Hmmm.  One day a few months ago, we went over to her father's house on a Sunday 
morning.  The A14, like all English dual carriageways, has a 70mph limit.  She 
caught me at 85mph - and a kind of silence (many will know it) ensued.

On the way home, having drunk a lot of her father's beer, I was dozing.  I was 
woken by my children (a 16-year-old boy, Thomas, thomas@sievers.com and his 
14-year-old sister Jennifer, jenni@sievers.com) who mutely pointed to the 
digital speedometer.

93mph.
