How much is it? 

I use the Severn Bridge quite regularly which is a rip off! 

Never understood why they charge to enter Wales... Surely they could ask double to let you leave...

Much prefer being this side thank you

What was the other driver's explanation for hitting the same car twice? This has baffled me

Yeah, saw the Vulcan at Weston on Sunday, it did a good few flypasts, some under full throttle - Oh my God, what an absolutely awesome sound that was

It's red Saharan dust, set to be blown over from North Africa for the next few days. So leave any car-washing for now

Ah, that was the Express though wasn't it? Always make things sound 500 times worse, just to sell a few extra papers. You'd think the readers would have noticed by now

General Discussion Area / Re: One for the Welsh on here

« on: 31 August 2013, 09:21:47 »

I dropped Welsh in school like a hot potato as soon as I could, I'm proud of being Welsh but I feel that it's a dead language that's just being kept alive for the sake of it. I also purposely sent my kids to an English-speaking school as I didn't want them trying to learn everything in Welsh, when I don't have any interest in speaking it myself. A view that's not shared by many of my friends and family, where we've had to agree to disagree

General Discussion Area / Re: Ryanair . . the pitfalls ?

« on: 24 August 2013, 14:01:01 »

Yep, that's the way it usually goes, the flight I nearly missed had the four of us all seated separately, not ideal when your kids are only 5 and 8 (at the time). We then moved together into some empty seats which they were keeping empty for take-off and landing for weight distribution

Thought FAA regulations state that children of a certain age had to sit next to the parents for emergency evacuation reasons?

Wouldn't surprise me, but there was no mention of this in my case
