    Speed limits: yes motorway speed limits should be increased, but with the proviso that drivers have 6inch spikes fitted to the centre of the streering wheel and are forbidden to wear seat belts.

    Alcohol: age limit should be raised to 75. That way I wouldn’t spend all my money on it. hic.

    can I have a lemon one?

    2 – while discussing that particular photo, I mentioned that there was a Lightning which went in (I think fatally) at a Skegness air display one year. Although on second thoughts it might be Scarborough… Either way, I’m sure it was a Lightning which went into the bay after getting a fast low pass wrong. Can anyone else shed any light on that one? Year, aircraft identity, pilot, etc?

    a quick look through Martin Bowman’s “English Electric Lightning” gives:

    “F3 XP753 Crashed into the sea off Scarborough 26.8.83, during unauthorised aerobatics. Flt Lt Mike Thompson, LTF, killed”
