cherbourg hill

Hi my how things have changed,when you used to get to the hill on the duel track you were pleased to get there never mind about a cafe it was the police you used to worry about,you were still not safe in the port until you were on the ferry,you never had time to eat,, there was one coppper he had a silver pistol [true]i forgot his nick name "motor bike" cop ..they would check your disks as you were queing to board ,and come into the terminial[truck line] to look for drivers,not in their trucks absolut BAST--DS you enjoy your meals in the cafes ..
on the run backto cherbourg,because me and loads of others never had time,allways chaseing the ferry ,from once loaded in ALMARIA the race was allways on,good old days YES,DO IT NOW,YES,the last eats was the fish resturant,BIGhits then, not big eats,,,ex ROKOLD...
