    This country has gone MAD!!!

    Got to have a rant today.... Beautiful morning this morning, so I got up at 9 and took my car from the underground car park and parked it on the deserted cobbled lane behind the apartment where I live, washed it, polished it, saw no one not another car on the road. Went in pulled on some...

    Shoppers on a Christmas trip to France were taken to the wrong country after a satellite navigation blunder diverted their coach seven hours off course. Instead of arriving in Lille, France, 50 members of Cheltenham and Gloucester (C&G) Social Club were taken 98 miles (157km) away to Lille...

    I'm considering a respray for my W210 as it's riddled with rust spots. With most of the expense being the manual labour to prepare and only a small amount of the cost being for materials, I suspect the cost of a re-spray would be much lower in somewhere like Poland. Has anyone tried this...

    Quaint country village pub recommendations?

    I have the in laws over at the moment and one of their requested trips is they want to see a typical little country village and go for a traditional pub lunch. I'm thinking thatched roofs, open fireplace and decent pub grub in a pretty village somewhere. I'm driving them down to...
