When I get into gaps like that, I make a point of letting someone else in front of me just to piss them off a bit more laugh
Yep, I'm with you on that one! It's like a reverse karma thing ... turning their negative behaviour into a positive for someone else.
Merge-in-turns are good for that type of thing. If I notice the car behind me constantly closing any sort of gap I'll just let a couple more cars go in front of me.
For added effect wind down your window and wave them past, that way it's clear to the idiot gap closer that your not just dithering about smile

And then when they themselves try to overtake you........ Close the gap tongue out

The use of obvs.

Men with ponytails or man buns. Gareth Bale as an example.
Obvs all men should have short back and sides and tuck their shirts in too.
Only black socks with a small logo are permitted too.
My mates son had one of those man bun things. I said 'In a few years time you're gonna regret that when the photos get dragged up.' hehe And we thought 70's haircuts were bad....

Mechanophilia is nothing to be ashamed of. I'm not.
Is that a line from an Adam and the Ants song?

Next time make a note of the number plate and report it to the council for fly tipping.

Back to my post and as I said I understand the need for retailers to be ahead of the curve but festive cups in November are a bit like council estate fairy lights being on already. rolleyes
Don't be such a fanny. Go and pick up their rubbish and push it back though the open window. Extra PBD points if they subsequently get out and stab you.
Would it not be littering?
The Police will do a grand total of nothing when you report someone for littering. Far too busy dealing with people who are offended by an internet post or stabbings.

Rubbish being dumped from a vehicle is fly tipping and the Council will pursue it to the ends of the Earth.



On my topic I used a Costa machine at my local Tesco petrol station the other day. Asked for a non-festive cup.

"No problem sir. They're kept out back".

The cashier got me a cup, I bought my coffee and left.

woohoo

I'm sure we've had this one already, but ....

Tw@ts that leave a gap in front of them in multi-lane traffic, then when they see you indicate to pull into it, slam their foot down on the GO pedal.

If you're not gonna let a brother in, don't leave a frigging gap! If you're too stupid to close said gap, accept your mistake and bloody let me in FFS.
Who do these people think they are!

Also people who when you pull out into a gap, without causing anyone to change their speed or direction, decide to speed UP and make it look like you have pulled a dodgy manoeuvre. Are these people looking for trouble

The other morning driving past Millbrook, it's dawn but you can see for quite a distance so I indicated and pulled out to overtake the car I was following as the road straightened. Clean, smooth overtake, pull in...... and HIGHBEAMS!!!!

Thanks knob.


Here's the view I had (except darker)

I live in Marston so pass on a daily basis. Amazes me the amount of people too timid to overtake on that dead straight road.

I'd prefer one that wasn't 'kept out back', have visions of piles of them outside the back door covered in dog piss and the like.

well, from a machine certainly. In the rankings of chain coffee shops for me it is closer to the top than some others!

They have forgotten their shopping list, and are being fed said list, item by item, by the very angry missus at home.
