Thames Valley Police Area - Sunday 25th April

[annsxman]

Be warned. TVP are planning a blitz on speeding on this day. It's possible that they may be assisted by Police from Surrey and Sussex. Expect to have them hiding in the hedgerows etc etc.

The source for this post can be taken as extremely reliable.

Any of our friendly BiB's care to confirm/dismiss?

[annsxman]

The BiBs can offer corroboration only. The story is fact.

Thanks for the warning.

Jeremy, I've just acquired a Mitsubishi 3000 GTO twin turbo, do you fancy a run in that if your clutch is a bit iffy? Martin.

Who is Jeremy? The clutch on the Griff is not so bad as to prevent normal usage - I just don't want to wear it away any quicker than necessary. Just 2.5k to the next service so would rather get it done then if I can make it stretch that far.

Of course I will do my best to keep up if you're taking it along

looks like they started early.

there was a burgundy unmarked omega on the A413 (between missenden & amersham) pulled in at the layby pointing a laser gun at traffic on the amersham bound carriageway. i was side by side with a blue TT doing about 90 and the traffic cops just pointed at each of us and waved us to slow down instead of making us pull over.

i use that route quite a lot and I've never ever seen traffic police along that road! i was actually quite suprised.

Its for safety reasons, the driving conditions are terrible today

And on the dual carriageway as well!!!!!

I quite often see that burgendy omega around the aylesbury area.

Why aren't they in Amersham old town where its a 30 and there are plenty of people?
