Reminds me of back in 1977 when British Rail (as it then was) launched the Intercity 125 service from London to Bristol. I went to a meeting near London and instead of the direct route home (Exeter) I took a ride on the IC125 to Bristol. I used the coffee test and there was hardly a ripple when we hit 125mph (and stayed there for quite awhile) and I sat near the end of the car over the truck (deliberate choice). It took me longer to get home but it was worth the thrill of the ride (I was young then!). Memories are made of this....

I've a good memory for whatever I can remember!
If you wait for perfection you will never do anything but it doesn’t stop you wanting it.
Age doesn’t stop you, it just slows you down.
If you only learn one thing in life - learn to think how your actions and words affect others BEFORE doing or saying.
