Just found out that as of midnight, Monday 8th January 2019, all cameras on the M1 and M25 went live, set at 72 miles per hour. Auto ticket generating system with 6 penalty points.
Watch your speed and please tell everyone else. Any speed over 90 MPH is an instant ban and possible custodial sentence.-

Can't comment further Im' afraid...I was just a kid and picked up bits of info from my Mothers chatter.I remember seeing him though and visiting his farm that he bought to grow his own spuds.On the left side of the Ollerton Road up to the Burntstump turn off.
Always remember him showing us a grass field of his and clapping his hands...the whole field erupted into hundreds of rabbits.

A braked trailer has to have the safety chain connected at all times...the penalties can be huge if the trailer breaks free and the brakes are not automatically operated.

A large percentage of the population would like rid of them if only the alternatives were not even worse. Look at the Yanks and their choice of presidents since Kennedy. We're stuck with what we've got.
