Re: Lighting...
The times when I feel the need to over-ride my automatic lights are very few and far between. They even seem to cope with fog these days. The thing I dislike about my auto headlights is I can't switch to main beam on empty side streets with lots of parked cars in town. It ignores the stalk position...

Re: Posting pictures
What is the easiest free way to put up a photo? Try this ( https://imgbb.com/ ). No need to register. It even generates the code to put in your posting for you and does thumbnails, small images and full fat ones. I'd suggest you remove any EXIF data from your pics before posting anywhere. FB etc. d...

Re: 20mph alternatives
