Just twigged after a couple of years why my daughter's dog-nannycams irk me. They look like EVE in fancy dress as Kenny.

With regards the "too bright headlights" DfT review, the worst I've ever experienced was the blue strobe on an oncoming cop car on the dualled A19 late at night. I had almost no vision for a solid two seconds.
While they do need to be more visible, I don't think anyone needs 70mph laser surgery.

It's weird how all the FA's punishments for owners being ****s hurts the club and fans but not the owner. Still, with Kim Jong Tuna effectively out of the way now it should clear the path for all the prospective new owners who noped out of dealing with him. Right?

Anyone ever had a night of sleep so bad that in the 90 minutes of actual sleep you had a dream about having an entirely different bad night of sleep?

As I read through hundreds of articles a day constructing SpeedBites, I just have one question: where have all the proof-readers and sub-editors gone? Even massive outlets are just lousy with errors, not just in the articles but in the headlines too.

Been mucking about with PC sims for a couple of weeks reviewing a wheel, and although my box is made only to power through word/photo/video editing, it's dealt with every game at 1080p60 and not even warmed up...

While filling up (all 72 litres)in the village at the only left-side pump with 95, I became aware of a DS3 loitering. It went once around, and I spotted the P-plates.
