Watch out now, don't want to spend one of your 47 days per year of sunshine only drivin' around!

Tide? What's a tide? Man, it's 1000 miles to any ocean.

@erratic we can only wish for 47 days of sun! lol
@seany genetics dictated the hair cut :~)
@shags some drivers think they can shout abuse at people in convertibles and it so easy to flip the bird in the air in return. (the van driver shouted you black twat)

Yeah I probably would of retaliated with the same response then. When I go the city I usually find myself very frustrated with the ignorant pushy people. I've been known to hit the brakes on tailgaters, flip the bird when someone cuts me off, or scream past a person who obviously can't drive the speed limit, or signal when they change lanes. Currently my biggest pet peeve is people blowing through the crosswalk in front of my kids school while children/people are in the middle of crossing. That and speeding in a school zone. There has been a few children hit or almost hit at that crosswalk, yet the city/police won't do anything about it.

Middle lane hoggers over here annoy me the most, and the 40mph brigade. They do 40mph in a a 40mph, but also in a 60mph or 70mph and ammusingly in a 30mph too. Normally to be found in a Nissan Micra or Honda Jazz

I generally dislike Hummers and people who drive them. No offense to anyone here. They're big stupid purposeless cars that guzzle gas and make men with tic tac testicles feel big and strong. They drive them like idiots just because they can. Pretty much, I hate every single driver on the road except for myself. There, I said it. They are all mindless dolts who need to go back to driving shopping carts for a while longer before they get behind the wheel of a two thousand pound death machine.

Curious Carl - how much for a litre of petrol - especially with the Libyan thing - We're complaining about $4.00 a gallon of gas. I assume it's a bit pricier over there.

Another question - how far are you willing to drive to go kiting?



we all believe is called the expansion

at the moment we are looking at £1.35 unleaded and £1.42 Diesel a LITRE

so a rough translation.....
1 US gallon = 3.78541178 litres
Unleaded £5.11 a gallon $8.32
Diesel £5.37 a gallon $8.75

:(

i think we pay about 80% tax on our fuel or something ridiculous like that.
i can usually get to a good kiting spot within 150miles but usually only have to travel 25ish miles
