Absolutely nothing - I'd love a classic Lambretta - do they come with stabilisers?I was actually checking my driving licence - passed in 1988 and not sure if it gives me provisional entitlement up to 125cc (I think it used to, but that has probably changed).

However, as I'm no grease monkey I'm probably better sticking with my Skoda. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neilser Posted October 27, 2015 Share Posted October 27, 2015 (edited) Making Movies - Dire Straits Great shout - I listened to this online at the end of last week for the first time in ages. Excellent album, especially Tunnel of Love which has Roy Bittan from the E Street Band on piano. My dad's aunt used to live just a few yards along the road from the Spanish City which featured in the song. On first listening I thought Mark Knopfler was making a reference to the Spanish Civil War but it's in fact a reference to the amusement park of that name in Whitley Bay. Don't look for it, it's not there anymore... Edited October 27, 2015 by neilser Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
