It was going to be the in the left turn lane of side road I was passing who was using it to turn right and had "inched" forward about 2 foot over the line so I had to slam on and manoeuvre carefully past him.
But as I turned into my home street some plonker in a mustang was on wrong side of road, right up to white line and refusing to move. Thought for a moment he was a confused Yank but as I squeezed past , whilst being glared at for wanting to use correct side of road, spotted it was RHD.
Torn now ... Can I nominate them both?.

back onto the NHS - why does it take 4 to 6 weeks to get an Xray back to my GP? I thought it was digital pic now, and the Xray must be OK as the radiologist checked the 2 I had taken before I left the room. Surely its just a case of emailing the pics to my GP.
Friggin Knee is killing me for 6 weeks but cant go back to the GP without he has the Xray results.

it was my GP who requested it, so no consultant involved at this stage.

Because they spend days and days dealing with idiots that want antibiotics for every minor sniffle ( which don't do any good anyway). Then there are the that don't keep their appointments.

"Roadworks" that only seem to only have the purpose of creating a nuisance to road users.
This one is a great example, they dug the pavement up (area in blue) on Friday not sure why, with the area in red coneed off and lights in place, the hole was filled but not tarmaced yesterday, still there today and no since of further work. Its a straight stretch of road and there seems to be no reason for the lights and certainly no reason to leave them up for 24hrs a day since Friday morning.
Hole was tarmaced yesterday it's just 3' x 2' and guess what cones and lights are still in place! So that's a week of holdups for a little hole on the pavement!==================================

Ah, okay. I had calcification of the rotater cuff - jagged bits in the ball and socket bit my shoulder. Very painful, so know what your going thro'.Not had to have an operation, but the occasional cortisone injection. People say the jag is horrible, but if you really need it, you don't care!
Good luck

people who drive past a big public car park, so they can park on the pavement outside the local shop, blocking a road crossing section for kids, so they dont have to walk 5 meters to buy there packet of smokes,

for some reason today - its poor use of the english language. For example, Yahoo headline yesterday:
Bride-to-be shot dead by police in her pyjamas.
So what I want to know is what the poice where doing in her pyjamas - dont they have uniforms anymore?

SO,
after living a trucker's life on the german motorway for almost two weeks now, i can now confirm that at least on continental motorways the general holiday traffic suffers from an utterly disusting habit: passengers putting their feet on dashboards, side windows or even b-pillars. Whether they're bare naked, painted toenails or bandaged and with blue/black spots and about to fall off from their body or in washed out yellow stained formerly white socks, these body parts do not belong there. It's utterly disgusting.
