    dreamcatcher, it might be worth asking them about a speed awareness course. Same fine but no points. Some authorities offer it as a matter of course, but others don't even though they have it available.

    Yeah I did one of those for doing 34 in a 30 zone!! £60 to take it though!! Worth it so you dont have the points though. If i remember rightly they wont let you do it if you were doing excessive speeds though.

    Don't ignore a problem. Unlike a bad smell, it won't eventually go away.
  • Thanks Sieve, have worked out that I have about 8 weeks to pay. Have got 28 to return the form, so shall do that on day 27 and then I expect I will get 28 days to pay..

    Can't believe 2 months after BR I'm in debt again! :rotfl::rotfl:
