A simple journey down some unknown road was illuminated by the light of some unknown electronic object. There I was minding my own business (and speed) on the outskirts of Stuttgart. Nice road..... Nice dual carraigeway...... Leisurely 100 or so KPH..... So why illuminate the road for me Mr German Transport Engineer?
So now we wait for that wonderful German Xmas stamp on the envelope, or do we get lucky?????

How strange.....
Another round of motorway journey with the last couple actually being in a car. I have decided that if I was ever prime minister the first thing that I would do is abolish them. Why is it that people drive, er sorry queue, on them in cars for hours on end. All these people doing endless journeys for probably no reason.
I am convinced that if you stopped half the people on motorways and asked them what they were doing the answer would be 'Oh just going for a drive'. The car is rapidly becoming an evil of modern day lving. They get in the way of people and why oh why do they allow those idiots who insist that everyone is going way too fast and by going slow in the outside lane then it makes the motorways so much safer.
And that brings me back to my pet subject. On a random survey on my last two days motorway driving the car sitting there in the outside lane at 65 MPH with nobody in front of the...... 48% were Rover drivers, 45% were Honda drivers and 6% had stickers in their back window saying 'If only they still made Rover cars'.
