I hate it when neighbours shuffle their cars around at stupid o'clock, especially when they have been there all day and must have known who was leaving first.

Hi MarcoHi Martin,
Did you miss post #4203?
Marco.
No I was just thinking about putting details on here. I live in the best part of Cheshirewhere the Manchester footballers and ex Joy Division members live.
I saw Stephen Morris shopping the other day.
All the other areas of Cheshire are wannabe pretenders....... Playing at it

I've seen those "Real housewives of Cheshire" on the telly - nothing about them looks real to me. And no doubt they contribute greatly to the traffic problems, taking little Fabian and Cressida to school in their giant SUV's.

Oh my god! There's nothing wrong with the bidet is there?
“Nothing discloses real character like the use of power. It is easy for the weak to be gentle. Most people can bear adversity. But if you wish to know what a man really is, give him power. This is the supreme test. It is the glory of Lincoln that, having almost absolute power, he never abused it, except on the side of mercy".
“You see these dictators on their pedestals, surrounded by the bayonets of their soldiers and the truncheons of their police ... yet in their hearts there is unspoken fear. They are afraid of words and thoughts: words spoken abroad, thoughts stirring at home -- all the more powerful because forbidden -- terrify them. A little mouse of thought appears in the room, and even the mightiest potentates are thrown into panic.”
"You don't have free will. You have the appearance of free will.”
“There's a war out there, old friend. A world war. And it's not about who's got the most bullets. It's about who controls the information. What we see and hear, how we work, what we think... it's all about the information!”

No, up until the sixties, women drivers were something of a rarity. I remember my mum getting to drive us all to Blackpool Illuminations in about 1966 when she was learning to drive, and it was my first memory of actual fear. And I did some mental stuff as a kid.

Yes, that area of Cheshire is rather more built up, particularly because it's not far from Manchester. It's rather different here, in the likes of Pulford, or my favourite Cheshire village, just outside of Chester, Eccleston:

Love some of the houses there! Or the rural areas around Nantwich, all of which is where I love driving the Brabster, and where I get the road quite often to myself! No traffic jams or congestion in sight...
