Do cows in Jasmine, Saskatchewan get arrested very often for mooing within 300km of a home? The gaols must be full of cows.

If a cow moos within 300km of your home and no one hears it has it really moo’d?

My everyday car is low enough on emissions to not incur ULEZ charges as is my wife’s, but my much older LR Defender is completely exempt due to its age, but it’s an old diesel and the pollution when in use is off the scale, but it’s okay for me to drive it in any zone even with trailer attached and another vehicle up on it :point_right: the whole ULEZ thing is utterly daft just like Kahn :face_with_symbols_over_mouth:

Wow! drove herself when off duty? Almost like the other citizens who’s job doesn’t involve waving then? Perhaps they should get a few million pounds from the taxpayers too?

She used to service and maintain army trucks during the second world war Bruce, so our young men could go off to fight Hitler…

How amazing she knew how to drive :rofl:

She drove her father around .

The Norwegian word for ‘king’ is ‘kong’.
