    Splintering in pine floorboards

    Your best bet may be to do a small test patch in an inconspicuous area? Maybe trying a water based and and oil based varnish over the existing finish, you may get lucky and find you can apply over the top, which would be a cracking result and you'll owe me copious amounts of virtual beer!

    police + 160mph = ?

    I can understand and appreciate the need for training at these speeds, I have no problem with that. But to prevent misuse of the priveledge of such a position certain procedures should be implemented and I'm suprised that they don't exist already! Anyone requiring high speed driving training...
