Polite (but probably pointless) request

I am not the Chosen One. I'm a very naughty boy (according to panda boy).

Couldn't agree with you more, which is why i'm not getting particularly het up about speed bumps in the slightest.

Have you read my original post?

Doesn't seem to be a pre-requisite on edf Panda. Forum fashion is to launch straight in guns blaring - GERRRRRRRRROONNNIMMMMMOOOOOOO! Am quite getting used to it :)

Apparently so Voyageur, but it is a very tiresome quality...

I try not to post on here for that very reason, but after 2 near misses in the space of 2 minutes this week I felt compelled to try and bring it up as a local issue.

Will know better in future and keep my trap shut.

Or get myself a tank...

PB, people make all sorts of polite (and not so polite) requests on EDF - I nearly didn't read this thread beacuse I thought it might be about asking people to confine their use of tomato sauce to their chips, or about not being able to buy things out of the charity shop window, or even asking people to drive more sensibly

why don't you just re-post on the main drag with a title that alludes to driving down the middle of ED roads to straddle the speed bumps? also, why the humility i.e. 'proabbly pointless request'?

With any luck, Admin (Peace be on him/her) will feel compassion for you and your post and let it be, you will stir up loads of EDF argy-bargy about the right to drive any damn way they please, whether it's on a fire-breathing unicorn, a 4X4, or just a 10-year old Corsa, and you might even have influenced a few people into driving on their side of the road...

ah, so you already did

but beware the wrath of Huguenot - he doesn't like anyone criticising the Council! You will be tarred forevermore as a cynic!

[panda boy]

civilservant, thnak you so much for your reasoned response.

Various points taken on board, including the title of my original thread and the humilty!

I've had a chat with the all seeing and knowing Admin and all appears to be well...

And if anyone would like to defend the councils action on the ED Grove / Rye junction i'd love to hear it. I know theres an ongoing post about it so will not mention it here.

Thanks again

Dickheads who stop to allow someone through. EVEN THOUGH the road is wide enough for two cars. Do they think they are driving tanks or is ir because they have to straddle the hump

[panda boy]

I agree
