I have a 3km drive through a Padi Field to get to my home :

I thought the only people who lived in Padi Fields were Irish "Travellers"

is that supposed to be humour?

if you went to geography class you might have known that NORTHERN IRELAND is part of the United Kingdom.

just like Scotland and Wales but then again, we dont want to Generalise?

I never did geography. NORTHERN Ireland, you say? Isn't that up near Birmingham somewhere, just by East Angular? Sounds inaccessible. I will take my huge 4x4 and use low range all the way just in case. I'm gonna drive solo up there too.

I can't remember if they had a bail out. If so, then these had better sell because I don't see why the government should prop up a company that produces products that are not selling given the economic downturn. If not, then ignore what I just said.

ETA: looks like it was a loan. Not sure about this government funding for a "green" Land Rover. That's just idiotic.

1. LR have not had a bail out from the government.

2. £27Mil from the government for LRX green technology is not idiotic, it is helping LR to create a more efficient and therefore more attractive vehicle to keep LR afloat and therefore keep 15,000 people in jobs. Not to mention keep all LR suppliers in business too. Fact is JLR is at the forefront of British auto technology and the government recognise this.

TRUFAX; It's illegal to reverse park in most of the US for just this reason.

Eh?!!!

Delayed response...

If you reverse park (into a space, I mean, not parallel) then a passing cop can't see your number plate (which also contains your tax disc equivalent).
