  1. And how many pieces would be have been if he had been hit. If this was a police publicity video, I think it is disgusting advocating driving at that speed in urban areas.
  2. SPEED KILLS,this is why 20mph speed limits are beginning to gradually be introduced in urban areas. A person hit by a vehicle at 30mph is 7 times more likely to be killed than at 20mph. At 20mph there is a 99 percent chance you won't kill them. The stopping distance at 20mph is twice that of 20mph. SPEED KILLS.
  3. Apologies Charlie, I misread your post.
  4. There is no such sign in this country that means NO SPEED LIMIT.
  5. So you agree with speeding in the right place? Where pray is the right place? Speed limits aren't there for the hell of it. Speed does kill FACT, in any accident, the higher the speed the more likelihood of a fatality, FACT.
  6. I don't know when you last went into Roy's out of season Liz, Eastern European seems to be predominant nowadays.
  7. Going back to Windboats from the Dusseldorf boat show via Grimsby.
  8. Interesting article on Look East just now on the dredging on Hickling Broad
  9. Although my location has Wroxham, where I seem to spend most of my waking hours, I actually live in Rackheath. So my view will be very much blighted, country views will be a thing of the past before too long. The actual impact on Woxham/Hoveton for the future will depend on how many more developments they keep tagging on
  10. I certainly agree with most of what you say, especially the part about political ambition, the same ambition that has pushed the NDR through irrespective of cost or impact.
  11. Hi Liz, I find all this reminiscence all a bit bizarre at times, I see people like you as the same age we last met and keep thinking, how can you possibly remember back that far? Then I get up and realise it's the body that's going downhill, the minds still younger, thank god.
  12. Ahhh. Makes sense now, in the first picture it looked like a tall wooden mill like building. What looked a bit like windows are in fact slots in the walls for roof beams or suchlike. Or am I just senile?
  13. Where was this taken, that large building in the left background looks interesting.
  14. Missed two more Strowager, a set on the corner of Station Road Salhouse and another set half way between Station Road and the Salhouse roundabout. Must be all this mild weather, they are breeding early!
  15. How true Howard. If this thread was posted forty odd years hence I doubt you would get the same nostalgia, affection for the present landlords. Ahh the Green Man, Aubrey Hudson, wonderful landlord, miserable hugger, but knew his trade.
  16. Getting a bit devious on some of those Vaughan. What about Gerry (Jerry?) Rubin's (Ruebins?)
  17. Blast, got Vaughan's finger trouble, should be LA LACONDA
  18. Right, the last three of my original list. Tony Masala, Kings Head Wroxham. Went on to open Last Laconda in Blofield. Peter Turner, Ferry Horning, before Ted and Sarah Shadbolt. Big chap 6' 8". Harry Dace, Bell Salhouse.
  19. The Germans who went up to Winkles at lunch time. "Ve could like to have a meal tonight, do 've need to book?" No, replies Winkle, just leave your towels on the chairs. They found this highly amusing.
  20. I forgot Bill. Is it the Two Friends or Terresa is now an Indian?
  21. Something at the back of my mind about the names, but can't for the life of me put my finger on it. Think your starboard fingers playing up again, last time I saw Barry he wasn't exactly springing.
