Having said that, the Traffic Officers are always around that stretch of the road - seems to be one in each direction always sweeping the area. There are many accidents on that road - I reckon they must be the busiest ones in the country.Comment

Torn over standing to the loon, or moving to a nice detached, but in an area not so nice. (Real nice big house at a bargain price, but, in a mass housing estate - bleurgh!)
Guy psising on my shoes at work
A client (soon to be boss) who calls me in the evenings for random chats
Having to go permie in the depressing current contract climate
On the plus side, had a very foxy estate agent come round tonight - phwoar, is all I can say. That nice, husky voice really hooked me into working with her....Comment

I had one of these around 18 months ago.
On the M25, heading home from the client's, going past this 18 wheel trailer in the centre lane. While going past him, he signalled to go right, and did so, without checking his (what i found out later to be) his far side mirror (dutch trailer), and clipped me. Went flying across the right lane, into the central reservation, car went on for 80-90 yards scraping against the divider.
I just remember thinking **** what a day to die (This after squeezing my egg roll a bit to hard during breakfast and getting yolk all over my trousers earlier in the day).
Thankfully no injuries.. if there was another vehicle in the right lane i would have been well and truly f*ked.
Still drive to work though )Comment

Originally posted by Clippy View PostI'd say those trousers were well and truly ruined what with egg on the front and 'chocolate' in the back!
On the plus side, no need to pack a hamper next time you go for a picnic.Feist - 1234. One camera, one take, no editing. Superb. How they did it

Seems crazy to me, but maybe it's more efficient in a "power before sail" kind of way assuming cars are more manoeuvrable than juggernauts.Comment
