The Reliant V6 Scimitar (choice of Princess Anne) was built near Tamworth, it had Wolferace wheels and so did a lot of the locals ....

drivers who make a wrong turn and then reverse back out without looking !

He claimed the mirror design is so bad you can't see properly out of the back :roll:

At least his insurance have admitted liability but it's the hassle of losing the car off the road for repairs :sad:

Bus drivers.

Clueless idiots who have to be told PSV regs by a taxi/PH driver.

Weather forecasters.

Two days ago they said today it would be heavy rain, high winds and possible flooding.

Today it has been utterly glorious and this evening is like an Indian summer. :D

I would love to be in India at the mo, although they do have major problems.

Normally it's an absolute basket case of a country, but blimey I miss it.

18-30 year old people not getting vaccinated as they are unsure what's in the vaccines. :sad: :sad: :sad: :sad:

Is this the same age group that spends weekends either popping pills in their mouths, sniffing powder up their noses, or injecting substances in their arms? #-o

we have had a right year of it at the moment we have a road shut for 6 months because network rail are working on a nearby tunnel and don't want "live loading" on the structure even though it doesn't actually go under the road and another road that has been closed for 3 months and was due to reopen this week but low and behold they are nowhere near finished as they go home at 2 pm every day :roll:
