Merry Christmas to all (it's barely half an hour away!) I'm 18 and I'm nearly bouncing off the walls... It seems to get more exciting as you get older

All the best to everyone on the forums! Safe driving, hope to see you all on the other side...

Merry Christmas to the life saving safety cameras.

Not many of those around

A bit late, that. Is this a "regression to the mean" of Christmas greetings?

And I wish them a not very prosperous 2007. May their business plans founder.. May common sense prevail and please can we have our policemen back?

A toast to COAST!


Perhaps more emphasis on reducing error, promoting manners and as one reader writes to my sister's local paper ..the Bolton News... a bit more of the "Please" and "Thank You" words in our everyday lives and just maybe we will be that much safer, calmer and cultured.

I wish all on here - whether they chat with us, lurk on us, browse occasionally a belated personal Happy Christmas and a Highly Successful New Year.

Wildy cooked several fine meals and is at least original with the leftovers.. so far have had curried goose on noodles, followed by turkey curry on wild rice .. followed by poultry leftovers encased in creamy leek and ham sauce.. laced with apple wine) and topped with a light puff pastry which literally floated..

Her mince pies are always a little easy on the brandy ... but still very tasty.

By the way .. should put this in "Cycling" but turkey is their Wonder Food this week. I leave it to IG to post as he really loves that mag. I get it every three weeks as Wildy naturally prefers a Swiss publication and I find it gives my hard acquired language skills at least a tune up

Like the any skill - including driving/biking/cycling/horse-riding - computer skills, winter sport skills - whatever .. - you have to use or lose 'em .

Back to turkey...

Rich in protein and zinc. We do use the carcas to make the broth or stock to base soups on.

But I will take this opportunity to point out that traditional Christmas Fayre is actually very nutritional and good for you! Lean Roast Turkey or Pork or Goose or Chicken or Beef with seasonal vegetables and gravy.. and let's not forget the benefits of a decent claret.. and a plum pudding or rich dried fruit pudding in a white sauce laced with either rum or brandy dependent on taste... might be rich .. but once the body has absorbed the nutritional values - this same pud "detoxes" the natural way.


But all the best for rest of Festive Season and as the late and very great Dave Allen used to say

May Your God Go With You

No - not a problem. I love Christmas .. I love seeing the wonder on my younger children's faces when they return for Midnight Mass and find "Santa" has been and gone. They have not sussed yet why Papa or Uncle (whichever is staying with us) is always a few minutes later than rest to Church. It's team work .. Wildy makes them dawdle at the local decorations and it's a bit like being a "magician" and sowing seed of suggestion. to create the illusion of mystique.

I love playing with them and with their toys.. and me and Wildy buy something for our home and make a donation in each other's name to a favourite charity. I do buy her some desired female keepsake on our wedding anniversary.


I hope you and everyone else had a lovely time and no one is ever too "old" to enjoy anything. I hope I am still driving my car and riding my bike long into retirement and still looking forward to birthdays and Christmas.

safety cameras? Wash your mouth out!



Indeed. Even with the DfT's wildly optimistic estimate of 100 lives saved per year (without allowing for RTTM, wider side effects, the effects of other engineering treatments at speed camera sites or crash displacement), when we spread 100 lives a year between at least 5,000 cameras, we find that the absolute maximum proportion of cameras that may be expected to have saved a single life in a year is 2%.

But of course when you factor in everything else, it's blindingly obvious that speed cameras are killing us in large numbers.
