Guys/Gals,

You lot have got to be more careful about posting messages relating to your speed on public roads!

I have seen on more then one occasion, very unfortunate consequences arising from such posts on the Internet.

Please donâ€™t let this thread make you see red!
Say no more.

Regards,
Chris.

:rolleyes:

For any plods reading may i please state that any time i have referred to illegal activities i have been either :

a) Writing about carrying on these activities in an environment where such stated activities due not represent a breach of local, national or international laws when such an act is carried out in that environment (e.g private roads, germany, holland, Thailand, etc)

b) Posting items contrary to the truth in order to impress my peers, in which case the stated activities never actually occured

c) Been refering to scenarios enacted through virtual reality simulations

d) Inadvertantly referring to dreams which i, at the time, foolishly mistook for reality.

Please feel free to draw your own conclusions on which of the above options relate to the alleged offence.

PS i am aware that it takes a car travelling at a maximum of 70mpg longer than one hour and 5 minutes to travel the approximate 90-100 miles from my house to the tescos in hertfordshire where i met other users of this forum. It has come to my attention that my clock in my spamspam is not displaying the correct time and as such i would like to announce that it actually took me 2 hours, 37 minutes and 51 seconds, a time which i am sure you will find to be more than reasonable.

Hey Mr AWOL,

You can't just "say no more"

.....how?......what consequences?

Without corroboration I doubt anything you say on the forum could be used to convict you of a motoring offence. It is well know that people can and do elaborate upon the truth and invent things on the internet.

Police may well use the net to obtain inteligence in order catch someone commiting an offence on the road....but lets face it
they are not going to say "that individual calims to have speeded in the past. So we'll spend lots of money finding out who he is and following him in an unmarked car so we can get him next time he speeds and fine him Â£60"

You'd need a lot more evidence than somebody claiming on a website that they went a certain speed at an undisclosed location...

Private airfields. Race tracks. Autobahn. Etc.

And that's even if you believe them to start with. (My dad could batter your dad...)

Mr AWOLs post made me crack up - sounds like something I would have written!

Duncans reply was to be expected, but not nearly enough long unfathomable words in it...Duncan you are slipping mate. Get a grip!

Do you get copmpaints about your spelling too?

Yes.....strangely enough it usually CB who complains......I did once ask Lyndon whether we could have a spell check built into the forum....but he has yet to oblige. Apparently I have a disability which affects my spolling

If there is a genuine reason for it Duncan then I unreservedly apologise to you

However, if its because you're wasted on crack then

I am Dyslexic...... but I can spell right if I bother. and I do it all without the aid of drugs

Dear authorities,

I would like to officially declare the inside of my Pergoet as a seperate state from the UK. This new state is known as 'Pugland'... and therefore when I am in 'pugland' I will be driving to the laws and regulations of 'pugland' that i have decided upon in my 'Decree of independence'. These are as follows:

1) All good free men and women are allowed to beep at old ladies driving too slowely ( <30 when clearly the speed limit = 30) on a road.

2) Anyone attempting to steal Pugland will have their 'bits' attached to the exhaust, and then a designated 'pugland driver' (me) will zoom the car away effectively causes the aforementioned privates to depart from the aggressors body.

3) Anyone who hits 'Pugland' will be dutifully called 'Dozy old moo-face' for the rest of eternity. By everyone. Including the policeman when she had gone!

4) Traffic wardens attempting to 'invade' puglands personal space, especially with little bits of paper -- will be lined up and shot outside parliament square. Even if they don't attempt to 'ticket' pugland .. they still have to give the car a damn good clean whenever they pass (even if it is parked on one of the lions in travalger square).

5) There are only a few 'capital' offences in Pugland. Staining the seat is one of them, no matter how exciting my driving has been.

6) When the G-reg Crappy Sierra pulls up beside 'pugland' at the lights ... owner of aforementioned sierra must officially repeat the following line 'I, Gary, of the local dodgy council estate, hereby agree that the Pug is 1 billion times better then my Sierra. No matter how much I rev up my Sierra, and sellotape spoilers to the back .. the Pug will always be 10000 times classier' He should then hang his head in shame, drive to the nearest wood, and burn out his car.

7) Pugland does not have speeding restrictions. Get over it.

Anyone who suggests any member of 'Pugland' ever takes public transport gets immediately, and publically flogged.
