Thats only because I have been doing rounds for 3.5 years now though so know pretty much all rounds and have mastered the art of folding newspapers to the exact size of letterbox's. :wink:


I imagine the 'American' style of doing things for some reason; going round on a bike and throwing the newspapers.

My "customers" are so picky that the chances of being able to get away with that are about zero. Some of the ones on the round I have done today have complained in the past that I have had to split the sunday paper into 2 to fit it through their letter box.

Also on my weekday round a house near the end of the round complained on a day when it was torrential rain that their paper was "slightly damp".:angry::angry::angry::angry::angry::angry:

I also got verbally abused by a women in a house when I knocked on her to door to appologise that I had given then the wrong paper and to swap it for the correct one. Supposedly I had woken up her husband who works nights and thus a worthless peice of s*** in her eyes to be abused for my inconsiderate incompetence that was obviously intented to cause her huge inconvenience. :rolleyes:

I wouldn't consider myself amazing. I do some online championships on gtplanet.net with people who are much better (top 100 in the world.)

And why not play on manual, its more realistic and gives you much better control of when you want the powerband, especially for rally.

Here is another one I did with a 900bhp le mans Bentley, once again it looks much better hd and full screen :wink:
