    Actually Grimsby was one of the first 'smaller' places to be connected up to the fibre optic telephone network.

    The one that the Railway laid and then Maggie sold off.

    I will get a snotogram in about three hours I expect


    Looks like my initial, near instant, logical deduction (guess - sorry once a consultant....) that he was a bloke 40+ from N. America was right.

    (I now also believe he is called Dwayne and lives with his Mom and has a limp)

    Glad you had a satisfactory "wang" at 5 this morning Kudos to you (whatever that might mean).

    Isn't "Red Barchetta" a Rush song. My guess is:

    Nationality: Canadian
    Age: 40's
    Sex: No

    HTH

    Btw EO, village names don't necessarily mean where they are now, it might be more Red Herring than Red Barchetta. Although I know someone who calls their village Middlesborough United which might be more of a clue to their age and location....

    It is surely too much of a coincidence not to have some connection with the Rush song - aren't they Canadian? (not that that really helps sorry)

    It could be a trap.

    Wasn't the Red Barchetta (actually an MGB roadster) of the novel used to lure two other cars into a head-on collision...

    There is one particularly aggresive guy who is destroying a friend of a friend, for no good reason (i.e. he stands to gain nothing)

    We know nothing about him, he plays a tight game , giving nothing away.
    He spawned a second village and called it Red Barchetta, its the only clue I have and I will get one shot at a suprise attack
    I must hit him whilst he sleeps

    (If he were a female, I would try diplomacy, a youngster I could get whilst they were at school, an older guy - it must be done at bed time)



    I will check that out, sounds fun...
