thanks. says a lot, inc that i don't seem to know where to find things.

me too.

you get lost easily too then? I can cope if it's something like getting from my house to tesco, but I'd never cope in big places. Like here at times, it's too big, scary and confusing.

mmm. Bit like London. I like London, but its so BIG-still have yet to pluck up the courage to go there on my own. Always go with friends or family if I go.
How on earth I'd cope if i had to go off this planet like Ford or Arthur, I dunno!

Maybe that'd be easier to simply get off the planet. I mean, like you'd just need to get yourself beamed up. You wouldn't have to worry aboutr turning left at that roundabout or how not to get lost round an inner city one-way system.

Good point.
I have a driving lesson tomorrow. We're doing roundabouts, oh joy!

Roundabouts aren't too bad. Hopefully you won't get any of those scary big thre laned ones. We jave one here that a few years ago, they put traffic lights on and made the two lanes into thtree, so it kinda guides you round. It's scary at first, but you get used to it after a while.

sounds awful!
of course, what doesn't help now, is that all the councils are obsessed with signs and the roads are so cluttered with unnecessary notices its difficult to know what lanes to get in, where to turn sometimes...

Tell me about it.

I rewmember being in the car with a relative who's not from around here. We were trying to get to Ballycastle (a nearby town) and the sign said it was right at this roundabout. He then got confused on the rounfdabout as the sign for the left turn off said "Ballycastle Road Industrial Estate". he just saw the "Ballycastle" bit and got really cross when we tolsd him what it really said.

Can understand where he was coming from.

Flip me!! Last posted......Mar 8, 2005 eeekkkk.......

And we'd been talking about road signs!!!

Yeah. Why I've no idea. Anyway. I wonder if there is any info on what David Dixon's doing now. Will go and look on the web

or maybe that should be

I was just thinking that this morning myself. Know Simon Jones has done a few things, but never saw David Dixon in anything else.

no that's true. Simon Jones was in something a couple of years ago. I forget what it was exactly but I was going "Oh my God it's Arthur!.." when I saw him. He just is, isn't he? I can't think of anyone else who could play arthur so well.

Yeah. There's something about him. can't think what it was you saw him in. Know he was in Bridesheasd Revisted years ago and got a cameo in the Hitchhikers film too.
