By 27, he had conquered all lands before him. At 27, I was still living at home. Many similarities. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

foreveryoung Posted February 3, 2022 Share Posted February 3, 2022 Got caught for speeding again, 3 points 6 months ago from a van in roadworks 44 in a 40 dodgy. Now I saw some random women with a handheld speed camera in a Gloucester village I was cutting through to miss traffic, thought she may be a community do gooder, but looks like it was ole bill 48 in 30 this time, which seems a little high,. as I am not a speed demon by any means, (had my fun when younger) but when you do 40k miles a year it's hard not to get caught, especially since lately they are trying there best to raise some revenue, cameras everywhere I go. Might contest this last one, just seems very random, especially the speed, but I guess wheres my proof. 20 years previous without a point on my license, an I've not changed my driving, just seems a bit dodgy.

Popular Post Chindie Posted February 4, 2022 VT Supporter Popular Post Share Posted February 4, 2022 Use a new, to me, system at work. It has a front page with instructions on what to do with it on it. I follow the instructions. The final instruction says, to paraphrase, when you're finished press this button. I finish. I press the button. ... Email sent to entire team by person that heads up this system 'Someone has broken it. Can I remind you not to press the button'. ... Why the **** have an instruction to press the button if you're not supposed to press it? 2 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One was so close it was like I was towing him! Citroen Picasso driving skunkpussy! THIS! I’ve never driven in the UK so I don’t know how common it is there but it’s absolutely endemic here. Most drivers get right up you to the point of danger, both my parents say that the standard of driving is so bad here comparatively that most drivers wouldn’t get a UK license…not sure how much hyperbole that is but I can’t say it would surprise me. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
