    The same side of the road??

    Not the middle? YOU DONT DRIVE ON THE MIDDLE?????

    I mean - there are both sides to a road :confused: I am use to passing places and single tracks - I drive in the middle!!

    There are NO traffic lights here (only for road works) and maybe 4 or 5 roundabouts..........

    Hi all

    Sorry to hear about house problems fay, place you're at looks so good from pics you've shown us. Any chance of buying or are you looking at another rent?

    Sorry HB but all Sunday roast eaten. Feeling stuffed after roast lamb, roast parsnips and pots plus carrots and cabbage. Trying to keep awake! Hope fish pie was good sparkly, you're sounding very assertive today. Go for it!!

    Good luck to Mr BB with the interiew tomorrow. Part-time is a good start and could lead to more or at least updates CV.

    Oh, and for Darwin trip, could I be picked up at Junction 5 M27 or Junction 13 of M3? When exactly is the big turn on (IYSWIM:D)?
