I tend to do it on either bicycle or the fazer. Unlike the probable tard I keep ears and eyes open and move toward the side to allow vehicles to pass when safe. Beats cars racing passed so close they want to force you in the hedges
I've very nearly had a pile up today on the way home when coming down a country road (60mph) and finding two Lycra clad imbeciles in the middle of the road as I've gone round a bend :eek
And I'm not talking the middle of their lane, one of them was dawdling along by the central white line turning round and chatting to his mate.....f@&king retard!!!

So he was charged *two years* ago and only now has he been convicted.
Ok, the fine and, more importantly, the five points are good, but probably by now most drivers will have forgotten all about this law (especially given the number of Middle-Lane Larrys I've seen out there), so it's hardly going to be much of a deterrent
Re: Today's "What Gets My Goat" - johnakay - 07-07-15
everything you buy have shrunk but my foccing waist haven't.
jeans says 40" but more like 38",42" to foccing big.

I just cheat. I still buy the same waist size, but stretch jeans, or cargo trousers with an elasticated waist band :lol

Pretty sure that my trousers are shrinking... *stuffs another biscuit in mouth*

Pensioners & people that don't work in the supermarket at weekends!!
you have all week to do yourshopping when we are at work so why clog up the roads & shops at weekends?
CORMAC!! ( for those that don't know they are the Cornish council workers CORMAC stands for Cant Organise Road Maintenance Around Cornwall)
oh yeah we wait until May to start any major road project that is going to last 6 months so we block up both main roads in & out of the country at the same time at the busiest time of the year!! we will cone off dual carriageways for miles and only do work on 200 yards a week!! the rest is coned off ..... for safety...fucking hell that length of road you could land 3 jumbo's on if it weren't fecking coned off!!!!
and breath.....

People like Robbie who have no time for pensioners shopping, Supermarkets are open until 21.00 hrs some are open 6x 24 hours.

What really annoys me is people, particularly young people whom insist on using the word 'like' all the time as a conversation filler . . . "you know what I mean like", " I was like all . . . " drives me nuts. What's worse is that upwards inflection at the end of every sentence that makes everything seem as if it's a question!?! It's this I'm referring to

At work in the film industry, the word that bugs the hell out of me is "amazing".
Was sitting upstairs minding my own business having lunch and there were a production team sitting next to me.
"How are your Cheese & Chive crisps?"
"Oh they're amazing!"
"Really? The same as my watercress and celery seeded baguette, it's amazing too."
"What about your beetroot and plum smoothie?"
"Oh it's truly amaz......"
"OH FUCK OFF!" :wall

Some cnut walking around London with an IS flag draped over his shoulder and a kid sat on his shoulders waving a small IS flag just over a week after 30 British people were murdered on a beach in Tunisia by IS. The police said they can't do anything about it because he hasn't done wrong FFS.
