Ummmmm...wasn't that what I just said? If there is a potential hazard ahead, I am ready.....maybe why in over 35 years of driving and hundreds of thousands of miles , I have never had anything more than a 15 MPH rear end shunt and one very minor spill on my bike on cold tyres..... What if...

Exactly, the roads are choc a bloc with bad and inexperienced drivers

So whats the minimum recommended speed you should be doing to avoid these dangerous sounding tractors? 20? 30? 10? I am curious. Again, you miss the point.....if you were on a road where there was for example, an opening, or a junction or something that indicated a possible hazard, you cover...

I beg your pardon, I meant 2 seconds, not 2 car lengths..... I think if you count the two chevrons it's approximately that.....When I did my advanced driving course with a police instructor, that's what he recommended......it was however over 25 years ago, so recommendations may have changed...

I always keep at least 2 cars distance.....one of my pet hates is being tailgated. But then, I am a "superbrilliant driver" And what about all those Police, Ambulance and Fire service drivers who break speed limits when in the line of their duties? Are they "Unsafe" ? What is your judgement on...

Hi Douglas, I have a similar Norris, but stained beech. They are great planes, mine works beautifully, it feels very nice in the hand and I am sure you will be very pleased with it when its fettled and cleaned. i am very envious of the wood, whatever it is, all the options are better than...

@ John Brown - if you are such a crap driver, get off the road, and make it safer for people who can actually manage to co ordinate brain and body properly and drive a car as its supposed to be driven. That's half the problem with the roads as well, they are full of really crap drivers.....You...

Well, we seem to have touched on several points here, but clearly there are many of you here who feel feel very strongly that its morally wrong to break the law, any law. And there are many who are taking the moral high ground on the safety issue. Your choice, and I don't criticize you for it...

I thought you would like that jacob........... :lol: :lol:

Oh, I was wondering when the first one of these would appear.......you missed the whole point completely...do you think I am that conceited and full of myself that I am incapable of recognizing my own limitations or those of others? I have driven high performance cars and motorbikes to their...

Of course I am not suggesting general anarchy..or disobeyance of the law.....although having been the victim of tool theft, bike theft and car theft at various times, it does not seem to make much difference what I do or think....... Like I said, some people think the law is umuteable - I think...

Some interesting reactions here..........I guess it comes down to what type of person you are - someone who obeys the law, no matter whether its ill thought out, inappropriate, or illogical, or whether, like me, you take a view that you are intelligent and skilled enough ( in this case we are...

Thanks for the advice, very helpful!

I would buy as well, but like the others have said, why don't you use something like LuLu ? You can do amazing things with adobe and some time and their books look really great. I made myself some great manuals for my flight simming, using .pdfs .

Probably about 8 hours in total. It was all pretty simple stuff involved, but a lot of time saved by being able to buy the hardware. Hats off to the guys who make their own wooden screws........

Hi guys, working on my last project highlighted how my bad back and eyesight were making work on my bench quite uncomfortable. despite making my bench higher than usual, and having my glasses, I was still struggling. So I decided to rectify the situation. While perusing the benchcrafted site, I...

Hi, my next project is a media unit, built to a similar style as a sideboard we have. the sideboard is rosewood with 3 doors, that have an unusual veneered pattern of a central small circle ( 50mm) in the middle door, with radiating segments of veneer that get wider the further away from the...

I just got the trial version, wondered if anyone else here uses it ? Going to try and have my first decent go at today....

Bless......... I have a male staffy, aged 7 and he is intact, but I do worry about possible health issues....did you get it done preventatively or as a result of a diagnosis?

Is that for who I think it is?
