Just got back from a trip to Ripon where I was playing in an orchestra
concert. Blimey - there must be something about Bank Holiday weekends
- every other car was broken down by the side of the road. People
were just driving along, and suddenly *kaput* - their car gave up the
ghost. I must have counted 300 broken down vehicles(*).

So my sincere apologies for doubting you on this one, Doug.

*actually, I saw 2 in a 70 mile round trip. So Dung makes a tit of
himself. Again.

I went up to Scarboro and back and didn't see a single one.


Not bad for a 15 mile journey!

44 mile round trip on main holiday route.
