I've gone and done it now

The place to socialise, and relax, if it doesn't fit into anything below it fits here, so tell us that joke, or share that story of your last off-road escapade, but remember new comers the virtual drinks are on you!

Hey Ed,
as for earlier post , don't trusts them lot, get them to produce a calibration cert, also arent they suppose to give a bit of leeway as all motors are not 100% accurate on the speedos, like 7-10% .

I know. I'm a hardened criminal now. I'm going to have to get a load of tattoos and piercings now. Life ain't the same on the wrong side of the law.

Don't get me wrong, I'm not one of these "Fuck the police coming straight from the Humberside, young cracker got it bad 'cause I'm white" types; I just think it's my typical bad luck getting caught doing the minimum punishable speed for the speed limit I was in when every hoodie and his dog goes down that same road in their lowered 3 pot hatchbacks at between 60 and 90.
There's three ways of doing things:

The right way,
The wrong way
And my way, which is like the wrong way but faster.
