    Try Wrynose Pass. I bet you can't drive that unrestricted road at even
    30mph.

    Well, yes. Between 20 and 30 years ago; although the overheating
    incident was 15 years ago.

    Does this make any substantial difference? Have people towing caravans
    suddenly become more responsible/mechanically sympathetic over the last
    20 or os years?

  6. Heh. I'm over me half century. Doesn't stop me abhorring the Raven
    attitude.

  7. God preserve us from drivers with "rights". It's about road conditions, the
    other fuckwits, your own ability and reactions, not some spurious and inane
    set of rights, for God's sake.

    Same with my mother. Hey, maybe it's *her* fault that I'm a [1] dangerous
    road user :)

    [1] more trained than the average

  14. As opposed to a caravanner without a brain?

  15. It's quite fun on a dull TV evening, though.

    That's a poor bit of pedantry from you Brimstone.

    'part of' anyones thinking.

    i.e. it influences, doesn't control.
