    Yes, just seen the report on the BBC website.

    Obviously a subject he is passionate about, good luck to you, sir!

    Can’t help you with the film news but I believe the aircraft mentioned is a Swallow, a design for a variable-geometry airliner, years ahead of it’s time.

    You may have been a bit premature there – it’s due to be released on DVD next month…

    http://www.amazon.co.uk/Angels-One-Five-John-Gregson/dp/B000RWDXF0/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=dvd&qid=1202478957&sr=1-1

    Doh!

    Just hope the quality’s up to Robbo’s dvd…..:o

    Just ordered Angels One Five from the above site…..even if it is a bootleg, it’s the only way to get hold of this gem.
    I’ve paid my money so I’ll take my chances!

    We have the same thing here, Andrewman, if you’re convicted you can have a device put in your car that won’t start unless the driver provides a sample.If you elect to have it fitted, it negates the year ban, not a bad idea, methinks.
    I see what Moggy and Ren Frew are driving at (no pun intended) but I guess my opinion is biased quite heavily by the nature of my job.
    Again, a good thread……

    Yes, you can have a zero level of alcohol in your blood, any amount is dangerous as it reduces your reaction time , and a significant amount of the arrests made for drink-driving, are on the morning after.
    Novice drivers over here have to have a zero BAC (blood alcohol count) If they are caught with ANY in their system, even if it is under the ‘legal’ limit they will be prosecuted.
    An interesting stat…..apparently 1 in 15 drivers in the UK on any given day will be driving with alcohol (any amount) in their systems but, 1 in 5 will be driving with an amount of an illegal drug in their system…………:eek:

    I’m a Toronto cop and we activelylook for impaired’s or drunk drivers.
    The first time you have to go to a home at Xmas especially and tell a person they’ve lost a loved one to a drunk driver, you will never forget it and, you will resolve to nail every one you find. I’ve had that onerous duty several times in my career and still remember all of them.
    There is no excuse, and I’ve heard them all….just don’t do it.
