Interesting websites...

Thanks Lovejoy.

 

I hadn't seen that french link. There is some useful stuff in there. Some good interior shots. I don't have the original steering wheel or the column shroud. It has helped confirm what I'm looking for and that LHD is no different to RHD. Good to know

This site could keep us in "one shite picture per post" for weeks:

OMG FRED REZUREKSHUN!!

 

A few weeks ago I was listening to Radcliffe & Maconie on 6Music. They have a regular feature called 'The Chain' http://www.bbc.co.uk/6music/shows/radcl ... the-chain/

 

A chap they spoke to who had rung in for the chain was a lorry driver, who was unloading in Birmingham after picking up a load of chocolate in France. When they asked where he lived, he said "in my cab", they were a bit surprised by this. He then explained how for the past 6 years he has been living in the cab of his Scania, just going wherever the job takes him...He has no 'bricks & mortar', just the cab of his wagon...

 

In the conversation with R & M he mentioned a web-site/blog where he posts updates and films about his journeys.

 

I suppose he's a bit "marmite", you either like or hate, but I must say, I find his blog interesting.

I was listening to that too, (BBC 6 is permatuned in my Warranty Den) and meant to check the website out, but utterly forgot. Ta for reminding me.

Might as well add this in here... http://www.ceoemail.com/

 

It's a list of the personal email addresses (and telephone numbers, where known) for chief executives of many of the largest UK companies.

 

I used the Vodafone CEO's email address to complain about the thoroughly & repeatedly cocked-up delivery of a new phone to me a couple of years ago. Two unhelpful & downright rude mongs were sacked as a result of my complaint, and I got a substantial discount on my phone contract by way of apology. Which was nice.

It's gone a bit anoraky, but Pathetic Motorways served as infrequent entertainment while I was last at university. M64 anyone?
