...-are really beginning to hack me off!


Not only do plenty of them jaywalk, but those using legal crossings... well they aren't exactly helping traffic flow are they?


Then I find out that (who else!) Ken Livingstone wants more of us to walk everywhere - this is just soooo typical of his politically correct efforts to prevent motorists from getting where we want to, when we want to, with the minimum of fuss


Surely these pedestrians can see that if they got out of our way, we would get to where we want to quicker and then be out of their way???

I know what you mean! Bastards! Last night I went to the corner shop to pick up some milk. It should have only taken a couple of minutes as the shop is a block away from my house but:


First I had to walk 2 blocks to where my car was parked. It could have been on the pavement outside my house but apparently the pavement is ?reserved? for ?pedestrians?.


Anyway I then had to drive around the one way system to the shop but do you think I could park? Could I fuck! There is plenty of space on the road outside the shop but you can?t park their because it is something called a ?bus stop?. Believe me I?ve tried. Apparently when pedestrians aren?t j-walking or clogging up the pavements they travel around on theses ?bus? things sweating and rubbing their shoulders up against each other. It?s filthy I tell you.


So I had to drive half a mile up lordship lane before I found somewhere to park and walk for ten minutes to the shop!


I?m not even going to start on my trip home. Let?s just say it made Odysseus?s famed journey seem like an easyjet flight to Athens!

Yeah, and then they start sweating, and use up valuable water resources to re-hydrate themselves! Selfish gits!

    • Hi  My internet connection has dropped out for several hours a couple of times since Sunday (15th Feb). I’m with Sky and the engineer has been and replaced the connection and then booked an Openreach engineer who checked the line but at the time it was working. He said there had been several issues in our road (Oakhurst Grove) but was now fixed but this morning I’ve woken up to no internet again. Just wondered if anyone else is having the same problems. 
    • Green Party policy on driver behaviour: Default 20mph Speed Limits: The party supports making 20 mph the default speed limit in all residential areas. 40mph Speed Limits: Proposing a default 40 mph speed limit in non-residential areas, excluding major roads. Low Traffic Neighbourhoods (LTNs): Promoting the expansion of LTNs to reduce "rat-running" in residential areas. Ending Internal Combustion Engine Sales: A target to end the sale of new petrol and diesel vehicles by 2030. Environmental Charging: Implementing a Carbon Tax on fossil fuels to increase the cost of petrol and diesel, incentivizing a shift to electric vehicles or public transport. Prioritizing Active Travel: Shifting funding from road building to walking, cycling, and public transport infrastructure, aiming for 50% of trips in towns and cities to be made by these methods by 2030. Improved Driver Training: Supporting "eco-driving" techniques to reduce emissions and fuel usage.  Some of which is good, some unrealistic, and on driver behaviour doesn't go far enough. Difficult to summarise the Lib Dems position as it is a bit wishy washy wanting to appeal to both the eco warrior and the NIMBY.  Sadly I know people who are both! Labour (nationally) said that local measures are a local issue, which was quite sensible, after Sunak;s we are going to end the war on motorists last stand, but don't like upsetting hard working motorists for example chickening out on fuel duty rises.
