Nice to see someone making use of something otherwise utterly useless.
:?: I wonder how many of the feckers they have to crush to get a tankerload? :lol:

    A single emo is so filled with emotion that the pressure is that high I reckon a single emo would fill 2 of those things.

    That being true and after asking the driver what it's used for (heating oil) we may well have found a viable renewable energy source :D

    You'll never guess what I seen today whilst riding, a rider in team GB skinsuit, on a road bike on a TT frame covered in graffiti.

    I saw a Somerfield lorry when I was out the other day, and had an overwhelming urge to chant 'You're not Somerfield any more' at it.

    Is that when they all sit around in a room trying to convince the other Emo's in the room that their sex life (or lack of) sucks more than the Emo next to them? :?

    I once saw what can only be described as a granny having sex in the back of a car, when I was out on my bike.

    (Hand up against the passenger window and everything).


    Not me, I hasten to add.

    Similar to you Rick except....
    I was out of the saddle going up hill and could see over a low(ish) hedge.... over the other side was a couple "at it". :o I was already breathing heavily (from the climb, from the climb) :roll:

    Pah! I saw granny giving an elderly gent a BJ. She glared at me as she popped her teeth back in.

    At the risk of lowering the tone I used to see tons of porno mags on the side of the road, presumably from truck drivers relieving the tedium of hours of lonely driving. Moved to Germany 13 years ago and never seen any here. Probably due to t'internet. Or maybe the Germans like to keep their porn.

    This thread was never going to end well was it! ha. I've not seen anything remotely exciting on my journey's yet. But there's still time :D

    Threads like this do have a tendancy to get lowered somewhat. Keeps it all good fun...

    Here's a dilemma though. You come across an abandoned jazz mag but find 2 pages stuck together. Do you open it up to see why, or leave it because you know why...?

    I've been told by a lorry driver that I really wouldn't believe the number of folk he sees knocking one out or having a fiddle with their partner whilst driving.
