    thought of you pepe when I saw a lorry driver just in front of me earlier. He was half in one lane at the roundabout, half in the next. It was one of those mega long double lorries but Ithink he needed a bit more practise because he managed to give the kerb a hefty clipping on his way onto the roundabout after the lights changed!

    Have to say it wasn't because I thought you were a rubbish lorry driver I hasten to add!!

    Hes obviously not a true professional.....we take up all three lanes. I got fed up with articulated trucks so now I drive a 40ft rigid ( only 4ft shorter that a trailer and it doesnt bend ) which is a challenge in central London........dont hit many things by accident:D

    ( just illegally parked cars, but sshhhh! )
    :D:D stay wonky :D:D

    ....one-way ticket to Portugal booked !
