7rew 0 Posted March 21, 2007 Your not allowed behind the wheel of a car if you can''t use indicatorscorrectly. Doing it on a roundabout is a major fault doing it onthe test, elsewhere it a minor. One of the (many) resaons Ifailed my first test.Can I add to the drivers with people that don''t understand lanes onroundabouts. When driving in Yarmouth/Lowestoft I play a gamecalled roundabout rushin roulette (RRR) which is to approach aroundabout on the A12 dual carridgeway in the fast lane, and see if theguy in the slow lane drifts across so as to try and push you into thecentral island. It happens about half the time. NB make sure you havegood breaks.come to think of it Manchester Bus Drivers would be another category,on average 2 try to kill me every day (my fault for cycling up oxfordroad I expect).

Mr Whiz 0 Posted March 22, 2007 * Agreeing with the motorist complaints, so many idiots on the road but my main annoyance (through no fault of their own mind you) - Tractors, so very slow and what was a nice cruise to work turns into a manic dash because you spent ten minutes following a tractor* Sunday league footballers who take the game too seriously and turn it into a battlezone. Whilst the sport isnt a fairy sport is there really any need to attempt to ruin my life by jumping in two footed at knee height jus cos i made u look foolish a few times.* People who cant seem to understand what an opinion actually is and spend hours arguing that your opinion is wrong* Compensation culture - just when you think that they cant get any worse you hear of another silly case story, next they will cancel any form of activity involving anythin just in case someone gets hurt and decides to sueWould have added british weather but that would make me sound like a very old man which i certainly am not Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Chunky Norwich 0 Posted March 22, 2007 Someone already beat me to people not indicating as they come off roundabouts so I''ll just stick pikeys in there instead. I''d also say crap, mind-numbing telly like Big Brother and X-Factor but the really sad thing is that soooo many people in this country genuinely love them. And spend money ringing in! If you''re stupid enough to ring an 0900 number to vote for an idiot you''ve never met in your life, then you deserved to be fleeced every now and again.

macdougalls perm 0 Posted March 23, 2007 I would have to say, Mr Whiz, that I think that the British weather is one of the best thing about these islands. We still get seasons, it doesn''t get ridiculously hot in the summer or ridiculously cold in the winter and (despite the bullshit* proffered by various water authorities) we get enough rainfall to ensure that the land stays ''green and pleasant'' (at the moment anyway - not wishing to start another global warming ''controversy''[:)]). I personally think it would be completely crap and mind numbingly boring to live in a country which only had one ''season'' - either really hot and dry with the occasional monsoon or really freezing cold with picturesque snow which would become a really tiresome hindrance if we got it on a permanent basis. I think we are extremely lucky to live in such a temperate and seasonally varied climate. I love the arrival of Autumn and the contrast as Winter begins to give way to Spring. I have spend some quite long periods of time overseas and I (personally) missed this seasonal contrast greatly. *And by bullshit, I mean that a substantial proportion of the water shortages that we hear about is down to the greed and stinginess of corporate, privatised companies and their reluctance to invest properly in up to date and efficient piping networks.

Tumbleweed 106 Posted March 26, 2007 After Saturday I''ve got some more for Room 101. They all start with the word Steve and rhyme with Sharon.

bigbear 0 Posted March 27, 2007 1. Old people. Do we really need them? They think it is their given right to mow people down in their mobility carts. Walk very slowly in front of you, and then stop dead for no reason, causing you to jump out of the way, or stop yourself, their driving is just plain dangerous, they don''t get most modern things, and refuse to embrace change. They tell everyone how old they are and whats wrong with them, and what illnesses their friends have got, and who died recently, they are generally miserable and smell badly. Some of them are the most racist people you could ever meet, but they get away with it because they are old and thats the way they were brought up.2 & 3. I think I over spent in the 1st one.Sorry to the older people who don''t stink, don''t use a mobilty cart, walk at a good speed, drive well, like modern things, embrace change, are quite happy with the world, don''t care how old they are and don''t tell anyone about it, not rascist.

[:)]Personally I''m glad to be beyond the septic skinned years of youth...where greasy hair hangs lank and infected dandruff is "cool". The having to apologise to our parents for the bedsheet hurriedly put in the washing machine...and pretending to have a girlfriend rather than admit you''re scared of the opposite sex. Trying to look trendy in fashions first created by your parents 30 years prior...when originality really was still possible. Smelling like a horses backside as the testosterone finally begins to surge....and trying to grow whiskers that won''t blow away in a stiff breeze. Gathering in groups down the pub because you''re scared to be out alone...and telling tales of imaginary fights and how many push ups you can do with one hand behind your back. Being sick after drinking two pints of cider and claiming you''d had a bottle of vodka before you came out. Oh...and thinking you know what''s best for the world while still living at home with mummy and daddy.Yep...it''s great to be someone no-one listens to isn''t it?
