I like the way that people decide that instead of just sticking to lane two, they can now stick to lane three, so when you have to catch up with them in the wee small hours of the morning you get to change lanes from one to four to overtake them... But the only real issue I have with them is that the motorway matrix sign setters get to lie even more... I remember finishing a night shift in London and coming back down the M3, and once passing the M25 the matrix signs had me driving in lane 3 (of four) and 40mph... with all four lanes empty and clear from the M25 to Junction 4 (where I turned off). Or when you see them slow the traffic down for a "queue", but you can see the next gantry has a speed restiriction, but the one after that is back to national speed limit... and there is no queuing traffic between you and the third gantry...

I'll see you and raise you London Prestwick... thanks to Ryanair... https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/uknews/1510045/Prestwick-Ryanairs-airport-for-London.html

Not to get political, but after 2019, would an EU regulation really matter? Assuming we leave/on time...

Wikipedia lists a handful of 3 car units (such as the 331 or 334), though no two car units...

Surely it's fast and relief lanes...

they have worked out how to open tins of cat food... they get their well trained slaves to do it for them...

A prime example that a conspiracy of only 13 people was large enough that the news of the plot got out early enough that it was stopped before it happened... or at least, that's what you would like them to make of it...

Actually you can't see the tracks or the descent stage from Earth, no matter how good your optics are. The photos we do have of the landing sites, showing tracks are from the Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter which is orbiting above the moon at about the height of 50km Though they are very cool images... https://www.nasa.gov/mission_pages/LRO/news/apollo-sites.html

If the range is enough they could be under the sleepers, out of sight.

I see thirteen drivers collected 6 points and a £200 fine for using their phone to take pictures of a crashed lorry in Norfolk... what a shame... https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-norfolk-46301319 apparently, most of the fools were HGV drivers... you'd have thought as a professional they'd have known better...

probably with the increase of cars that are unable to drive in slushy/snowy weather without them.... thinking back to an amusing trip home from Grayshott behind a Mercedes that could barely keep from spinning out on a straight, flat road because it was dumping too much power into the rear wheels... or overtaking a porsche that wasn't able to climb the hill at Churt... none of which were as funny as the Subaru Impreza wrx (in rally paint job) that had binned it in the ditch halfway along the 3/4 mile straight by Frensham Pond!

Because they are a BIG market and we are a small one... I'll leave any possible political ramifications of that statement at the door as I grab my coat... ;-)

I once got a lift out of Milan with an Italian friend in some small Fiat... that was an... interesting... journey!

Who said Lane 1 was empty...?? Polybear could be overtaking a line of HGVs...

Round and round and round and round the M25...

which, if the nose-to-tail traffic is travelling at speed, must be travelling at well under the ~2 second gap, which would leave enough room for cars that have matched the speed of the main flow* to merge... * - driving slowly down slip roads and then joining at speeds 15-20mph lower than the flow traffic and only THEN accelerating to speed is another issue entirely

isn't that more or less how Flickr was before they just gave everyone a TB for free?

Or probably more a case of giving a bit more peril... so there's not "infinite" lives. Time Lords can die/be killed. And whilst it's hardly surprising that in the early years some of the basic rules were flexible... I doubt any of them considered that 55 years after the first episode the show would still be going strong, but the 13 regenerations became lore enough that they came up with a method to get around it when they ran out of regenerations.

apart from the fact that we have seen all the incarnations of the Doctor... Time Lords only have 12 reincarnations, and the Matt Smith was supposed to be the last, until he was given more the in Christmas special 'The Time of the Doctor' which introduced us to Peter Capaldi's Doctor...

Well, they get the same length of sunlight (minus a couple of minutes) from the Saturday to the Sunday, and it's basically dark enough to have your headlights on driving home after work on the Friday before so it's not like you suddenly lose evening light...

actually there was... http://www.rmweb.co.uk/community/index.php?/topic/129036-bridge-bashing/?p=2958648

trains of 8 or 12 coaches stopping at Bentley, doors only open on the front 6. Ash Vale only has room for 8, but in the rush 12 coach trains are run.

I do remember Lady Cassandra, from the very second episode of the rebooted series... 5 billion years in the future and very proud at being the last "pure blood" human left...

every time you try to make something idiot proof, they just come along with a better idiot.... people still climb down onto the tracks after all... eventually someone will try climbing them (just because they wanted to), and they'll probably die, and the papers will be full of quotes of "what an angel they were", which raises the sort of question of what sort of angel does something like that... but not publicly, because you mustn't speak ill of the dead (especially if they're a child....)

though in 2015 they did have GWR (or First Great Western) HSTs running into Waterloo from the South West on weekends when Reading was totally closed, so with some preparation it is feasible.
