Sometimes it's just plain embarrasing.

Post by Bailes1992 »

So tommorow I'm off to Nottingham for the weekend because my sister is off to see her friend.
Now her train ticket was going to be £76 so I offered to take her up for the weekend and Me and the Other half would go stay in a hotel for the weekend.

So I just phoned my sister up (She's in uni in Cardiff and I wanted a look at a map to work out where I'm going tommorow).

"Kate... Where we going tommorow then?"
"Well we're going to Olivias"
"Yeah I know but have you got an address?"
"We don't need one, it's only Olivias"
"But I have no idea where she is?"
"Oh... Yeah... I just though cause it was Olivias we'd know"

Bare in mind she's never been to Nottingham, she dosen't know where it is and somehow I'm supposed know exactly where her friend is staying :?

Hard to think she's doing a law degree :lol:

Yeah, and they love the 'ole Gantry speed cameras up there! Noticed a few driving through Newport every morning too which is annoying!

She just came out with another complete belter...

"What time we leaving tommorow then?"
"Well I expect to be on the motorway by 5"
"Oh thats okay then, I have to go get some stuff off Olivias Mum (who lives a stone throws away from us) at 5.30"

Yep, watch it in Nottingham. The local authority have a pathological vendetta against motorists. For example there are even average speed cameras on the major routes round town.

Current: 407 2.2 HDi 170 & C6 2.7 HDi.
Former: 406 1.9 TD; 406 HDi 90; 407 2.2 160; 307cc 180; 508 HDi 140.

We have a new speed ticker in Swindon...

We also have ones where if ANYONE in the 'zone' is speeding, the set of traffic lights change to red; thus everyone then seeks out who was speeding and will of course, no doubt lead to many a road rage scenes.........

Not all us women are like that......

If you're speeding a big spike comes out the ground and impales the driver? I can't wait for the cops to realise how much money they could be making and implement some of this crap here. I've been told there's one fixed camera in ZG but I've not seen it, only muppets taking pictures with mobile cameras & stopping cars further up (like what they done to me just before Christas, happy crimbo to you too, cnut :evil: )
