nsr Posted May 28, 2019 Share Posted May 28, 2019 My wife once lost her engagement ring while doing some cleaning. She spent a panicked afternoon tearing the house apart looking for it. I got home from work and within literally 30 seconds I had it in my hand, 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I then got a torrent of abuse for going to Tesco (which is on my way home) before going to help find the passport. Not even 10 minutes after I arrived I had found it, in a perfume drawer. Today, I come out the barbers to a text saying I don't know where my currency card is, do you know? Of course I don't it's not my purse and it's not my card. So I arrive and find the bloody card again. Women always go on about organisational skills. Fucking idiots. They seem to be able to organise us round their little fingers. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This ^^^^^^^^^^^ It seems older drivers have a belief they need to indicate at least left or right regardless of which way they intend to go. This leads to much confusion. Just remembered 1 that I seen last week. Woman was in the left lane and indicating right, she proceeded to go straight ahead. On this particular roundabout the straight ahead lane is the right. An epic fail all round. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If there's someone sitting on your arse you're better indicating early rather than late. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm thinking more of the scenario where there are three possible left turns coming up close together, someone signals before the first but then sails on and takes the third. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jacksgranda Posted May 28, 2019 Share Posted May 28, 2019 Well, he'd need to indicate as soon as he passes the second one. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nsr Posted May 28, 2019 Share Posted May 28, 2019 Indeed. But I regularly see people indicate before they even reach the first. And it gets mightily on my tits. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can see my phone getting strapped to the dog. Recently retired German footballer Stefan Kiessling had to wear a fitness tracking watch all summer so Leverkusen could monitor their players and ensure they were sticking to their off season fitness/running plan. He did very little but gave the watch to his wife (who was an avid runner) every day and the club never noticed. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beats slamming the brakes on before signalling. Annoying if you were trying to come out of the first turning though. And dangerous. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
