    The driver who completely lost his shite with me today

    The traffic leaving Southend today was utterly horrendous, but I suppose understandable in the lead up to Christmas, and I did as I always do leave six feet or so between me and the car in front, the fuckwit behind me started flashing his lights and sounding his horn , and then got out of his car and shouted almost incomprehensibly at me to move the car closer to the one in front

    Laughing at him only made his babbling worse, which only made me laugh more, I only hope that someone recorded his meltdown and posts it on YouTube so he can see what a twathead he was!

    I hope the car in front of you moved off and away while he was standing on the road shouting.
    Had something similar the other day -- I pulled out of a T junction onto a main straight road there was a driver about 1/2 a mile back on the main rd when I pulled out. The knob overtook me cos I was in a slow vehicle which wouldn't have been a problem for either of us since the road ahead was clear ( on both sides) but as he/she passed they held their hand on the horn -- either they were just another knob or the horn had been stuck on the whole time. Knob is probably right.

    Leaving home in the dark this morning on the bike and the weather is mild and still

    Arriving at the town where I work as the light from the sun was just rising from the horizon as I came over the hill and in the distance I could hear a rooster crow. Magical

    When the young cute thing calls you "Pet" or "love" like your an old person needing help -- thats when reality hits home. (Goes in the other thread)

    Worse still, if you are in America and get called sir by a pretty girl.
    And you are in your late 20s. Definitely for the other thread. I should be over it by now.
    The above may be fact, or fiction, I may be serious, I may be jesting.
    I am not sure. You have no chance.

    Was going to say cokk ( couldn't get the right spelling through the swear filter) but that's usually reserved for people like you -- sorry getting a bit fishfishy there.

    Lol - can you really not spell cock correctly?! That's going to screw up my request for advice on control cocks for Tilley lamps........

    Edit - that's funny, BikeRadar is all prudish about one cock but a whole orgy of cocks is fine!

    Watched the Matilda musical again tonight and just seeing kids who are about 10-12 years old owning the stage in front of a packed audience in a full professional performance cheers me up no end (as does Tim Minchin's music and lyrics).

    Saw that last year at the Cambridge theater in London. your absolutely right -- those kids had amazing talent and no fear whatsoever.

    popping into the local Coop and finding some rather nice mozzarella at 1/2 price. Combining that with tomatoes freshly picked from my greenhouse, yes on Christmas Eve, to have a rather splendid light luncheon.
