    There is something seriously wrong with you. So many of your posts tend to have some little perverse kind of sexual undertone to them, presumably you're a habitual Kleenex user. Honestly, it's like a teenager going through puberty and discovering a stash of porn and giggling over it with their mates and pretending that they're wise to the world of sex when in reality, they haven't got a clue what it is all about. Now grow up, let your balls drop and try and be a real man rather than trying to pretend to be one

    Why is Kent called the Garden of England?

    What's this "we" tulip? Do you really think "we'll" get a say in this?

    Yet another non-existent threat that you’re afraid of?

    The cynic in me tends to agree with your version of events though...

    started a topic Anyone in Kent?

    Anyone in Kent?

    You might want to rethink your travel plans on Monday morning:

    HGV convoy to take part in trial runs for Manston post-Brexit lorry park plans – The Isle Of Thanet News

    To ensure the route from Manston to Dover can safely withstand an increase in HGV traffic, we are conducting a live test on Monday 7th January. This test will establish the safest optimum release rate of HGVs from Manston airfield along the proposed route on the A256 to the Port of Dover, and how any impacts could be managed.

    “The DfT has sought participation of up to 150 HGVs from hauliers, via contacts through the Road Haulage Association and Freight Transport Association, to carry out the test. The intention is for two test runs to take place, one in the morning peak time departing around 08:00, and another departing at around 11:00, to assess times taken from Manston airfield along the A256, and from the bottom of the A256 to the Eastern Docks roundabout at the entry of the Port.
