As TT's roving reporter I can tell you for certain that it's not all happening in Dumfries.

Have they forgiven Bonnie Prince Charlie for nicking everyone's boots yet?

New job interview/driving assessment done. Job is mine if I want it, just got to see how other interview goes Tuesday now and let them know. Quite a satisfying day.

My Father's car was written off in an accident the third week of October last year. Two days after he'd paid for 12 months of tax to commence on the 1st Nov. He got his private plate documents around Christmas. Last month he was still waiting the the tax rebate...
Same here, I'd forgotten about mine until I read this. Pretty much given up on it now..

Paypal, instant or cash..whatever suits you, boss.
You've decided to simply ignore my text demand for thirty eight million euros. Very wise.

Fret not, you're already on the list between Evo and Fishtigua.

I'll have to find out about the P&P.
Unless I am mistaken and the towers use an alternative alphabet, in what universe does R sit between E and F

Unless it's ERF . Are they now the TT prime mover of choice?
The list is arranged chronologically in order dictated by the first member to enquire has his or her name at the top, the second is second and so on.

The upheaval of arranging the list alphanumerically will come later. And I don't mean later tonight.

I had to survey John Paul Jones' cottage yesterday.

Apparently he was the founder of the US Navy.

I think he might be dead. How should I put that in my report?

Reesh,

Put me down for a big mug please. It'll go beside the Commando one that Ro sent me, and my North Norfolk Digital one.

Ooh, yes perlease Mr C biggrin

Small for me please, payment by personal cheque in the Royal Mail, as per usual? smile My word, as you know, is my bond wink

More than enough to make up the deficit that's appeared from every car suddenly producing lower emissions in the last few years. Just another way to fk the motorist over.

I'd love to send over the money for a large mug when you'd like to receive it!

Yes, because that's the government's motive.

Our parliament has come up with the wheeze of charging every car a parking permit of £50 a year, whether you park in Town or not. Imagine being charged by NCP a £50 quid ticket for not parking in their multi-storys every year.

Yep, that's what I thought too. ranting

You're proposing to use your new TT mug Commando?

There's disrespectful for you.

I'm really going to have to research the P&P and come up with the proper numbers, aren't I?

Hold that thought.
