bike2steam Posted August 15, 2018 Share Posted August 15, 2018 My first thought was - when did they start driving on the right in Birmingham? Old habits die hard. I'll say no more or I'll get accused of racism. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

But it is probably one of these convoluted road systems commonly found around there. Road works look at the picture carefully It seems like they drive wherever they want in certain parts of that city...…. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RMweb Premium melmerby Posted August 15, 2018 RMweb Premium Share Posted August 15, 2018 It seems like they drive wherever they want in certain parts of that city...…. They also park wherever they like in certain districts Bus drivers constantly complain about vehicles in bus lanes. The same cars are there day in day out and not a tapper is done about it.

duncan Posted August 15, 2018 Share Posted August 15, 2018 If you go into Birmingham and no doubt other cities as well, you will see these Uber Eats & Deliveroo etc. riders completely ignoring the road signs as part of their normal routine. IMHO if they were made to keep to the highway code and not ride their bikes, mopeds et al the wrong way up streets, through pedestrian only areas and up tram only sections they would not be able to offer the speedy service they rely on and their customers would stop buying. Good! They are a total PITA. Keith Now that Uber etc gig "staff" are being treated as employees, surely the company should be prosecuted for employees breaking the law ? 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Gold Budgie Posted August 15, 2018 RMweb Gold Share Posted August 15, 2018 Who buys Christmas cards in the six months before Christmas? We buy ours after the new year, when they are reduced. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Porcy Mane Posted August 15, 2018 Share Posted August 15, 2018 Who buys Christmas cards in the six months before Christmas? We buy ours after the new year, when they are reduced. Most people I know buy them 51 weeks before Xmas. Saves a fortune. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Gold ian Posted August 16, 2018 RMweb Gold Share Posted August 16, 2018 I went into the bank today as I had to withdraw more cash than you can get from a hole in the wall. After processing the transaction the cashier asked "Have you considered using our mobile banking app?" I replied "When they invent a 'phone that can print bank notes I'll consider it." Well, it made me smile. 5 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rugd1022 Posted August 16, 2018 Share Posted August 16, 2018 Who buys Christmas cards in the six months before Christmas? We buy ours after the new year, when they are reduced. I've no idea who my other half's customers actually are but judging by their facebook photos they all look like 'ladies wot lunch', they usually want quality hand made cards, toys, decorations etc but don't have the time to make them. Whoever they are, they're helping to pay off our mortgage! 5 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stanley Melrose Posted August 17, 2018 Share Posted August 17, 2018 On another topic about Railway livery colours, I posted a comment that there might be Fake Hues after another contributor suggested the debate might be Fake News. This set me thinking - so: Fake booze = non-alcoholic beer Fake coos = someone imitating a pigeon Fake doos = invitation to a non-existent party Fake hues = done that one Fake jews = circumcised gentile Fake loos = public inconveniences Fake moos = someone else imitating a cow Fake news = the original Fake poos = plastic dog muck Fake queues = bendy snooker cue Fake twos = 1.5 or 2.4 rounded Fake views = theatre back scene Fake yews = model trees Fake zoos = empty animal sanctuary Over to the more creative . . .
