I have never had an accident. I look in the rear mirror as often as i do out the front windscreen.

I look over my shoulder a lot, even though it does crick nowadays.

I indicate when there is someone to indicate too, but, only for a reason, usually hold my beer and watch this.

 

Oi ! i drive a BMW and it has two indicator settings, one slight touch for three polite blips and one aggressive one for " I will be coming off this slip road

and when i put my foot down You will look and feel stupid"

Ah, but there's information and there's how you act on it. The only thing a flashing front indicator tells you for sure is that the bulb is working, but it gives you a suggestion of the driver's likel

Pedestrians always have the right of way, not just when crossing side roads....... If one drops out of the sky and you hits him with your car, its your fault.

Absolutely, but as a pedestrian (or indeed any other type of road user) you also have to take self-preservation into account - ie regard all other road users as potential homicidal/suicidal maniacs.

Sean's a bit of a driver, he never answers his phone while on the road either.

Free to choose apart from the ones where the trust poked their nose in. Common eel. tope. Bass and sea bream. All restricted.


New for 2016 TAT are the main instigators for the demise of the u k bass charter boat industry, where they went screaming off to parliament and for the first time assisting so called angling gurus set up bass take bans with the e u using rubbish exaggerated info collected by ices from anglers, they must be very proud.

Upgrade, the door has been closed with regards to anglers being linked to the e u superstate and the failed c f p. So TAT will no longer need to pay monies to the EAA anymore as that org is no longer relevant to the u k . Goodbye to the europeon anglers alliance and pathetic restrictions from the e u.

Angling is better than politics, ban politics from angling.

Consumer of bass. where is the evidence that the u k bass stock need angling trust protection. Why won't you work with your peers instead of castigating them. They have the answer.

Recipie's for mullet stew more than welcomed.

Angling sanitation trust and kent and sussex sea anglers org delete's and blocks rsa's alternative opinion on their face book site. Although they claim to rep all.

new for 2014. where is the evidence that the south coast bream stock need the angling trust? Your campaign has no evidence. Why won't you work with your peers, the inshore under tens? As opposed to alienating them? Angling trust failed big time re bait digging, even fish legal attempted to intervene and failed, all for what, nothing.

Looks like the sea angling reps have been coerced by the ifca's to compose sea angling strategy's that the ifca's at some stage will look at drafting into legislation to manage the rsa, because they like wasting tax payers money. That's without asking the rsa btw. You know who you are..

Would be nice if there was three ,a center one which would indicate you were going ahead at roundabouts etc

Some cars are very badly designed and i guess tested in daylight ,some indicators are to near the headlamps so when they are on you hardly see the indicator and some are stupidly within the brake light which when braking is brighter than the indicator

One never goes straight on at a roundabout Chesters (well, not intentionally!) one always exits the roundabout to the left!

Eating wild caught fish is good for my health, reduces food miles and keeps me fit trying to catch them........it's my choice to do it, not yours to stop me!

Youve not driven around frimley park hospital then (wink) 3 lanes ,if you get in the wrong one you get other drivers confused ,ones marked as a in lane to the hospital but if theres a car in it the sign is hidden.

Also if you had a middle indicator it would be doubly safer for pedestrians as you would know (if it was used ofcourse) the oncoming vehicle was going past the junction to your right not that it wasnt forgetting to indicate it was going right.

I would have mandatory times your lights came on as well ,heavy fines for not doing so (the old lighting up times) mandatory reflective gear for cyclists ,mandatory reflective gear for pedestrians on non pavemented roads as well

Believe NOTHING anyones says or writes unless you witness it yourself and even then your eyes can deceive you

None of this "the enemy of my enemy is my friend" crap it just means i have at least two enemies!

 

There is only one opinion i listen to ,its mine and its ALWAYS right even when its wrong

 

Its far easier to curse the darkness than light one candle

Old hat now mate....they've all been superceded by the @rseholes in Audis!
