Firstly, my thoughts are with everyone caught on the M3 at the moment, however I joined the southbound M3 1/2 hour ago, and the whole motorway myside was empty, not a single other car !!!
The sun is shining, its a lovely day, so you have to seize the moment don't you
Turned on ther GPS and decided to see what could be achieved ..... bearing in mind it a bit down hill, and the only attention I have given my coop for the last few months is smacking the rear 1/4 on an iron bar.....

Well I don't think it was worthy of such acclaim, however without Prejudice ( just incase ) a constant 163 was registered for approx 2 miles or so

which section was that Julian - it all gets a bit snakey around eastleigh way, and you don't get a decent piece of road until after Rownham on the M27. Tho' the southbound section between Junction 8 and the services is great late at night.

Just be careful admitting to breaking the law quite so flagrantly Gents. I don't think you could be prosecuted but still......

Just a thought

Well it would still be against the law for him to do 166 on the motorway. Unless that's 166 sheep spotted per hour or leptons or something like that.

lol - me and cowboy cancel them out

And I was using a synonym (I think ) when I refered to sheep per hour.

You are no doubt refering to your actual A pillar mounted sheep counting device used when you nip to Wales

Bugger I would soooo love to see an empty motorway! Just for 5 minutes.

Zipping past cars in a slow lane at more than double their speed is somewhat... overly exhilerating..!

Well you have to keep the sheep counter turned one, probably one of the best female forms ive encountered from there though not as cuddly lol
