We were chatting to one of their colleauges on the SunSeeker this year who was spectating and he informed us that they were very slow and could not get funding for this year He then turns to one of my mates and ask's him have we had a good rally, to which my mate reply's yeh we have done 9 stages today So copper turns to him and say's so you have been keeping to the speed limits then we soon moved on and put the Police barrier tape back up a great day.

After a bit of entertainment last night following Ron at approx 6 metre's tied to a piece of rope that Ron pinched from soton dock's, setting the QE2 adrift!!, i had to take my car for a drive up wimborne bypass to charge the battery up, on arriving at the roundabout by entrance to ferndown industrial estate a black pug 306 indicated left so me think's at 9pm at night he's got to be a copper going to work so hit brake's and gently carried on up the duel carriage way to next roundabout and turned round, coming back down into industrial estate roundabout there's a black ford puma coming out of police headquarters he clocked me coming in at a rate of not's and then proceeded to travel the whole length of the bypass right down to merly at 35-40 mph trying to get me to pass ,but i had spotted the uniform back at the roundabout so hung back while other's over took the pair of us! He aint gonna take note of my plate so he can call his mate's i thought. Bar steward ruined my run...

So, it would seem you did use the fuel after-all Mike......

A bit of a fiasco really...... all that towing for nothing....
