Many more should take a leaf out of your book, Savvylad:D

I can't help it I'm afraid:o. (I shouldn't be putting in there all the time, but just can't help but do the right thing and sometimes it's a little being right!) :D:j:j

Oh, as for your main point, of taking a leaf out of my book (surely a figure of speech that Savvy won't understand?!??:D:D), you're absolutely correct - I couldn't agree more!:):):A

Following on from my last post (I know not money-saving related but this thread often goes off-topic), I've found (re-found) this interesting article:

http://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2013/05/130508131829.htm

(I'm not a child but I'm sure it also applies to me!)

I think this is why I appear, to me, to notice traffic light changes whilst virtually everyone else driving on the roads appears to be inattentive and slow to react. (Except if they're got passengers in the car, and then they are very attentive to them, engrossed in social conversation with them and oblivious to actual driving.)

I've also started to notice the following, after wondering about how I perceive things and how others might, and noticed that I'm left there, waiting behind them, when they are sitting behind a light that has gone to green, while they appear to wait for a split second before moving. I'd have been gone (assuming it was safe) if I was first in the line! Don't mess around, me.

Of course I slow down for the 30 mile an hour signs that lead off dual carriageways. Whilst everyone else sails through, speeding. I end up with them right up behind me - it's dangerous to comply with the road rules at times, but not my fault: I'm doing what the speed limit allows me to do and it's you that is not! Just so long as I'm aware (and acutely I am) that 'everyone else' will be behaving in this way and take steps to mitigate it, such as slowly braking from some time in advance.

And..ha ha!.. there is a money-saving connection that now gives a reason to this post (a reason it didn't possess, and I couldn't foresee it possessing, at the beginning). Slowly braking also, of course, helps save fuel (although in what way I can never remember:o:o, without looking up Martin again on this website) and slowing down, e.g. not driving above 60mph as if you do it puts your revs on over 3 and hence uses up more fuel, it course it also depends on the car, efficiency and its condition etc., also helps save fuel and hence cost less!

Why do people normally drive at 45mph in a 30mph zone (or 55mph in a 40) but, give them a 60mph speed limit - and they drive at 40mph!:rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::think:?!??!

LOVE THIS :T:T

Guess who I have sat behind me in the car telling me which colour the traffic lights are at and telling which speed I should be driving and when :rotfl:

I dread the day he understands the ins and outs of braking speeds and fuel consumption :eek:

OH has been fishing a lot and is bringing cod home for fun! Not small ones either

He could make a fortune selling any surplus to the local fishmonger!:D

I'll split your post into two, if I may, and respond to each part separately.

....Err....could it be your clever son at all??:D:D:D

Seriously, does he notice traffic lights earlier too? I thought it was just me - and I've only really started noticing it in the last few months after starting to think about it one day. Is there something in what I've been perceiving (namely that other drivers don't seem to be noticing certain things, i.e. changes in the colour illuminated on a traffic light thingy, as soon as I have noticed them)? Go on, it's changed!!:mad::mad::mad::(:(:rotfl::rotfl:;):cool:

The Deep is great, the local area also has a number of great attractions try the museums and the fish trail, all free and better than York.

Does Hull still pong like it used to a few years ago?

I actually rather like York. The Dungeons are my totes fave. I could go there again and again and again. Has anyone been at Halloween? Any good?

A lot of cod being caught around here so pushes the price down :cool: but good money for plaice and the odd sea bass that are hanging around. I sound like I know what I'm talking about.....just repeating what he says

_pale_ You've nothing to fear there I think! The day I understand abstract things like fuel consumption I'll actually have cottoned on to what appears to be common knowledge amongst the most part of the population!:):rotfl:(little bit of a laugh there, not a huge laugh, a little chuckle.)

Spotting those speed limit signs and telling you about the speed:eek:. He's a nightmare, but... just so correct!:rotfl::D:D
