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.
