Don't ever try to get into the mind of a chav, mate, too little room in there.


Uh ? - I thought chav's had totally empty heads..........that's why it takes them so long to work something out, an idea goes in one ear, rattles around for a few hours, getting totally mashed and then pops out the other ear...................

You are right, bad simile. Although I adapted one of your sayings: Little minds......

BTW, nice hooha around your place yesterday. Took me hours to get around the viaduct.

Yeah, the viaduct was a mess - and at one point they shut the 'old' road that runs from Ware to Hertford to !

I ended up getting home (from Banbury & Witney area !) via Broxbourne woods - that was like WW3 had kicked off, big trees/little trees/big branches/little branches down all over the place - and parts of the road were so flooded you couldn't see where the woods and tarmac met !! (quite good fun actually !!!)

What about occulting white lights?
Would an offence be commited if the headlights were able flash or strobe alternately - a feature that the emergency services often use in conjunction with blues - if I saw flashing/strobe headlights and no blues, I'd still pull out their way.

I dont know, seing as its just classed as a way of getting attention.
I must confess the the activities of the UK governments for the past couple of years have been watched with frank admiration and amazement by Lord Vetinari. Outright theft as a policy had never occured to him.

You can get white strobes that fit inside your headlamps but it says on the box for show / off road use only. so should be ok on a pay and play site :wink: .

And with flashing blue lights if its a no no why are they fitted as standerd on all quarry machines so they light up when reversing also some of them are mounted on the roof as well as red lights and the normal orange ones
