An apology, as promised. I've spent the evening ploughing through the selected works of forgotten ABers like R1Geezer, Thatcherite, PetitAnglais, ZedBloke, MoonRocker and even Egara_Flegin, a poor backward wee mite who lived only a day before being suspended like the rest. And I couldn't find the post I thought I'd read at all (it wasn't about motorways, but you seem rather cross with people who don't drive fast enough). So for practical purposes it never happened and I misremembered it.

I did find a post along the way by someone called RedGrant, asking how the Romans counted big figures, which I will now answer in case he happens to be around. The very late Romans used all sort of letters: B=300, E=250, F=40, G=400, H=200, K=250, N=90, P=400, Q=500, R=80, S=7 or 70, T=160, Y=150, Z=2,000.

I hope that cheers you up. I am now light of heart, my guilty soul purged!

apology accepted though your actions got me suspended for 2 days. Next time be careful what you accuse people of without any evidence.

[royfromaus]

But you can now be accused of being a bit of a snowflake...yes?

Hailstone more like :-)

Tora, don't let the bustards grind you down :0)

TTT - Many of your posts criticise people who don't drive fast enough, you are assured (and proud) of your own riding skills (having done a three day course with the bloke who wrote that book), you are dismissive of the Highway Code and pleased to be an inveterate speeder when you choose to be.

If I had written what jno said, you wouldn't have been receiving an apology from me.
It was your childish responses which got you suspended so to blame jno is another example of your unwillingness to accept any sort of criticism.

♫ and what you give is what you get ♫

JTT: "TTT - Many of your posts criticise people who don't drive fast enough" - Nice switch, I criticise those that dawdle and do not keep up with the traffic, as per the highway code. I am not dismissive of 99% of the HC. I am critical of some points. Do you agree with 100% of the HC jack?
"if I had written what jno said, you wouldn't have been receiving an apology from me. " - why? You'd have been wrong, unless you can find the evidence that I said what jno said I said. I don't have much time for jno but at least he's man enough to accept he was wrong.
"It was your childish responses which got you suspended so to blame jno is another example of your unwillingness to accept any sort of criticism. " - yes I got angry at an untruth. I'll accept criticism as I do every day if it is based in fact and valid reasoning.

All this carrot dangling has me on tenterhooks! What didn’t you say that you were supposed to have said, TTT. Come on - spill the beans. ;o)

[ummmm]

TTT, jno is female.

jno said: "TTT used to argue that there was nothing wrong with speeding if you were a really good driver. " - I said or believed no such thing and he, after a search verified that and apologised.
The problem on this site is that people are often attributed as saying something when they did not, this is just such a case.

[ummmm]

'She'

[ToraToraTora]

ummmm:"TTT, jno is female. " - gender is 'not set' on the profile.

///When the road is clear ish I'll be in the middle lane doing 80, overtake either side if you want. Oh dam! I've given away another advanced driving secret!///

///I once held the speeding record for Dorset, ok ok I know, it's country bumpkin land but hey a records a record. ///

///For example my last SP30 was for doing 38 in a 30 at half past 8 on Sunday.///

Just a couple of R1Geezer snippets.......I've left out the repetition of your 3-day driving course with Jones "who wrote the book".

[ToraToraTora]

JTT, none of those are me and, they don't amount to jno's original accusation anyway. Why are you stirring this up?

[ummmm]

HaHa....busted.

[ummmm]

Stop lying, TTT.

[ToraToraTora]

Interesting the time gap between this post starting and the first comment. It's almost as if my fans were waiting for my return!

[ToraToraTora]

ummmm please explain a) how I'm "busted" and b) how I am lying? and jno has not set a gender.
