What's with all the font changes? Were you expecting 9 pages about parking bays then? 

 

Sorry to disappoint.

The original topic is still running though. Just a few of us got sidetracked

Mmmm that reminds me. I was on M1 other day in mini. I was in middle lane and all I saw shooting down the slip road and bombing out crossing all the lanes to get on the outside lane straight away was a Audi R8 and omg the noise. ******* me it sounded amazing

[HarrysMini]

Yeah, in a minute someone will mention parking bays again and we'll be back on track, until it goes off track again

I went to Aldi yesterday and there was only one space left. A chrysler voyager attempted it but couldn't fit so parked on the cross hatchings beside one of the end spaces blinding others to the corner beyond him.

 

I ended up parking where the voyager had attempted and no wonder he couldn't fit. the car to the left had parked right on the line and the car to the right had done the same. I had to squeeze out of my car and i only drive 106!

Yeah hate people who can't park straight in their lines. Again I think it's lazy people who can't even be bothered to straighten up which takes an extra 10 seconds of their shopping trip

I'm a right miserable git when driving I'm only 22. Don't think I've ever gone out without moaning about either someone's parking or driving etc

Chavs in parking spaces get on my nerves, when they leave behind a massive dirty pile of McDonalds wrappers and c**p just dumped on the ground. I have never understood how people can just throw cans/litter on the ground to blow about. Would love to catch them one day, follow them home and then pack the whole lot up their tailpipes.

Sometimes it's necessary to bring a thread back in line, but as far as I'm aware there's nothing in the rules that says that we have to ensure that every thread has stays rigidly on topic either. Besides, this is in the off topic banter section and people seem to be enjoying a good rant and debate about various topics here (including the original one), so I really don't see there to be a problem.


Now more importantly........... What about those "middle lane hoggers" on the motorway then???

They don't think they're doing nothing. They're "hangin' wid der bluds man". Another of my gripes - white kids talking like black kids from the Bronx.

Very true. Chav doesn't just describe teenagers. It's a whole breed!
