Who me?

No, that's the office, it's part of some converted stables in the middle of a country park. Very nice place to work. View out of the window is fantastic in the summer (like now).

By the way, I like Chris's shot - nice. Makes me want to try out a track day.

It's not my favourite (that's on my PC at home), but this one's not bad, and follows in the on-track theme;

Yeah...true.

Although on Sunday coming back from Colechester, a Fiesta did!.

A complete idiot decided to pull out of a slow moving (10mph) lane right in my path as I was doing around 40-50....another case for the ABS!....the fiesta luckly was giving plenty of distance, and luckly he saw the prick in front of me...I on the other hand did not have much reaction time.

I love the 2! ... especially those breaks!

I love the juggling act of trying to stop in front of that car that pulls out, while simultaneously using the rearview to stop slowly enough that the car behind doesn't run into you. Done that too many times and survived.

As most of you know I have only been driving a year!!!! I have had a lot of good advice from people here and reading roadcraft. I had never felt ABS before, but twice now have used it with pricks pulling out in front of me. This time, I managed to hammer the pedal, whilst looking in the mirror at the fiesta (who I knew the distance) and then also pulled partly into the gap that the "prick" had left when he pull out. I could not believe how close it was, surprisingly my passenger thought it was handled very well!. So thanks for all who told me to test what ABS was like and to teach me to actually steer around trouble when breaking!.

I didn't. If I had, I'd have got you some green 'L's s:)

s:) I did the IAM thingy (most of which is based on roadcraft) six months after I'd passed my test. Views may differ as to whether the IAM stuff is the right stuff, but IMHO it's better than just the basic test.

You managed to factor in to that balance leaning on your horn as hard and long as you can? Once you can do that you are truly ready to leave the dojo.

It'd be interesting if it was somebody that wasn't there...

Sorry Animal, I couldn't help it.

It would be pretty hard for someone who wasn't there to have taken it.
