£200 or so a month (+ fuel) just to avoid having to "pop places" in your own car. Hope my retirement is that comfortable!0 -

I am a big fan of the wind up threads, let's keep this one going, but how can I not try and look out for drfm or dark matter or whatever name they using this week whenever I see someone driving like a tit. Great work people!0

I DO NOT DRIVE LIKE A TIT. I am a law abiding motorist. I pay for my petrol like anyone else, it is just the parking and the tollbridge I get for free.
Or the "troll bridge" before some smart alec pipes up and this IS MY thread. I don't mind if Joe Horner posts on here because he is genuinely interested in what I have to say but most of the others are quite not interested in what I have to say because they are not interested.0 -
