I thought it was common sense and practice that you don't pull up the side of a lorry if they are turning left on a roundabout and that if you cant see someone's mirrors they cant see you.

That video is slightly wrong, ok you couldn't see them in the sweep mirror, but you would've bend able to see them in the curb mirror, which is at the top of the door going downwards, and when driving through built up areas where that amount of cyclists would, you should be checking your mirrors all the time, not just when you're about to turn!

You'd think but people still do it and I still get people who occasionally honk at me for not pulling forward along side a lorry.

 

I had to tow someone off a roundabout earlier this year after a lorry's trailer smashed into them twisting the cars rear suspension.

Why do companies insist on doing competitions on Facebook? I'm not on Facebook, neither is many of my friends now so we have to lose out on some good competitions. :(

I hate this too when people say, "look me up on facebook". No. I refuse to use facebook. If you want to get hold of me phone me. You have my number.

 

Where I work they have banned people from using facebook, twitter and ebay. The only twitter account that can be used is the companies official one and only a few people have access to it.

 

Grimshaw17. Tell her you are bankrupt. If she stays then yes she does like you. If not... well its fairly self explanatory.

 

A follow up to my "why do woman where high heels?" We went out for my mum's birthday today for lunch. My mum wore high heals and was really unsteady on her feet. She kept hold of the hand rail to the little bridge we had to walk over to get to the pub and onto my dad the rest of the way.

 

My mum is only 5' 2". Even with high heels she is still short so what's the point?

 Don't get me wrong, I have uggs but if they ended up like this, they would go straight in the bin...but I saw several women in the playground today wearing uggs what have done this....WHY!? They do not look attractive and surely they can't be good for your feet and posture. Bin them!!

I've had trainers and steel top cap boots that can beat that.

 

I always think that UGG boots look like slippers.
