The "new" authority will border Newcastle.

So the hour long drive to Berwick will be reduced to a few minutes for most involved.

Like the new signature CC ....................... partial quoting is a trait on TDO .................... but it was an obvious genius that made the statement.

Don't you mean the complete statement.

You know the bit after that that was interupted by the same bearded scouser with roars of laughter.

Glad to have been the sourse of ammusement ................ although I stand by my statement when I had the opportunity to complete it.

You''l be telling me taxis are driven by taxi-drivers next?

B. Lucky :D

I doubt the bearded one will ever let me forget it :lol:

The true statement, for those who weren't there was -

These books are written by people who write books (then there was a very slight pause until I continued after being interupted by laughter) and not by people who have driven taxis.

I was refering to the VRQ (BTEC) and NVQ workbooks.

B851ARD's

The word on the street is that the district council areas will be retained as zones for HC.

But they wont be able to do that for PH.

We highlighted twenty years ago in another thread that zoning was being discussed as the prefered option for the time being.

I suspect Zoning is what all almagamating UK authorities will opt for.

Would that not go against the best practice guidance that says zones must be removed :?:
