It's the same as whoever is supposed to deal with the Digital Edition just lately, is it that difficult to press a button !!

The AA site is usually very good.

''This will mean that in some areas and at certain times we will have more or
less police officers available"

There always seem to be plenty hanging around the Market Place on Friday nights !

No, I don't even take the wife on the back, total peace !

That's one of the best things I enjoy when on my Motorbike, no distractions therefor total concentration on what I'm doing.

I think keeping to the speed limit is mainly ignored by most drivers on most roads these days. A lot drive up & down the Link more near 70 than 50, the manic idiot that continues to hurtle round the Ecchinswell lanes etc. Where there are no ASCs the chances of getting caught with the lack of Patrol Police is minimal whatever road you are on I'm afraid.

It's really about time there was a complete overhaul of the Car Driving Test. Look at the stages one has to go through to ride a Motorcycle nowadays for instance. Apart from the introduction of the Theory Exam the Car Test has remained basically the same for years. How about having a period of time in a limited power vehicle for example. Also at the moment you can pass the test driving round Newbury for an hour or so then you can go straight out onto the Motorway with no further instruction !! I personally think it's about time it was incorporated into the test.

Ah well it seems those over the border in Hampshire are going to get permits after all, although they have got to wait till Christmas though .

Look no further than Cal Crutchlow then .

Before long those that live just the other side of the Swan roundabout will have to burn a darn site more fuel by having to travel to Basingstoke or Andover !!

No, don't give up for goodness sake, do we have to take notice of all these so called experts. Would you really expect to be waiting to see a doctor or on the waiting list for an opp. etc. alongside any of them, when was the last time Richard Branson lived in this country for instance. And as for the so called celeb's, Izzard, 'give us your effin money' Geldolf, & now I see an ex footballer who lives in a £32 million pad !!!!!!! Get real, none of them live in the real world anymore, every time I see names like these telling me what to do it makes me dig my heels in even more.

I don't think Eddie Izzard's behaviour on Question Time last night did much good for the remain camp .

I don't know about Parking like a tw*t, but the Bronze ! VW that came past me down the link at about 8.50am this morning was certainly Driving like a REAL TW*T he must have been doing close to 100mph if not over. I know at lot certainly go over the 50 limit but that was ridiculous !!

Pardon .

'Lycra clad idiots', .

As one who also enjoys growing their own veg, there surely must be someone in the area who has a patch of garden you could use in exchange for a bit of the produce Simon, an elderly person for instance who now finds it difficult to manage would be grateful for someone as keen as you !

So, which forum members are going to attend the Budget Meeting tomorrow night !

Out.

Talking of Gravy Train, what about this smug looking idiot !

Wot, at Aldi or Lidl for instance !

Of course, every man should have a hobby. It also keeps one from under the little ladies feet .

A decent Model Shop would be handy, something like this one. http://www.swindonmodelcentre.co.uk/

Well it looks like Basingstoke has the right idea. I quote from the 'Basingstoke & Deane Today Paper'
:- 'To help support a thriving town centre, the half hour free parking in short stay council run car parks in Basingstoke is planned to increase to an hour. The move follows feedback that the half hour parking the council introduced was to much of a rush for people wanting to just nip into town to sort something out or make a quick purchase'.
Now, doesn't that make sense !!
