HLaB Marie Attoinette Fan Location That little part of Scotland known as Peterborough 21 May 2008 #7 I voted MPH, it has more meaning to me although if I'm talking to an Ozzy mate I have to convert to KPH and figures sound more impressive.

Fab Foodie hanging-on in quiet desperation ... Location Kirton, Devon. 21 May 2008 #8 Aperitif said: Winter is the time furlongs Dan Bo... Click to expand...
