Hi all! We have been experiencing an issue on site where threads have been missing the latest postings. The platform host Vanilla are working on this issue. A workaround that has been used by some is to navigate back from 1 to 10+ pages to re-sync the thread and this will then show the latest posts. Thanks, Mike.

    Classic: @ 0:22 car at the lights is over the white line (in the ASL area): "government spends millions on road markings and the drivers don't frakking take any notice of them"

    And seem to be unaware of how roadways are financed ("paid for by car owners"?).
    Roadways are financed from general taxation. Everyone, car owner or not, pays for them.

    I'd go further; car drivers are subsidised by the tax payer in every western country: the cost of providing infrastructure, policing, maintenance, etc. is not covered by the car-specific tax revenue, but must be made up from general taxation.
