I passed our rank (ha!) and could see about 7 drivers huddled together, yesterday, in the blazing sun

they were standing in the shade from a telephone box, what was odd was that none had english as a first language...

Why was that odd? In most cities you would be hard pressed to find a group of 7 that DID have English as a first language.
By the way did you see me going through Lichfield in my pink limo last night or did I pass through un-noticed. :mrgreen:

Of course you can and as it's run on a restricted PCV license, you can even have a drive if you like.
