Re: Confessional

It's great having a good hoon along windy country roads in the sunshine. But we all have off days. I had one today, and I was total shite. I needed to go and collect Mrs T from Didcot Station, a mere 4 miles this evening. A bit of rain and the sort of darkness that sucks the light up, and heavy tra...

They'll be banned apart from events on closed venues and will have to be trailered there.
You know it makes sense, for the good of all.

Re: Who's done their HGV test then?

Just wondered if anyone here has any HGV experience. I'm thinking of doing my HGV test for no other reason than that it sounds fun (yes, we all have different ideas of fun ;) ).

Re: AD Hub logo

I appreciate I'm asking for work from Alisdair but it looks like, at least to me, that this 'site now has momentum. So, how about a proper Homepage, on the header, with links to the AD organisations that we all know about No recommendations, just "Here are the organisations that some here are m...
