Things I don't like

Exactly mate!!! Never forgive action on that one. A tiiiiiny bit of consideration for your co-workers please!

Seriously, one day I'm going to have a really spicy curry the night before and go and stand by his desk and squeeze out a trouser cough and waft it at him.
Only fair...

Bloody hell, early days yet mate! Wait until they hit problems!!!

(hope they don't hit problems!)
I'm hopeless at waiting:grimacing:

He's the kind of bloke not to ring up with a problem tbf. Will only ring when it's completed though if I don't call him first!!

Ben, I FULLY understand. I'm bad enough if the car is away for a couple of days for a bit of bodywork!

@///M number 4. :excited:

Trying to drive a coach in London is bad enough without facing pricks in cars who genuinely think 13m long vehicles can stay in white lines made for vehicles 10m shorter! Fuck sake give me some room you absolute tossers....

Oh and more specifically, Addison Lee drivers. :chris2:

View attachment 114483 ...

Like I'd do such a thing..

Day has only just started, sat in the West End until 10pm...fingers crossed no motorway closures on the way back...I HATE night motorway closures. Don't get me wrong, I understand why and I'm all for it, but at least make it clear for me so I can make a contingency plan for getting somewhere close to home at a reasonable hour tomorrow morning....

bloody hell..you Scottish boys dont mess about,do you??

I've actually used brake fluid on an old manager's car before, works just as well. Couldn't have happened to a nicer guy, believe me.
 
cyclists!!:chris2:

Jesus, don't get me started. I encounter at least 3 of the fuckwits every morning on the way to work. The council spent thousands putting a cycle path along the main road, yet these dicks still insist on cycling along a busy a-road at rush hour. I have no idea how on earth you can have no driving license and no experience of road usage but can still perfectly legally get on a bike and ride along an a-road. WTF. Never mind the fact they have no insurance, so if they clip your car whilst cutting through traffic, you have no recourse. Utter pricks, each and every one. They should at least have to sit the CBT. God knows I pay enough to use the utterly shit roads in this country.

had a chat with my work mate today about them..she almost killed one of them this morning..exactly what you said..he should have been on a cycle path but he thought riding on a pavement was a better idea..she had a right go at him and then her fella..just bloody use them cycle paths when possible and also,they should be forced to take some kind of test to be able to use public roads...

Oh it's so bad. Aside from the "I'm in my car so I can be a world class c u next Tuesday" mentality, there's an absolute lack of basic understanding of the rules.

Pisses me off that I have to back out of things all the time too. I know I've got right of way but you're just gonna drive through me aren't you? I value my car more than you...

Kid you not, once had a girl go absolutely nuts at me because she thought her stop sign was for me.

It's just shocking.

comical and sad at the same time..some people dont even know the basics..think most of the new drivers get their licence regardless their skill and knowledge..

When I first started driving these big lumps of metal in London I'd pretty much let everyone go as I was petrified of hitting someone...didn't take me long to realise how much of a free for all it is and that you've got to just be brave and aim for the gap or you'll get nowhere..

I hate cutting people up, it's wrong and the complete opposite of what I was taught. But you literally have no choice in London. I've driven my own car here once and hated every second, at least in this thing I actually have a bit of weight and can carry on through to the point where idiots realise they probably should stop pushing across because they'll end up underneath me!!!

I don't particularly want to drive a coach in London, I do it because it's my job..

P.S completely agree with point 5 too!!!!!!!!!!!

Can you imagine how I feel in the Lotus?

It's pretty scary in a small lump of plastic!

Someone who knows how to drive my love.
