[QUOTE] Blimey, I was 21 and had just passed for (train) driving.[/QUOTE] 25, I think..
I was 14 in the September of that year. What I'd give to go back to those days, or even earlier. One thing's the same, though: I didn't have a driving licence then, and I don't have one now (for long).

In uk.rec.motorcycles, Lozzo said: ****, yes! Those bastards used to give me a heart attack, even if they were on the other side of the road and in front of me.
I was 25 and my daughter was born that year. I earned, IIRC 9,625 a year. During 89 my mortgage went up from a tad under 200- a month to a tad under 400- oh, and we went from being a 2-earner household to a single earer household. Not my favourite year in terms of stress levels. On the bright side, I started a part time degree in '89.
When I went over the lines in the road I jabbed the brakes on so hard the ABS kicked in. Then I let off the brakes. Then the camera flashed.
You remember correctly. If they have stopped you, they take your driving license away *on the spot*. You can make your way home by public transport from the police compound where they put your bike/car...

Using the patented Mavis Beacon "Hunt&Peck" Technique, Ben Blaney Oh arse. How silly of you to lend your car on the day in question to your Uncle Bertram from Matabeleland. I bet you won't do that again. I'd try to contact him care of the UN workers in the area to have a jolly strong word with him.
