO's. There role has always been a bit of a mystery to me. They seem to be similar to the PCSO's ie a visible deterent without any (or very little) enforcement powers. Anyway with the cuts which are being implemented at the moment across all publ...

Anyway I had already bought a newer car (Corsair 1700 V4) so no real problem. Anyhow insurance company paid me out an...

Re: Pulled for speeding last night - not quite straightforwa
There was always a certain amount of antagonism between street and trafpol to be honest. There are a lot fewer Trafpols now as road policing is handled by Gatso's (whole different issue there). You and I will have to agree to differ on the role of plod, but having worked for the Met for 30 odd years...
