Middle lanes… ooow what luxury..! I have to drive/ride at least 50 miles to the nearest stretch of 3 lane road 🙂 the downside is that all of our single carriageway A roads are clogged up with lorries restricted to 48 MPH – who’s bright idea was that???!

The max speed limit for Hgv lorries on UK single carriageways is 40mph

Never seen that before, very moving. Thanks

Correct

It always amuses me that proponents of the Eight are often scathing about RAF area bombing, whilst over in the Far East the US, having learned from Bomber Command, did little else in the Japanese homeland.

Your not wrong Moggy, what the Americans seem to so conveniently forget is that they are the only nation on planet earth to use nuclear weapon on another
country not once but twice, they seem to bang on about Dresden and Hamburg but the above seem fair game, is area Bombing only OK if you do it in Daylight?

Yes, I did, but we are celebrating 30 yrs ago, when Richard Noble regained the L.S.R. for G.B.

Sorry Jim but reading your thread it reads like you think that record still stands.

How time flies, today, is the 30th Anniversary, since Richard Noble set the new World Land speed record of 633.468 MPH. 😀
Soon in the near future, the Ausies, with their Aussie Invader will attempt to break our record.:apologetic:

You do know that Andy Green (RAF) broke the sound barrier at 763mph on 15 oct 97 in thrust ssc and still hold that record don’t you?

To be at Scampton a week before the dams raid to try and get Gibson to change the name of his dog, and explain how much bl**dy trouble it’s going to cause in the future if he doesn’t.

Another one is to be at 300ft over the Normandy beaches just to watch it all unfold beneath me

Oh and to tell a girl back in 66 that I dont want to babysit with her:D

You’re are saying that this discovered item may have actually been some sort of hammer?, my toolbox only has hammers in it.
That explains the problems they had when they nailed Jesus to the cross using an abacus, mine fell to bits in the lounge recently whilst banging a nail in the wall to hang a picture…….coloured beads everywhere…..

Are you saying there were precision tools 2000 years ago to make that, realy? it probably fell off a boat a in the 17 century and landed on a 2000 year old sunken ship.
