The news from the Middle East makes grim reading for many. Sharia law; burkas; beheadings; no booze and probably no V8 cars and no fun.
Thus we merry band of brothers and sisters should unite to form a Pistonheads Caliphate! (PistFate?) Hm....

We need ideas, laws, a location, selection criteria and of course dress code and parking policies.
Do we open up our new world to all, or only the chosen few of well built company directors? Should exclusive corners be reserved for the Greens, Scottish Nationalists and refuges from gringworthy threads?

This could be our new world. What are your ideas?

Anyone exhibiting poor handwriting will be taken out at dawn and dealt with in a summary way. No wait, that calligraphy.

Well, er, Not really.
Is there any chance we could move on from summary executions at dawn? Maybe serious offences could be dealt with by condemnation to hybrid cars for a week or two. Capital offences would be life on Mumsnet.

I thought V8s were allowed provided they were in a pick-up with a gun mounted on the flatbed? wink

There's potential for a sub-thread on body hair.
