Arguments among people who all clearly own driving gloves.

At 2.00am one night a long time ago (02?) I was driving a Vauxhall Vectra ARV on blues/flashing headlights to Milton Keynes via the M25. I was going as fast as I could, 130+, in lane 4 next to the central reservation. My crewmate was unsheathing me a Café Crème by the light of the glovebox as we approached junction 16. Ahead was a black XR3i that was being overtaken by another car and another car was overtaking both in lane 3. At that point XR3i comes from lane 1 to lane 4 doing about 50 mph. I tried to stop us hitting the XR3i but smacked it at about 65. At this point there was nobody else on the motorway. We both pulled onto the hard shoulder and I spoke to the driver. He apologised and said he'd heard the two tones ( they weren't on) and saw the flashing lights (they were on) but he knew he needed to stay on the M25 so thought he needed to be in lane 4. He also said he was from the Isle of Wight and didn't know how to use motorways. Bloody grockles. CSB etc.

You can spot visiting drivers from the Isle of Wight freaking out once they hit 50mph on the m27. Their number plates start HW.

I got an NIP for careless driving for that too. It didn't go any further though, for either of us.

Couldn't get past this bit.

… managed* motorways.
*they’re not smart
They’re a crime against Engineering and Transport Planning. Recruiters always ask me if I fancy working in Highways again.
No thanks.
Local schemes = dealing with Local Councils
National schemes - I’m not putting my name to anything that suggests driving in the hardshoulder is fine. -

Google.
Tried to look for two products today that I know exist; Muc-off ultrasonic cleaner and Jtek dynamo hub.
Google refused to show any links to either product, only those from rival manufacturers.
Total w##k of a search engine that promotes sponsoreds products and does f##* all else. -

I think your computer/phone is broken. Google gives me links to those products as first hit.

The muc-off thing looks like a service rather than product. Drop your chain off at a suitable bike shop and they'll give it a run through on an ultrasonic cleaner.
That what you were looking for?

That’s where I saw it first while scanning their site for all sorts. Rather than get taken in by their sale price I tried to check there wasn’t greater reductions elsewhere. Nothing from Google whatsoever. Not even SJS.

Ok, fair enough. Perhaps it’s only available to the trade…..which I am, but haven’t been offered it yet…..anyone out there from Muc Off? Hello…coo-eee!

The inconsistency of mandarin oranges.
Regularly taste one segment and the rest goes straight in the bin.
As long as you also do it for people in the correct lane
