  1. The average person doesn't understand how little time you save by speeding or overtaking traffic. Only on really long journeys do you save significant time making it worth it. Even a 100 mile journey on the motorway driving at 80mph instead of 70mph only saves you 10 minutes. Then factor in you can use up to 25% more fuel going that extra 10mph faster and it's just not worth it.
  2. With Motability you don't get a car for free. They take away the mobility part of your PIP monthly payment which is around £300 p/m if you get the full amount. I know this because I've been looking at a motability car for my mum soon. Even with that £300 p/m you're only talking about a new Kia Picanto or medium hatchback. Any bigger or better cars and you have to pay an extra fee on top for the 3 year term. However you do also get all your tax, MOT, servicing and insurance sorted for you on top which makes it a good deal.
  3. Even if you already have right of way, just the act of being courteous warrants a small signal of appreciation IMO. I always put a hand up.
  4. I'm a double digit weekend hacker and even I know you can't trample grass down around your ball. Doesn't stop me doing it from time to time if the golfing gods start taking the piss though! The one I see the most is the classic misuse of the local rule for stroke and distance off the tee to speed up play. Guy hits into thick rough under some trees. "you gonna hit a provisional just in case?" "Nah I saw where it went. I'll just drop one if I can't find it". Continues to look for and not find his ball and so drops another ball and takes his next shot for 3. I however don't want to get too pissy and tell him it should be 4 not 3. Especially as he plays off 28 and isn't gonna win any way.
  5. I used to really like him and watch his YouTube channel until he had that orange **** on.
  6. Herbert currently -8 after 12 holes and has a 3 shot lead SEVEN 3s and two 2s so far and went out in 28. Ridiculous. Sub 60 round very possible.
  7. Similar with Anne Widdicome. Horrible thing to happen to someone that I wouldn't wish on any one. That doesn't mean I'll forget her horrendous views on gay people and pregnant prisoners though.
  8. It's shite and Hoddle is a ****.
  9. Goodnight all. Time for bed.
  10. **** sake this is suicide.
  11. Tommy going very defensive to close off passing lanes. Bellers dropping into a central 3. It will invite them to cross the ball in loads though.
  12. We need this break to regroup. Have to get out of defence and up the pitch a bit more.
  13. Infantino takes a couple for Argentina. Shearer gets his boots on.
  14. Spence has been great down that left.
  15. I've even heard that some people have been able to wait until the car is delivered and rhe contract starts, then phone the finance company up and negotiate even lower monthly payments for longer 3-4 year terms.
  16. Love that Sevilla shirt. Simple but classy.
  17. It's a bit like saying I'll never listen to a Michael Jackson song ever again. I can separate the man from the car.
  18. Spain completely dominated the French midfield due to their extra man and Deschamps being a clueless tactician. They gave the Spanish central midfielders all the time in the world on the ball and let them keep winning it back too easily. That wouldn't happen with England and Tuchel. Anderson, Rice and Bellingham would pose much more of a problem for Spain to play through. Any way, one game at a time. We've got to beat the Argies first.
  19. Indeed. Tesla are currently leasing brand new Model 3s via their website for as little as £225 p/m over 2 years.
  20. I hate when players start finger wagging in protest at a decision. Really irritating and disrespectful. If I was a ref I'd take personal offence at that and make me much more likely to book them.
  21. Superb goal.
  22. Mine stopped working the other day because I left it in the car for a few minutes in mid-afternoon when the temp got up to 34C. Took it out to use the camera and it had an overheating message on the screen. It was bloody hot to touch too. Lesson - Don't leave your phone in the car when it's hot!
  23. I don't know what people are seeing in that Grimsby shirt. It's feckin awful. Like some 1960s wallpaper design.
  24. Both Bellingham and Tuchel can both be right. We didn't play our best and got through on sheer will and thanks to Bellingham's fantastic movement. But even Tuchel has to accept in those sorts of conditions mistakes will happen and playing nice football has to take a back seat to game management and intelligence. As far as the Spence penalty goes, yes he stuck his leg in front of the defender, but we've also seen plenty of those given and will continue to at all levels. I don't think VAR should have got involved. Certainly not after what Collina has had to say about re-refereeing incidents.
