While at Newark, it might be worth popping over to the giant Currys Distribution complex. In view of what John Orentas has said about forklift truck tyres, they may have some to dispose of. I would expect theres someone there even on a sunday. Its only a few yards from the showground

Have you tried the Go cart track on the A46 half way between Bingham & Leicester or the one at Newark near the entrance to the showground?

Was that as a result of my earlier post Bones, or did you get your bike independently? If it was as a consequence, then I am glad that my post helped and its nice to know that members do read, take on board and act on information posted. Edited for spelling!!

Anyone fancying a Folding Bike should hurry along to Morrisons where they have a Proteam Folding Bike on offer, priced at £80! (While stocks last) Edited to say its an even better price, £60!!!!!

Is this a portent of things to come? In the article about Hybrid power on page 73 Waterways World (July 2008) it explains that twelve systems have been sold to commercial boat operators in Amsterdam so that they can comply with new legislation banning the use of diesel engines in city limits. One wonders how long it will be before the EU bureaucrats think about enforcing it across all of europe. And can we expect Gordon Brown to resist? No you can't vote on that one, its not allowed!!!!!

After you checked the boat length, I don't suppose you even thought about not mentioning it and seeing if they issued documents stating it was 57ft?

I too am having trouble understanding this, however for a totally different reason. You state that you are working at Coventry University but your email address appears to be Loughborough University. Can you explain this please, as I was not aware that the two Universities were in fact one.

Hi Gary, sorry to hear flood waters may cause you a problem. Reports indicate that its the river Calder where the problems are but just wondered if the pub we all met at (for the banter), is experiencing any flooding as a remember it was only a few feet above the canal. any info?
