Arrrggghhh......busted
« on: 22 January 2016, 12:39:16 »
We picked up the new car at 9:30 on Saturday 16th. Wifey has just received a NIP for speeding at 10:47 on Halifax road in Sheffield.  Fickin 17 minutes we'd had it!

Now the bit you'll like....I was driving  ;D

36 in a 30......hardly Lewis Hamilton. I could do a DBG type rant, but it was my fault (for not seeing the camera) and a day out on a course will be quite restful and, of course, educational.  :)
