Bloody ****ing roadworks and bloody ****ing useless diversion signs. Just got back from Kent after leaving at 8. Should have taken 2 hours but the A2 was shut and the ****ing diversion signs were going to take me to ****ing Dover until I found a better route.

Ah mate, Dover just down the road, not the worst place you could have ended up, in fact half the world risk their lives each day to try and get there.

Lucky that the French weren't on strike and 'operation stack' in place, then you really would have road rage. Bloody roads.

West Kent is OK for trees, particularly the High Weald area where I am. Heavy clays made it not great for farming. East Kent is a bit of an agri desert I find.

I lived in Egerton Forstal for 6 years, which is about as smack in the middle of Kent as makes no difference. Weald area clay. It is definitely colder, on average, than Hampshire. Always used to surprise me when we'd come back for a visit in early October, and we'd have a second layer on and get out of the car in Southampton to be met by a balmy warmth. Wasn't a fluke either. Statistically, I believe Hampshire goes into winter about 7-10 days after Kent and comes out correspondingly earlier. Not the sort of thing one would immediately notice, I feel, but we did.

As to trees, Kent has loads. Hampshire just has loads more. I like trees. :)
 
Six people died, and another two were seriously injured — including a 14-year-old girl who had been pronounced brain dead but squeezed her mother's hand as doctors were preparing to harvest her organs, police said. Amid the carnage, her case stood out as a miracle, authorities said.

The girl was initially reported dead. But more than an hour later, as doctors were preparing to harvest her organs, she squeezed her mom's hand, Michigan State Police Lt. Dale Hinz told NBC News. She was then able to respond to questions by squeezing her mom's hand several more times, and was rushed into surgery.

"It's an absolute miracle," Hinz said.

Makes you wonder how many times they give up on people. Medics need to check better.

Read previous posts. In the meantime, if you are desperate to talk about this subject on a football forum you can discuss it on here, or better still, go to General Chat where there is a lovely thread where some lovely Scotsmen are waiting to welcome you...
Anyway, what's IMP?
