I like it. Lateral thinking.

[LazyGun]

Now that makes a lot more sense. Not sure about the new neighbours though! :)

[mccfluff]

which bit?

[emmie]

to the outer Hebrides most probably.

From the look of that map I'm going to have to start talking with a Dudley accent! :c(

[aelmpvw]

i've thought long and hard about this proposal and i can't see a downside

[McMouse]

The M40 should be widened to 20 lanes to accommodate all the rail replacement buses needed when HS2 is built.

Instead of moving cities, or disrupting tranquil rural Tory shires, why don't they extend the tube?

Behave yourselves

When do you want to start with your lessons then, fluffy ? lol.


Anyhoo, they'd better leave Villa park where it is, They can move St Andrews to Scotland if they like though ( well it does have a Scottish name ).

Cazzz, if it's only ten minutes closer to London, that's still up North to us Southerners ;-)

[mccfluff]

they've been trying to indoctrinate me for years tony, years, i will resist :-)

[tonyav]

You'll give in eventually, fluffy Mwah Mwah.

[mccfluff]
