I see that more and more these days People driving around with DRLs on in the dark thinking that there lights are on
Just as bad as all the muppets who cant be ar*ed clearing their car of frost/snow and have a letter box clearing on the windscreen.They all must be ex Tank drivers i wish there were more police on patrol to stop them and convict them,dangerous clowns Its not the height of the fall but the sudden stop at the bottom that hurts!!

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?

Banks and building societies. I want to open a new account, and they need to check my identity. That I can understand, but now everyone is going parerless itās harder to find an āoriginalā copy of a statement or a utility bill. Why the canāt they accept that people are moving to the 21st centuary!

The goons controlling the signs on the M6 and the driver of HA logo'd car - tonight they dropped the speed to 40 to allow a "slow vehicle" to escape from one of the refuges. Not wanting any bonus points on my license I slowed to 40, as I passed the refuge lane one was shut and the "slow vehicle" - a HA Skoda Octavia RS estate nearly smacked me up the a***, swerved into the next lane then slammed across in front of me (I had moved out the next lane as the one I had been in was shut) nearly taking my front-end off as he broke and swerved to avoid the truck that hadn't moved out....
Sadly no card in the camera - I'd forgot to put it back after a very pleasant drive at the weekend Rob Smith
