Today a car drove past me with the sat nav stuck on the window of the back door 😕

Bloke riding a motorbike in boxer shorts. He had a leather jacket on though. Must not be too fond of his legs...

EDIT:

Price of a train ticket from Loughborough>Nottingham>Manchester Piccadilly>Preston is [i]cheaper[/i] than a ticket for Nottingham>Manchester Piccadilly>Preston. That is daft. I'm not complaining, but it makes no sense.

I'm not sure if you're joking or not?

A fruit sculpture that had pubes. Dancing sheep (to bob marley no less), and a victoria sponge with 10 layers.

Definitely a sat nav, it was only about 4" square.

You're not really supposed to look at the sat nav while driving - mine's on the dash but obscured by the steering wheel - I only need to to look at it when I'm entering a new destination, so its only the verbal commands that matter - placed on a rear door window its closer and easier to hear perhaps, leaving the pretty pretty pictures on the screen for the kiddywinks in the back.

Must be the same law that prohibits using a car stereo in a moving vehicle.

A couple of weeks back I was biking across town when a car coming the other way stopped dead in front of me just as the boot flung open. A skinny guy, wearing nothing but his pants, hands bound and gagged (but making a lot of noise) leapt out of the boot and legged it over a main road and across a park. Another guy jumped out from the passenger side (laughing) and chased after him.

There was no way he was going to catch him though. He went off like a greyhound.

Silliest thing I saw recently was someone trying to claim that using an iPod whilst cycling was the same as listening to a stereo in a car!

The same as every weekend, scores of idiots (mostly middle aged men having a mid-life crisis) on high powered motorbikes screaming along the A44 up into Wales (& back) every sunny weekend, overtaking everything in sight in the most stupid of places (saw 3 go by a lorry on a blind bend yesterday 😯 - ****ers) So far this year we have had one killed and one seriously injured. There will be more, there are every year! That's why I avoid cycling on the A44. All along the road are big yellow signs asking us to watch out for bikes! It's almost as though the bikers want to clear the A44 for their own use as a ****ing race track. It's making me more and more angry as the years go by and the death toll inevitably raises.

It doesn't bother me if the idiots want to kill themselves, but what does boil my pish is that they use the road as a racetrack, ignore all speed limits, put other peoples lives at risk and act like male chickens and then try to make all drivers feel bad for being in a car!*

* I appreciate that not all bikers are like this and that some are great, but I only notice the bad ones (and there are alot of car drivers who also act like this). I also appreciate that I'm not a saint.

I didn't realise Jesues worked in Aldi, I mean fair dos, a guy needs a day off now and then.

weirdest thing I've seen today is the young saturday girl in the cafe has had her hand pierced. Its in the muscle bit between thumb and forefinger. Now, squeeze that muscle - it hurts like faux. She must be hard as nails.

This morning I saw a German driving a beautiful open-top sports car - didn't recognise the make but had the graceful lines of a Morgan. At the rear he'd attached a very small caravan that he'd made by chopping a Citroen 2CV in half. Both were in glossy black. On the one hand, I admire his ingenuity and can see the thinking behind it - enjoying wind-in-your-hair motoring but being able to park up for the night overlooking a deserted beach. On the other hand, you might be driving a sublime motorcar but nevertheless you're still towing half a 2CV.
