I use to live near Stuart and a few years ago my ex organised him to attend an It’s a knockout event, at her school! A while after a friend of hers bought her a lovely painting of some giraffes. I came home, admired the picture then noticed the artists signature. It was Rolf Harris! Like I say she’s my ex so I dodged the conversation when asking how the kids are, “They’re fine, Gary Glitter has taken them to the Jimmy Salville appreciation society where Rolf Harris is doing portraits.” 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same here about Jimmy Savile, I worked with somebody that used to work for the police and she said they knew about Savile, that was in the year 2000 she told me that and he wasn't outed until 2012 Anyway back to the Speedway Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One lap dashes would be good, or, timed laps perhaps. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, but the reason it's like that is that the people who make the rules only think as far as the end of their nose, not the possible implications because I bet they didn't even realise the point you're making! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now we need riders blindfolded with hessian sacks on their heads, with buxom milk maids in pigtail wigs, stood on each corner shouting "Left! Left! Left!" when they ride past.. Could really catch on this.... And, more importantly... Add some much needed credibility to the operating model!!!....
