Horse boxes doing 30mph in a NS limit zone, and the slow driver behind it too afraid to overtake it, causing long tailbacks.
If the equestrian type can afford over £100K for a flash horse box, why can’t they afford a few ratchet straps to secure the horse in the back so they can drive a bit faster.   :)  ::)

Pissed cackling women in a pub with their feral kids running all over the place at the easter weekend! WTF is that all about? Three of us locals mentioned to them politely, and all we got back was abuse!! FFS..... >:( >:( >:( >:(

When I'm following something that's travelling at, say, 40 in a 50, and I don't feel comfortable overtaking, I drop back from it to leave room for people to overtake me and then the vehicle in front of me.
But the tossers that inhabit the road these days don't understand that, and try to push me back towards the vehicle in front.

What you do is the polite and sensible thing to do.  :y  I was way back in the queue so no chance of me going for it, although my Mrs did say ‘don’t you dare’ when I inched out a couple of times.  ;D

It wasn't mine. Just because someone uses a different word for something doesn't automatically make that word wrong.

Would you correct your wife if she had a ship visit and called the deckhead the ceiling or the sole the floor, forward the front and the stern the back, port left and starboard right?

Make burgers from the pointless creatures.

Our local riding centre has taken to riding the horses through the housing estate, presumably because the fields are wet.  So every road is now like a dirty farm track, and if your do meet one, due to all the traffic calming, you have no chance to get by.

No, but I read that you can put fresh manure in the bottom of your planter and as it rots it generates warmth which stimulates growth and you get nice big veggies.  :y

Tomato : a ripened flower ovary that contains seeds. AKA a fruit
Cucumbers are fruit too

Steaks, pork chops, bacon etc are NOT fruit and are OK to eat  ;D
