You drive loads slower when you're high, someone told me once. For wisdom teeth extraction, I was dosed with Valium. Knew what was happening, totally didn't care. But people drive while on it (admittedly lower doses). I’m the same with codeine, never take it now if I’m driving after a reckless over...

New series of Bad Sisters has just started on Appletv

The outright lap record at Cadwell was held by a 250 Superkart for many years. Dunno what the lap records are like for Legends cars but having watched them race at Brands Hatch they're not too shabby either. They look like Elliot Ness cars until you get up close and realise they're 5/8 scale. Bike ...

The personal touch goes far. I miss the days of having a watchful security guard, especially since my Capo has been nicked again. :( Again! :crazy: :x Yup, last Thursday from the West End. Had an Abus U lock through the front wheel which they threw in the skip - homeless person raiding the skip fou...

Don't let HR hear you say that.

He loves me too,

I can’t wait to get the transcript, it was comedy gold apart from one serious allegation dark, that prim HR bod is going to have to say cunt in front of about a dozen of us.

The old battery negative cable to ground on the engine did not look very healthy.

I hope they’ve sorted that godawful seat out and a bigger tank would have been nice.
