The year before last I was coming down the straight Military Road, IOW, at quite a lick, enjoying the scenery, when I looked back at the road proper and saw it had a bloody big kink in it. Had to scrub off enormous amounts of speed in the cold and wobble round on the wrong side of the road. Thankfully, being Jan 1st, there were few cars around. Certainly gave the road a bit more attention after that though.
Motorbiker died recently on the Military Road....looks tempting, beautiful ribbon sweeping round the bottom of the Island, but also used by buses and has a cliff drop....side ways skid and you're a goner.

I used to swim at Bursledon regatta every year in the mid to late 60s .................. Wouldn't do that now (not sure I should have been doing it then!!)
We used to curse the water skiers when we were pottering along in our rowing boat. I didn't realise it was you FLT. I think it was stopped because of the banks eroding with the wash.
“I was at a party recently, and it was difficult to hold my hors d’oeuvre plate,” she reportedly said. I know how she feels. I've had so much on my plate at times I can hardly lift it even with a good wrist.
I guess, (and would hope) that most Americans have liability cover and she's really just suing the insurance company. Probably goes on all the time in that crazy country. I'm holidaying there next year, I'll let you know if anyone hits me with a lawsuit.
Attention console folk: PS4 or Xbox One? Managed to turn a tenner in to £400 or so through the international break, so going to treat myself to a new console. Advice needed.
Have a PS4, had it for nearly 2 years. No problems with it so far with a really good range of games (uncharted, last of us, witcher are ones i would really recommend, though the first two are ps4 exclusive). Haven't played X1 so can't compare but the graphics are such a step up from PS3.
A lot of bank erosion going on there. Some well meaning river user will have to put a stop to that. please log in to view this image A strategically placed log puts a stop to any more showing off from a young FLT.
