They are withholding the name because it is probably 'Kennedy'.

Beat me to it.
Was gonna ask how a person might drive a coca-cola. Those cans are so SMALL. Horsepower must be what, 1/2 to 1?
LOL!

That particular car (Vauxhall Corsa) is not much bigger than a coke can.

I would think that its easier getting through your British teen years if you're drunk.

Concerning the recent thread about how GM is faring in Europe, Vauxhall is GM.
To: flitton
In Britain, they must refer to "drunk-drivers" and "drunk-driving" as "drink-drivers" and "drink-driving."
Otherwise, the author of this newspaper article was obviously "drink-writing."
To: atomicpossum
It's also easier getting through Christmas with the relatives if you're drunk.

Hold muh pint of bitter and watch this.
Does anyone know how the British method of measuring blood alcohol (micrograms/100 milliliters) translates to the American BAC%?

I blame the teletubbies. I know I would have to be drunk to watch that.

Does anyone know how the British method of measuring blood alcohol (micrograms/100 milliliters) translates to the American BAC%? "The legal limit above which you must not drive is 35 microgrammes of alcohol per 100 millilitres of breath, or 80 microgrammes of alcohol per 100 millilitres of blood."
The numbers are the same, using the blood alcohol concentration. In my search, I learned there's a movement to lower the limit to 50 micrograms per 100 milliliters to be like the rest of Europe.

Is that the celtic rock band The Drovers??Chicago's finest.
