I respect your job, but come on guys, must you be so un-pro?

Ray - you are impossibly polite

There is a question I have always wanted to ask you - do you have a luxury yacht? I am just interested nothing more.

OP, it sounds like you've found your answer.

FWIW, I like the advice someone gave on PH awhile back: Try not to do anything that forces someone else to brake or change direction unnecessarily.

Whether it should piss someone off to drive at 50 isn't the point. The point is that it does piss them off.

Well done OP, a good driver always considers not just themselves, but what everyone else around them is doing.


Besides, it sounds like you're more relaxed now with the new approach, and that can' be a bad thing.

Interesting discussion folks.

Probably worth a new thread but would HGV drivers support a minimum speed on motorways of 60mph for cars?

No idea how it could be enforced (I'd often dream of being able to do 60mph) but it does seem that it would smooth motorway flow for all.

fk no, cos at least at 50 I can pass the buggers, 60 on most car speedos is about 56mph on mine.

Thank you!

But we're all here for a good reason, to help and engage with each other, right? I see no point in being an annoying keyboard terrorist as some do - gets you nowhere.

Whereas a bit of civility and understanding renders friendship, help and useful results I have found. Or I wouldn't still be here in my God-knows-how-many'th-year...


Anyway, to answer your question - no, I have never, do not currently, and I would say definitely ever own anything approaching a luxury-yacht, as nice as an idea that it sounds! I guess the closest I have come was when I bought a box of luxury biscuits from M&S for Christmas?!

Ray Luxury-Yacht is just a silly name from an old Monty Python sketch, is all.



Laters!
