On coming traffic swerving in to the middle when we are filtering is Fukin nobish I agree. When that happens I just stop and they won't hit anything stationary.
Even if u were to pull slightly past the vehicle that's stopped to let someone out of "any side road" and u had stopped also....it would go 50/50 because of ur road position. Always best to hang back a little if ya can.

You're misunderstanding me.
No side turnings at all.
I'm on about an oncoming vehicle ahead of the vehicle in front of me, that is given the go ahead for right of way.
They then swing in left to go around the vehicle in front of me then swing right again, straight into my path as I'm waiting, quite patiently and innocently I'll hasten to add.
Just 'cos they can't see me doesn't mean they shouldn't be careful.

Back to fireworks, there has to be some law introduced as to the size of ones that you can buy for your garden. Last year right next to my car was the remnants of a rocket it was about the size of a loo roll and quite thick and solid plastic at the bottom, if that had hit the car it would of put a dent in it. People in their back gardens are sending these things up without a care in the world as to where the remains will fall.
I also found the stick in the road which was about 3 feet long and 1/4inch thick FFS

I've always argued the fact that you can get nicked for randomly dropping a cigarette butt on the floor, but it's perfectly fine to launch the equivalent of a stick of highly explosive dynamite into the air towards some unsuspecting victims property, not only blatantly littering but possibly causing a major fire hazard or resulting in serious injury to some poor sod.
Re: Today's "What Gets My Goat" - fazersharp - 07-11-15
We have a "diverse community"
where I live and it almost seems like there is an arms race as to who is closer to their religion by who has the the biggest firework.I also had to remove a big rocket stick off the southern wing of sharp halls roof which was heading for the gutter.
They should be micro chipped with the launchers name and address.
Re: Today's "What Gets My Goat" - Exupnut - 07-11-15
When I lived in Brixton the kids would by shit loads of rockets and get some long tubes and blank one end off and foccin bazooka each other....one day a guy in a suit was walking by our house and one of the kids fired a rocket at him and it wedged into his day sack....he must have heard the rocket fizzling so he started to run....foc knows why but when the rocket went off he sort of shit himself and landed flat on his front .....me and the mrs an kids pissed ourselves laffin...then he got up and chased the kid who was screaming like a banshee and when he caught him he gave him a slap and nicked his money/fone/and remaining rockets and buggered off ......
Re: Today's "What Gets My Goat" - joebloggs - 07-11-15
I worked with a local lad in Jersey and they set a world record for launching rockets, 50000 or something like that. Anyway, took them several days to set up the attempt and over a week to clean up the mess they left lol

Good job it didn't hit the car - It's a Renault which would have folded in half
