Speeding women drivers...

So, Suz's car is off the road, as it needs some of the usual welding at the end of the rear sills, and rear wheel arch, and the MOT ran out a month ago.

Suz's works in Leatherhead, which is a 30mile journey round the M25 during the morning rush hour, so is normally when she drives to work in her car, it's a good hour, to an hour and a quarter run. When she gets to work, she sends me a text to let me know she has arrived safely.

For the last couple of weeks, since we got back from holiday, she has been using my car to drive to work, and she has been getting to work in 45mins, and one day did it in half an hour!!!!

This morning, we were talking about driving, and she said, "Your car is dangerous!"... "What?" says I, a man who is proud of the fact that my car should be one of the safest on the road. She says, "I keep finding that a car is in the way, so I go a bit faster to get past it, then there is another, so I go a bit faster, next thing I know, your car is cruising comfortably at 77MPH, where as mine likes to sit at only 60MPH and I have to push it to go faster, so you car will get me caught for speeding".

I did mention the rather fast arrival times she has been getting to work in, but apparently that's nothing to do with speeding, it's just the traffic has been kind!!! Yeah Right...
