Red Pearl in Scotland

Spotted tonight on the M74 near Lockerbie Jct 17 at about 2045hrs.
I saw the Red Pearl (pretty sure it was) overtake me at a rate of knots, i flashed you in as i was in the works truck not the D3. You are a bit far north, did you have your passport for the border. Laughing

Did you see the car a little further on, on the hard shoulder sitting on its rear right hand hub Shocked Looks it may have fell off its jack. The female of the car was running down the hard shoulder towards the phone.

It's OK, they've been let back into England. Spotted in Lancashire at 3ish today on the M61. The RP is fairly distinctive and I even had time to raise a hand and wave it as we closed at 180mph ish in our respective fast lanes*. Didn't have time to see who was driving though.

* if the plod that I was overtaken by two minutes later is reading this forum, I was doing 70, the RP was doing 110.

Yep I did Thumbs Up I saw over loaded small car on its azz presume blow out, 3 kids arguing in the grass, mum stomping towards man who was looking at EPhone as if it was some sort of alien communication device.
 In the Beginning there was nothing, which exploded.

Thats some going that Thumbs Up but the most important thing is that you got back for a couple of scoops at the end of the day. Was quite surprised to see you fly by up this end of the country. Did the border patrol give you any grief.
