    Joking? I'm not laughing. Neither is anyone else. I would. Let's get back to a proper upper house in place of stooges & cash-paying entrants and those who lack life's wisdom by dint of being under a sensible age, which I'll put at something around late-40s. Sounds good to me.

    :wink:


    I have this image if you cry-w*nking to the forbes rich-list... :P

    They are places I will never visit.
    Last place I came across it was my previous place of work.
    Small inconvenience in the scheme of things. :wink:
    If at all.
    None of the above should be taken seriously, and certainly not personally.

    I'd be happy to let them.

    However football replica tops would be excluded. As will trainers for wearing to Weatherspoons.

    It'd make much more sense to have cars (which are often single-occupancy) park driver's side to driver's side... I.e. facing alternate ways assuming they're all right-hand drive...
    Sometimes parts break. Sometimes you crash. Sometimes it’s your fault.

    1. Give everyone the day off.
    2. Make Jeremy Kyle the Minister of Justice.
    3. Make it illegal for retired people to go shopping at weekends. My local supermarket is rammed with old people shopping (and taking their effing time about it because they brought the "wrong glasses" or something). They have had ALL WEEK to do their shopping. Grrrrr....

    I would introduce drafting buses. These would be electric vehicles specifically aerodynamically designed to create a nice big area for effective drafting behind them. They would be sent down popular bike commuting routes at roughly 5-minute intervals at a steady 30mph. The would have sirens and flashing lights and uncontestable right of way over anything else. A camera on the front would be hooked to a screen covering the entire back of the vehicle so that the cyclists behind it can see what's coming up ahead and anticipate any likely braking (obviously with a symbol to ensure that it wasn't totally invisible so cyclists didn't cycle into the back of it). Laser guides pointed at the road behind would indicate neat positions so that as many cyclists as possible can fit into the drafting zone.

    Just hop on behind the first one that goes past, hop off when you get where you need to be!
