Bit like some of the places we went through on Saturday!
That sort of thing is normal down there - must be something they put in the water - you haven't touched any, have you?
ps: decals great - thanx

I saw three outriders yesterday absolutly tanking it up the A41 with the blues and twos going. Brilliant to watch them it was. I could only dream of being able to handle a big bike like that

Unforunately genie, it's the only crap feature on the iPhone - no video recording capability and a crap 2 megapixel grainy sensor for stills.. Still it will prolly be on street wars soon I'd imagine you HAVE to hit the record button when taking a bug police pan down a footpath whilst on pursuit, just in case it all goes wrong etc. It'll make for seriously gripping stuff

Mental!!
