    Host Name Lookup Failed The Proxomitron couldn't find the site named...
    http
    Check that the name is correct. If so, the site may have changed or may no longer exist.
    Exactly the result we were all hoping for.

    Unless he meant this one

    Well done Les.
    And I to my motorcycle parked like the soul of the junkyard. Restored, a bicycle fleshed with power, and tore off. Up Highway 106 continually drunk on the wind in my mouth. Wringing the handlebar for speed, wild to be wreckage forever.

    Cool work Les - can we have a motorway down here too so we can play?
    In space, no one can smell your fart.

    Good effort Les.

    It appears from the letter that there is way too much beuracratic messing about as there are now 4 types of lanes on the motorway system.

    Beuracratics justifying there positions.......

    Not really surprising is it? They waste their time and our money making so many fucking types of lanes that the police AND public have no idea whats what, or who can use what.

    It then takes the likes of Les to give them a heads up, they have to go and get educated by NZTA, then pass around a simplified summary that the average cop can quickly read and follow.

    *sigh*

    Thanks Les...

    Well done. Is there anywhere we can see a copy of your original letter?
    What you have in your heart will be revealed through what you have in your life.

    If things are going badly in our circumstances, the answer to what is happening to us outwardly is more often than not found in the mirror.

    Supt John Kelly sounds like a very nice man. I think we should buy a beer for both him and Ixion. I'm sure if we sat them both down together with a few cold beers on a sunny afternoon, between them they could solve most of the problems we have with the police (and they have with us).
    There is no such thing as bad weather; only inappropriate clothing!
