Ok, Graham might not believe you Tina, but I will. Why? Because I have learned how hard it is to argue with the opposite sex, it's much easier to capitulate, and then go sulk in a corner.....

Going to join in Graham, or just sit and watch? Think they will stop for a break at some point? I have a blank video tape for the tv tonight, so I might just wait around and see the rockets go up...

It was a resurection of the "chelsea Tractor " debate brought about by the publication today in the British medical Journal of an article by a couple of Doctors saying; that you are twice as likley to die if hit by a large 4x4 as a normal car.

All the usual stuff that weve all heard before and my reaction was that it must be a slow newsday.

It was mostly tosh really - you could just have easily subsituted the word truck, bus, tram or horse drawn carriage into the equation and argued as good a case as was being made. ie. a big vehicle is going pulverise you if you get in it's way so consider banning them from cities - the chattering classes must have run out of things to wittle on about.

I thought it was a bit sexist too as it infered that large off roaders are driven by young mothers who have little idea of how to control them and constantly bash into pedestrians, bollards and other traffic.

Actually, on reflection, it was a load of bollards.
