Big hole in the A40 fence this morning

[pmanson]

Driving to work on the A40 past RAF Northolt (Coming upto the Polish War Memorial) stopped a RAF police landrover parked up behind the fence, when I got alongside him (Was in traffic as per usual) they were obviously guarding the massive hole that was in the fence! Looks like someone got it very wrong and went straight through the fence. Not quite sure how they did though as they only took out one section of fence.

Whoops!

That'll be a terrorist then! Quick, remove some more of our rights!

If there had been a speed camera there then that would have stopped them from getting enough momentum to drive through the fence

I remember a plane doing that not so long ago - speared a white van IIRC.

The funny thing about that plane (a Learjet) was that it had been chartered by John Cleese to fly his girlfriend home from a photoshoot in Spain. And both the pilot and co-pilot were called Manuel.

If only the white van had been a [dr evil inverted comma mode] safety van [/dr evil inverted comma mode]
