    Evening all, busy afternoon here getting stuff out the loft for car boot tommorrow (that was a bit warm I can tell ya!) Don't have great hopes for making oodles tomorrow as a lot of it is stuff left over from previously (we are actually getting short on new stuff to add) but hopefully I'll do ok.

    Had some complete twonk driving behind me earlier when I went out, driving really close behind me (and I was doing the speed limit) then when it came to roundabouts or crossing lanes on the aproaches, kept trying to cut me up from behind despite the fact i was clearly indicating. Large range of hand gestures exchanged - hope the prat gets a puncture :mad::mad::mad:

    Still, on the upside, NSD #4 today :j am tempted with some half price pillows from Debs as we desparatly need some new ones, will see how funds go tomorrow.

    I'll never understand idiots like that Kerri and they probably go through their entire lives without ever having an accident themselves or getting a fixed penalty for speeding, despite being complete numpties. It happened to me earlier this week, although the lady didn't do anything like that at roundabouts etc (in my experience it is normally something men do though!), just sat on my bumper for pretty much the entire journey:mad:. End of mini rant:rotfl:
    If you've nothing decent to say, perhaps you shouldn't say anything.

  • Rising, the tins of sweets were in Mr T and there was a good selection:D

    Ahhhh fab Red, thanks (did look at Mr A when I was there earlier but none) - there's a Mr T on the way to DPs (going tomorrow) so will stop off on the way!:D

    Ahhhh but you can guarantee that if one of us accidentally went over the speed limit once, we'd get done!

    The ones I hate are the ones that errrr *go very slow* (would rather put a naughty word in!) - around 40mph, and when you eventually manage to find a bit to get past and are doing 60mph, suddenly they're sitting right on the back of your car :mad: ....

    It was indeed a male driver - he made one very rude gesture which I interpereted as him telling me he has a very small 'winky' ..honestly I don't think his wife / gf who was sat next to him would be very pleased at him telling any random lady driver that :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:
