Rally in General
 Rally in General ... and in all conditions: asphalt (tarmac), gravel, or snow and ice, sometimes more than one in a single rally, depending on the course and event. Rallies are also run every month of the year, in every climate, bitter cold to monsoon rain. This contributes to the notion of top rally drivers as some of the best car control experts in the world. As a result of the drivers not knowing exactly what lies ahead, the lower traction available on dirt roads, and the driving characteristics of small cars, the drivers are much less visibly smooth than circuit racers, regularly sending the car literally flying over bumps, and sliding the cars out of corners. Examples of rallies: Circuit of Ireland Rally, Dakar Rally, Monte Carlo Rally, Rally New Zealand, Rallye de Portugal, San Remo Rally, Scottish Rally Championship, Swedish Rally, Targa Newfoundland, World Rally Championship.Newest Review: ... of countless stories where people have downloaded a track to sample and went out and bought the album as a result. Sharing of music without buying it is nothing new. Back in the school days of the eighties and early nineties who didn’t tape an album for someone else? Now it’s just moved on to a digital age. Now up until this point I’ve had very little trouble with cd’s that come with copy ... more ... protection software on them. I’ve imported them to my Ipod with no worry, most haven’t given me a problem in my car cd player although it does take a while thinking about it. If worst came to worst, there was software out there to get round the problem. ...more |

In this wonderful age of technology we are able to buy things from the comfort of our own home, check our finances and tap into a wealth of information. We can now have thousands of music tracks on our person as we walk around town. Yet sadly some record companies have taken their product and retreated like a caveman scared of the sun. Just what am I talking about? Copy Protection on CD’s, that’s what. Namely those great folks at EMI who put out cd’s and then invite you to attempt to play them. Now the music industry were no doubt worried about their product when the likes of Napster came online and made it easy to download tracks for free. But did ...

~ Do you believe in life after death? I’m still not overly sure on this one, I like to think that when I die and cremated my body will be scattered to become rainbows, soft winds and fresh rain as well as trees and possibly a hamster. When it comes to ghosts and the like I personally feel that a lot of ghosts are like old recordings of people, after all cassette tapes are just bits of plastic with magnetic stuff on or something along those lines aren’t they?

Gloucester to Glencoe is a pretty long drive, try it, you?ll see what I mean. But on the way up to our Scottish holiday (before we?d spent too much money and couldn?t afford an overnight hotel) we decided to break journey. So picking a ?just over the border? spot at random, we chose Lockerbie. Now I haven?t requested a new topic for this as it is more of a review of my personal feelings of my visit and is rather an odd thing to write a review on. Now, Lockerbie was chosen solely on its geographic position on the M74, and had it not been for the events of December 21st 1988 I probably wouldn?t have even ...
