Is it the done thing to drive on the opposite side of the road for a hundred so metres on a stretch you wouldn't even think about overtaking on (national speed limit), just because theres a bit of mud on the road and theres slightly less on that side? The before and after suggested that they weren't a competent driver....

"I cut my energy bill by ditching kettle for £40 device that boils water for a brew in 30 seconds" Aka buy this product if you are too stupid to understand that only boiling the amount of water you need saves money. Love how they cannot calculate the cost saving with "claims". Do a journalism degree, end up producing this shite.

Again today joining the a46, idiot doing sub 40 AND drives to the very end of the slip road - do they know that other drivers dont have to give way? I assume they think they can just drive straight onto the dual carriageway/motorway

Double the points if they immediately speed up to 70mph once they are in their lane.

Saw an absolute belter of clueless driving. A50 somewhere near Uttox/Derby I think. Tractor. Lorry wanting to pull out to overtake and has indicated to show that they are. For several seconds. Woman in a mini ignores this and decides to pull alongside and then sit in the blind spot...... Me spotting what is probably going to happen next I drop way back. Luckily there wasnt an accident, lorry did attempt to come out and just saw the car in time. When I went past her, she looked like she was oblivious as to what was going on around her.

How do you move away from the Magaocracy in the GOP? I don't think it will be straight forward. There are still a few of the maga crowd who will throw their hat into the ring - if Trump doesn't stand - will he have a proxy from one of those. He may be well past his sell by date by that point, but he will still appeal to his maga fanbase. My view, the only GOP member who would win a presidential election with ease is Brian Kemp. If he gets in in 2028 its a shoe in. He didnt put himself forward for 2024, perhaps he views his best chance is in 2028.

Some motorbike went up the left side of my car at a roundabout - almost scraping it. So I rammed the cnt off his bike to teach him a lesson. Probably ought to have just tailgated him, but then I would have to post it on Foxestalk and defend the indefensible. 🤷♂️

We have no kitchen ceiling at the moment due to ongoing works and theres going to be all sorts in and out of the areas around the joists. Theres me frying burgers and screaming like a little girl when a massive f.cker abseils down next to me. We get loads in our house (and outside on the windows including egg sacs). I do not know where they come from or why they like us.

Slightly off topic as its not Leicester.... I had a one hour stop over in Sheffied due to train times. If you are in the same situation, its worth a brisk 5 minute walk to the Rutland Arms.

Cyclists being able to hear my engine and move out of the way when I try and ram them. Need to buy an electric.

I know this is a pubs thread but I've always wanted to try out little tokyo but keep forgetting - is it any good. Back on topic for pubs (and on B Gate) the black horse is always good one for a couple before heading to efes.

These are a pet hate of mine, I drive on the A46 every day and joining it can be a nightmare due to these pratts. What makes it even more infuriating is that many of them, once they have joined and caused carnage, they will quickly accelerate to 60mph+ Its like they think they can only go at the speed once they have joined the carriageway. Some seem to think that traffic already on the carriage way have to give way to them joining. As for those who stop and indicate, I have moaned enough on here. Top tip, go slower then them and give yourself some extra room. I've even slowed to a stop and watched a really bad near miss.

I have a concern with the sensors that detect another car in your blind spot (you will see wing mirrors that light up). What happens if they don't come on? Is the driver still going to look over their shoulder?

I once drunkenly stumbled into the back of a taxi in Italy. The driver said, "It's a fine if you're sick on my seats." I said, "Thanks, mate," and immediately threw up everywhere

Welcome to my club.

Queueing at the bar in pubs is akin to queueing in one lane for 3/4 mile where the signs say "use both lanes when queueing" and "merge in turn". Yes I will drive to the front. Yes I will swerve around your car when you pull out to try and stop me. Yes I will laugh as you angrily stick your finger up because I just nipped in front of you at the very front. Learn to read and apply common sense...🤷♂️

When there is congestion you are allowed to use any lane. Highways code. Thus if there are vehicles in both lanes doing sub 70mph, I am free to flick the vs when I pass on the left.

To the man who glared at me for flashing him (60mph middle lane, empty outside lane, no intention of moving) To the woman who glared at me for flashing [my lights at] her (sat in the middle of an empty road with traffic stacking up behind her) All the others who glared at me when I tootled past at 70mph on the left whilst flicking the vs. KEEP LEFT. Oh and the lorry driver who was up the arse of a middle lane hogger and flashing them when in a 50mph section.🤝 Just to explain how bad this problem is, the car in question with the lorry decided to go into the right hand lane.... revoke their licence!!!!!

Both!!! Parents have always lived in LFE and so did i growing up. Cannot believe how bad the flies are. Used to be bad down packer avenue but its gone past the m1 bridge to the other part. How long until it impacts upon Kirby....

Extending Vestergaards contract until 2027 when he is 35 and on his current wages? GENIUS!!!!! And all of those players whose contracts ran out and left on a free (how much ££££ did we lose), or players we cant sell/loan out as we are paying them too much.... whose caused the pinch?
-
Went through LFE today, all gone!!!!!

I drop one kid off in Kirby and one in LFE each morning and pick them up in the evening. I hit both sets of traffic 😭. Luckily the kirby one hasnt been too bad in the morning. In the evening i avoid the kirby one by going the back way through Ratby. Today I spent 10 minutes in Ratby - MORE ROADWORKS!!!
-
LFE at the minute. Gridlock both ways on the A47 due to roadworks at both ends of the village.
