Is annoyed there is yet another postal strike. One today and next Monday. I appreciate what they're trying to succeed but what about us lot, who pay for deliverys etc and don't get it. Why London? Pick somewhere like Swindon.
There's two men talking in the office like Chipolata doesn't exist!

Oi JP! Less of that cheek!

just checked the map. Today's drive is 500miles, not 400. But what's a hundred extra miles on I-10?
Are there long very straight stetches?
In the UK road designers are not allowed to do long straight stretches because the high level planners fear that it hypnotises drivers & they fall asleep at the wheel.

It's essentially straight and due west for 500 miles, at least. Straight roads are safer.
Just passed a car with the tag SKYNRD1.

How are you posting on the move?
Quote: Gavin @ August 12 2009, 3:50 PM BSTDid you have to pay for that?
No.

And what a sad world that would be. 
(Although they've pissed off now so I'm all alone for the last fifteen minutes)
