They don't it was a typing error on my part!!!!



smile thought you had discovered something new there.

With no solid evidence of who commited the crime there is nothing the police can do really. This is why we pay our insurance..

Am I missing something or just completely off track, all of my cars but two have had front and rear wings, the older term "quarter" is much less used.

On a quick check, Vauxhall, Ford, VW, Nissan and Toyota all use the term rear wing.

And of course F1 use rear wing to mean something quite different.

So I was right DD...yeah come to think of it all the cars I've ever owned have had 2 rear and 2 front wings.

They were always listed in the parts catalogue rear wings, when I worked at the motor factors!!!

I think with the policing the problem is that the bobby on the eat isn't a local lad, they do this to protect the bobby from any firm of abuse. A bobby in Wallasey will be from Birkenhead and so on. After talking to a mate who is a bobby I found out that he and his mates had a saying about Wallasey residents, this shows as clear lack of respect for the people and the area, as long as they go home at the end of the shift they don't care if the area is a better place.

I am not sure how the community bobbies work but I know the same rule applies to specials. We have too many police officers who had abused or bullied child hoods and now seem to be out for revenge against the world.

They really seem to be power crazy! This is true of a few officers and not all mind. It is a generation thing and hopefully will change
