Hmm

check out this old BBC news story.

http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/wales/mid/3077148.stm

Then think why they used the pic they did.



Good aint it !

The key word in the story is illegal. As was expressed in the original splash thread, keep the big splash games to areas where you will not damage the ground or p&p sites.

The point is though, although the picture may be perfectly legitamate, put some different
text under it and it becomes an effective anti4x4 slogan.

Ignorance is bliss

I think that learning from our mistakes, and learning from out peers mistakes kinda marks us out from any other species on the planet.

After all, all I seem to be doing is offering friendly advice, trying to ensure people don't have their motors taken off them.

I don't do opinions. I find it easier to stick to facts.

I will stand forward if it makes you any happier, I have driven through puddles on lanes faster than I probably should have, much like when I was a boy I used to dump the clutch and wheelspin my RS2000.

I dont do either these days.

I am not preaching to the forum, although I can understand that you may think so.

Jon, I have been a naughty boy, not hugely naughty I might add...and very infrequently, but I have seen the otherside, I campaign to keep lanes open, I participate in lane repair days, and this is where I might be of use to you, I inform people where they can and cannot drive.

all the best

This has escalated from Myself and the the rest of the **** sisters Line up making a big splash on a perfectly Legal Road without Breaking any Laws. we didnt Break the Law Dai, so why has this Thread just gone totally off the Scale? i cant see what the problem was with us posting a big splash on a Road with a 60mph Speed Limit on it.

That Frontera has a Sexy Looking Splash though, good effort.

G.

I never saw the picture.

I never removed the picture.

I was replying to others comments.

That's what a forum is for.

No worries Dai, I was only having a wee dig about the old news report thats all.

Any advice is greatly appreciated from someone who's " been there & done it"

As for the "sinister looking character" better speak to the TUSC officials on that one Smile

Cheers, Jon
