    Heh. There's a *world* of difference between my hacking and real,
    proper, grown-up engineering. (There's a very good reason I won't work
    to deadlines...).

    But thanks for the thought! :^)

    minutes North of Laguna Seca Raceway and the Monterey Peninsula."

    Would be reason enough for me. Now where do I learn CNC'ing.

  4. In uk.rec.motorcycles, Martin amazed us all with this pearl of wisdom:
    I got an "offer" to do lorry driving in Canada for a racing team going
    all over the American continent - paid work, paid accommodation etc etc
    but they wanted Class 1 drivers.

    Arse.

    I *could* go to San Diego if the mood were upon me. Logistically it
    would be a nightmare. And Mrs WUN would not be impressed. And I don't
    think I could live under their political system and not go postal.
    If you find out, be sure and let me know, eh?

    But you passed your HGV (articulated?) licence recently didn't you?
    What's the difference to Class 1 then?

    And why not go for it anyway?

  10. In uk.rec.motorcycles, Martin amazed us all with this pearl of wisdom:
    Nope. The rules have changed. You have to do your class 2 first (rigid
    up to 30 tonnes) which is the one I did and passed. Class 1 is the
    artic.
    'Cos I can only drive 30 tonners and with the licence I have atm, any
    trailer cannot weigh more than 750kg.

    I'd have thought you were full of class 1.

    Oh no, wait, that's class A isn't it?
