I have been in Hilton 4 months now. When I parked next to your car, I was looking round to see if anyone was trying to catch my eye. Yours is the one with the tan interior? About a month ago I was sat outside the Brook when a red machine has come past. It worried me at the time because my car was supposed to be at home and I wondered if someone had stolen it and was heading for the A38! I have noticed a silver NA sometimes visits Hilton.

Just watch out for the roundabouts in Hilton (Derby) there are a lot of them and they are cambered the wrong way, more like "the wall of death" than the usual camber. On the face of it this sounds good. However it can be treacherous as the dirt and oil can't get away. I would not be willing to put in print that I took advantage of the design of the roundabouts. I have heard said that some people lift sharply as they are approching the apex of the roundabout to unsettle the rear then get back on the power adjusting their exit angle.... If pl*d is reading this I would like to add that I get very scared even hearing about such antics and have only mentioned this as a warning to any drivers that might be passing this way.
