@NowtbutaLad @railnigel Interesting pic - N of Ormskirk Station, showing the curve line incoming from the now dismantled line towards Skem? Multiple lines (sidings?) on the now car park.

An unidentified and scruffy looking British #Railways steam engine at the then 'through' #Ormskirk Station in #Lancashire; no date. The engine has an 8L shed plate on it which relates to nearby Aintree Engine Shed; it closed in June 1967. @railnigel

@bolderston_mark My first car! A Peco big bore exhaust, fat radials to replace the cross ply tyres and a load of climbing/camping gear in the front boot meant it went and handled pretty well on the back roads of N Wales and Cumbria. More refined than Minis of the era.

@metoffice I’m really sorry to say this but I’m only being honest and objective. I love you and have worked with you via my films on TV.
Your new app is rather awful! 💔😢 That’s not based on dogma or habit on my part. It’s HONESTLY NOT INTUITIVE and unnecessarily overly complicated for both casual users as well as those like myself who like to dig a bit more.
Is there any way I can resort to your old version of the app until you get things polished off at all? 🤞🙏

@100Climbs Had the same problem. Covered grass in chicken netting on bricks. Cat still got to its spot and pooped. Only thing that stopped was a Canadian automatic water jetter controlled by a movement sensor. It got the postman too.

@adrianfclarke Once had one with the old Fiesta 1.3 engine, utterly gutless. By way of balance in later years I had a 1.8 petrol that absolutely flew, strangely potent .....

@SaferRoadsYorks @BigMonJohn In my experience many drivers lack either. And the high blunt fronts of these vehicles are as good as battering rams. Worrying combo.

@BigMonJohn Hope so. Big vehicle like this requires some skill and caution. Not sure the driver had either.

@CitizenUddin So familiar. What were the driver's thought processes? If any ......

Southall.
#CyclingWifey asked me to remind drivers, of this important information.
"Under the HC, you must give to cyclists before passing parked vehicles or other obstructions on your side of the road"
And if you don't? You will be reported to the police like this driver has.

@CitizenUddin @al_eye_am That's the new "close pass". Happens all the time. Most overtaking drivers are considerate now but oncoming?? I wonder what they're thinking (they probably aren't). Do oncoming cyclists somehow not count?

@higgledygarden @JohnLewisRetail There's a read across to private health insurance for humans there. And a warning.

Never knowingly undersold? My @JohnLewisRetail dog insurance. Now Flash is 9 they've wacked it up to over £1000 a year despite me only being able to claim £2k back!
I've never claimed on any pet insurance policy. He's not ill.
Do we think pet insurance has got out of hand??!

@SaferRoadsYorks I find that most overtaking drivers give me good clearance. Now. But oncoming drivers on tight lanes, def not. Go figure.

@SaferRoadsYorks Last thing I want is to have a dodgy driver trailing me.

This is a 1973 Ford Mustang SportsRoof that has been given the safari treatment, with a slew of upgrades to the suspension which allowed for the fitment of 31×10.50 Mickey Thompson Baja Legend MTZ tires on the 15″ Magnum 500-style wheels.
