    As I was there when this was filmed I know the real storey. The lateral view was done at slow speed because the camera car was a people carrier and obviously would not have kept up with either the scooter or the ferrari. the views that tell the real story are the ones from behind, you will see that the scooter leaves the car well behind over the first 1/8 but although the cars top speed is higher than the scooter it could not catch and over take the scooter before the 1/4 miles finish line.

    Well, we had a lovely walk out by the river this morning. Saw something rather surprising, a rather large family of geese, from what we could see there was 20 goslings with a goose and a gander. Have no idea how they managed to raise that many and they are not far off fledging :eek:

    *** off T&M - when their stuff is OK its great but they are a right pain in the arris when plants are delivered dead/dying/squashed etc ! They don't answer email or letters and only respond grudgingly on face book. They owe me refunds and don't want to cough up - a bit late asking me for photos of dead plants now that I first complained about in early May ! Even my postlady was complaining that she had several more wet and squashed, very flimsy packs to deliver after she dropped mine off. Looking at their BB page its clear that they have upset quite a few people. Personally, they can shove their free postage and £5 vouchers up their arris !

    Can you tell they have upset me ?

    I moaned at them on Facebook about some plants I'd ordered and the date getting pushed back more and more. Lo and behold, a few days later they arrived. In a very poorly state :mad::(

    I've managed to rescue all bar about ten.

    I tried this morning to use my £5 voucher with free p&p and it wouldn't work. So that's more money left in my pocket :D

    I'm rapidly disliking them more and more each day. I'd rather buy plug plants from b&q

    My first car was an Opel Kadett:rotfl:

    Can't possibly post a picture. It's too embarrassing.

    What was your first car?

    Edit....I think it was hand painted!
