....Or has just picked his ear with his extra-long little finger nail, and just flicked, ehem, 'it' off...... :shock: :lol:

how about when turning right at traffic lights, its the on coming traffics right of way when the green arrow goes off, and you get cut up by a bloody great bus, who inturn makes the oncomming traffic wait. This seems to happen to me every time at the lights on to nissi ave in napa.

come on weve missed taxi drivers, right your doing you friends a favour and picking them up at Paphos airport at some unearthly hour youve just turned right off main highway just past Eskipoopoo or what ever you call it and on road to airport when youve got at least a dozen taxis up your arse doing two hundred miles an hour like theres no tomorrow just to sit at the back of a line of two thousand taxis at the arrival terminal when they get there, WHATS ALL THAT ABOUT,

We have to add another one:

Park in the middle of the road. Preferably taking up an entire bloody lane just for that certain je ne sais quoi.

Sit in the coffeeshop you've parked directly in front of, laughing hysterically when other drivers stop behind your parked car, actually thinking that it's a lane of queued traffic.

And what about, seeing an old mate, and stopping the car to chat in the middle of the road, one going one way the mate coming from the other direction, windows down, chatting oblivious to the inconvenience they are causing.

And the one where your on the main highway and you want to turn left or right and you hear the os so often blast of a horn because the twat behind you is more or less in your boot and hes blasting you because he has to brake sharply to stop himself ending in your engine compartment WHATS ALL THAT ABOUT.

I bawled out some old girl for turning right without indicating she replied "what's the matter with you, everyone knowsI live down this road!"
