Meanwhile, back at the L&B, there is this: [MEDIA] There has been discussion elsewhere on NP about the misuse of AI, but do you consider this to be acceptable (most of the effects were achieved manually by traditional methods; only the last...

Not so good if you drive a Reliant Robin though

That's the bit that I always walk on, it's softer on my feet than the rest of the tarmac :-)

Old Kent Biker liked Steve's post in the thread Lynton and Barnstaple - Operations and Development.

That’s true ( for motorbikes.;) ). And a motorway is where the road is wide enough to put a white line down the middle.

Old Kent Biker liked 35B's post in the thread Lynton and Barnstaple - Operations and Development.

I spent an interesting hour sampling the objections last night, as can anyone with access to ENPA's portal - and I'm sure the Trust are doing. Some were reasonable and reasoned, others a little less so - and that from both "pro" and "anti"...

Old Kent Biker liked ilvaporista's post in the thread Lynton and Barnstaple - Operations and Development.

Indeed, getting a Ford Galaxy there was fun! It's a good job we went out of season. And to say my enthusiastic reaction to a concrete shed, in the garden of a modern bungalow, was not shared by anyone else in the car would be a severe...

Old Kent Biker liked Miff's post in the thread Lynton and Barnstaple - Operations and Development.

I agree with @35B - leave it to the railway and/or their planning consultants to refute objections, if necessary, in a professional manner. They will be watching, as anyone can, the incoming comments. Stating the reasons why the railway is a...

Old Kent Biker liked 35B's post in the thread Lynton and Barnstaple - Operations and Development.
