Parky Posted November 17, 2018 Share Posted November 17, 2018 I have just bought a watch for 'charidee' originally it cost £15 I have just paid £30 for it secondhand. 5d536b35fdd3b208e53b1f22c7dd555e.jpg Does this make you laugh as well?Get a proper strap on that and from a couple of feet away it looks a bit like this xtriple, Brodders and Roobarb 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel I can invest £4 on this beauty! Never worn a watch on a Nato strap, don't even know how to fit one! Parky 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
richardmorris Posted November 17, 2018 Share Posted November 17, 2018 I’m just reading the Waitrose weekend paper thing, and there’s an article on what seems like a brilliant idea. A phone app that allows blind people to call the sighted that have the app for assistance. Eg whilst shopping, choosing a tin from a cupboard or finding something on the floor.BeMyEyes.

You started your post “ cyclists”. Then posted the link. Presumably you think all cyclists are the same? And all deserve to die? Would you have posted the same referencing women? Jews? Muslims?

Well I’m not in the chuckling mood this weekend. And people thinking that all cyclists are the same is a straw too many for the camel. Also, ha ha, yesterday I saw 17 cars drive through red lights. I counted naturally. One to enter a box junction blocking our path. Not one single bike though. myglaren 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DodgeRover Posted November 17, 2018 Share Posted November 17, 2018 Had to hand signal to stop a peleton of cyclists today who decided they wouldn't wait in the queue of drivers waiting to turn and would instead over take on the right On the other hand I witnessed motoring fuck wittery whilst waiting for a place to over take said peleton and a amg merc overtook from 2 cars back whilst rounding a blind bend. Obviously must have worked for the NSA or something with a live link to a satelite as it was the only way they could know they weren't going to hit an oncoming vehicle.

Also, ha ha, yesterday I saw 17 cars drive through red lights. I counted naturally. One to enter a box junction blocking our path. Not one single bike though.I've seen many cars jump red lights by a second or two or sneak through on amber hoping they're over the line before red but I can't say I've ever seen a car driver look at a red light that's been red for 20 seconds then just drive through it like it wasn't there , but I guess that's to do with them having number plates that are traceable , I'm sure if they weren't many more would do it I'm sorry if my title "cyclists" offended you but I was off to the pub so it was the first thing that came into my head Remspoor 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
New POD Posted November 18, 2018 Share Posted November 18, 2018 SOME Cyclists https://www.facebook.com/243043766096630/videos/247945915606415/I'm a cyclist and that is fucking funny to me. I'm not in the least offended. There does seem to be a fair few cyclists with a death wish. Why cycle on a road at all, if there's a perfectly good cycle path???? Whilst waiting as traffic lights today a cyclist undertook me. I would usually position my car further to the right but the car in front was turning right so I positioned myself to the left. As I pull away a cyclist appears in my perifial Vision to the left. The fucker is so close that his handlebars are mm from my wing mirror. He didn't fall off but fuck me, he was close. alf892 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sir Snipes Posted November 18, 2018 Share Posted November 18, 2018 i watched an Edinburgh taxi jump a red about 15 seconds before it went green, with a couple of cars following, after waiting a while. Was pretty random, and got them nowhere as I caught them at another red around the corner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
