By 999Tommo of course. He could have his laptop with him whilst sitting in his 155mph thing, waiting to nab an English visitor who accidently creeps over the limit by half a mile per hour.
Then there's pDennisN who spends more time in Corfu than in the UK, he's always logged on, even when on route via the moon on one of his journeys from SW to N. |

But Tommo hasn't said WHAT he's licenced to do at 155mph
...it could be licenced to lift his kilt at 155mph
licenced to type at 155mph
licenced to knit at 155mph _________________ Andy

Voted yes, but not sure how it can be policed, maybe first there = the one for the week, that could be interesting as everyone is typing together at a set hour, fastest typist wins.
Lost_Property, where is the option for yes + the beer?
Remember when there used to be more pubs in Chatham than churches in England?
They were the days, i can remember trying to do a pub crawl at the bottom of Chatham Hill and not making it to the top! _________________ TomTom Go 60

Things will calm down after a little while when the novelty has worn off and every one has done a couple (polls that is) with maybe 1 exception-guess who

Probably forgot because I'm teetotal. (Don't like the taste).

Most Fare Stages were pubs when I was 'On the Buses'. with 'Mud & Dust'. People must have thought I was a real 'boozer' because I knew every pub in Medway and surrounding area.

I remember once when a number of bus drivers did a pint at every pub down the Lower Rainham Road and there was a shortage of buses the next day. Couldn't do it now as several have closed. |

I think we should try some self policing, and put Tommo out of the job altogether. A bit of vigilantyism never did anyone any harm.
I also take it that some are still waiting for my super poll.
Wait longer. _________________ Dom

Not if it includes DennisN or Audi's or road kill, or Dennis's teeth. _________________ TomTom Go 60

Too right, and if you take too much longer some of us older members could have expired. |

I was going to do a poll (except I don't know how) for simply
Optimism or
Pessimism.
Namely ... I have booked my Corfu holidays for both June and September next year. Is that Optimism or Pessimism?
But Vera said NO - she didn't mind the Pessimism one (not going to win the Lottery), but the Optimism was sick!! - expecting to last that long. Sick, because at our age, we've stopped being invited to weddings in favour of the other reason for a suit. So if anybody chooses to start it themselves, I'll have to lock (or delete) it!!
Now I'll just have to let mostdom beat me to it. Don't care - Tommo beat him and if you get beaten by a Scottish Police Hofficer, you know about it! _________________ Dennis

DennisN sounds a bit tired

takes it out of you reseting for days then just as you get comfortable doing nowt, along comes a nasty job.
hope next week sees you with more than enough work to keep you going
perhaps the manual will help you sleep _________________ Alan --- aka Wiz.

And I've got another job tomorrow - Bristol to Welwyn Garden City. _________________ Dennis
