Took it to a LDC Committee meeting today and got a speeding ticket on the way home - Bstrds.
I’ve always thought that the LDC committee were very nice people!
PS Does that mean that you & Majorette Stripe have equal points on your licences?
Check out paras 67, 68 and 69.

From my reading of that it make no difference if the ‘nuisance’ was there before you. The position in law doesn’t consider the defence that a claimant moved to the nuisance valid.
That’s just utterly wrong.
I think you are only part correct there, the value given to the damages was reduced on account of the “coming to a nuisance” of one of the claimants; and there is recognition that the rule may work injustice…
Are we still on a car forum
Very helpful to read the judgment in full. I certainly thought that “Coming to a nuisance” meant it was your own stupid fault but clearly not.
The personal relationships certainly add spice

Nah - I’ve got more than her - she was only doing 36 and got the choice of doing a one-day course or taking points - but still had to pay the fine thus indicating the true ‘fund raising’ nature of the speeding ticket…
But these are my first points or speeding fine (in UK at least) ever. A thirty seven year clean licence zapped at last. I was let off for having a ‘care of’ address on my licence (a legacy of a previous military career and many addresses) and, fortunately, I had the full size VRN plate on the front.
(PS See Chicane No 75 if you have it to catch up with Pesky’s comments…
I think I posted something like this b4 so forgive me but.
For 21 years I taught kids (Air Cadets) to fly from an RAF station in the middle of nowhere.
We had regular noise complaints all from NIMBY’s.
It’s a pity most of them didnt pause to think a while before complaining.
The airfield was built in 1937-38 with the sole intent of being a component in a plan to ensure that citizens of this overcrowded Isle could have the right to their opinion.
It has since trained nearly every UK fixed wing Military pilot (and some rotary before streaming) who now fly Air Ambulances and the like for all our good.
Croft was also in some part a contributor…
“After VE-Day the Croft Lancasters were employed in ferrying released POWs back to the UK and in June both squadrons went to Canada taking their Lancaster Xs with them. A total of 138 Bomber Command aircraft despatched from Croft failed to return or crashed in the UK. Ten were Whitleys, 20 Wellingtons, 87 Halifaxes and 21 Lancasters.”
I think I might have thought twice before buying a house near an Airfield.
If some good and enjoyment for so many people can now come from these old airfields then long may it continue.
NIMBY’s - Should have loaded them up in the bomb bays and dropped them in the sea!
Cucking Focksuckers!

I think Gordon Broon relinquished that when we weren’t watching.
Having said that I agree with all you have said, and dont forget it was a race track in the 60s & 70s before opening in its current format

I hope you can see the irony in the complainant in this case exercising his right to have a different opinion.
Have a proper look at the usege figures over the years - it has certainkly increased dramatically from its days as a disused airfield…

Thank god we’ve got the National Party in over here now (equivalent of your tories)… we’ve suffered 9 years under a Labour government and they’ve fooked up this little South-Pacific paradise royally.
