  1. I hope you don't mind me digressing a little, but many years ago I was travelling back from Calais to Dover on the SRN4 and when I pulled into the car park, the hover had just left. A few minutes later, another one turned up (he was testing after a deep service), and they let the 4 cars that were waiting go on board and depart. Anyway, the crossing seemed to be going very fast and we actually overtook the other SRN4 and landed first. Just before leaving, the Captain said that he hoped we had enjoyed our flight and "please don't tell anyone how fast we crossed". TWENTY FOUR MINUTES FROM RAMP TO RAMP.

  2. Seeing people driving and talking on the phone is common place here in Riyadh. I'd go as far as to say 30 - 40% of cars. The other day I was driving home and the pick-up in front of me was wandering between lanes. When I eventually pulled along side him, he was on the phone with one hand and trying to light a cigarette with the other hand. He must have been steering with his leg. SCARRRRYYYY!!

  3. MM,

     

    Would I do a thing like that. :naughty:  :taunt:   Well, in comparison, it was very cool here over the week and the early morning temp actually got down to 2 degC on Wednesday, with high teens during the day. However, looks like it may be warming up again, as next week, we'll be in the mid to high twenties again. Still, I'd rather be wearing a big coat and scarf on the broads and Richos took my balance payment this morning, SO NOT LONG TO GO NOW !!!
