So you couldn't see the big yellow thing for so long before you saw the 40 mph limit sign so far up the road that you accelerated up to that speed considerably before the sign and then bitched for getting caught.

If the 'van' was blocking your sight of the camera it would have blocked your sight of the 40 mph sign.

FFS when I got done for 95 in a 50 I didn't even try to defend it. Not that I could...

You do know that they are on both sides of the road because they demark the line where the speed limit applies from? You really aren't helping your case here.

1. you would only get caught once.

2. Just how much over the speed limit would you be going that you can't slow down enough after seeing it?


I prefer this picture. It even says what the speed limit is and warns you of camers.

I bought a battery there

Speed limit signs? Meh.

Bus lane Signs in Glasgow.

Bastirts are more inconspicuous than Workable Tory Budget Plan.

Twice I've been done.

People who are supposed to be friends but seem oddly absent!

Firstly ...
A couple of biker mates ... we all met up years ago via BCF ... she was young, he was older, they got together, make a great couple.

He's had to deal with a few things over the last few months, takes forever to reply to a text (if ever) and has not responded to a phone call in a few months.

She's a bit better, but doesn't respond every time I get in contact (which due to current situation is getting less).

This is the complete opposite of how it used to be .... if I've done something wrong then tell me, I can then say sorry or tell you to feck off ... I think this is called 'ghosting' by the younger generation.

Secondly ...
Start of December shit started happening with my legs again, resulting in open wounds on both my feet and legs ... resulting in a two week hospital stay due to cellulitis in both legs, blood pressure plummeting, kidneys down to 50% etc.

Another couple who I get on good with, the male of which I've worked with over three different employers!

January 15th, she gets in touch (while I'm still in hospital) as they were so worried about me, as it seems my illness was a bit more serious than I'd realised, but hey ho on we go!

He doesn't get in touch as he's scared of upsetting me WTF!

Two weeks have now passed, and they are so worried that I've heard nothing since!!


I really cannot be bothered with this type of crap!

[BanditsHigh]

People who get done for speeding and then complain about it ... it's really quite simple, don't go over the limit, don't get done

[BanditsHigh]

The soon to be low emissions zone in Glasgow ... bounded on two sides by the M8 motorway ... that makes sense!!

Quote from ra'net ... The route has both rural and urban characteristics, and with traffic flows upwards of 150,000 vehicles per day, is amongst the busiest motorways in Europe.

[BanditsHigh]

People, who are having trouble sleeping, posting a lot of shit on BCF ... DOH

[Easy-X]

Jeez, I've just got over Cellulitis in one leg and that was bad enough

I've had similar experiences with "friends" - worked with someone with through numerous employers then disappears into the ether - but in my case I at least know it's me. If it wasn't for my sought after technical knowledge I'd be living as a hermit in a cave. I find not giving a fuck helps a lot though.

@ Banditshigh

I find you've just gotta noise folks up. Instead of sitting waiting for them to get in touch, get in touch with them. As you say, they might think you've got a lot on your plate and don't want to bother you, if they're a good friend you can just let them know this isn't the case.

I've not heard from my best mate, who was best man at my wedding for a couple of years now. He's off doing the family thing and I've got it in my head that his new wife really doesn't approve of me, that I'm a bad infuence, I don't fit in with her idea of who she wants their social circle to be and in some ways she resents the level of friendship we have. I'm probably right in that respect but equally, I should fucking grow a pair and go noise him up because I'm sure he misses me too and she just needs to get over it.

Should've seen the puss on her the last time I was over. She came back after a long weekend to find we'd not decorated the spare room but instead had spent most of it drinking beer and playing computer games and had also found time to go into town and buy him a motorbike...

AI generated shitpost blogs.

You search for something and all the searches return huge, wordy and entirely devoid of insughtful content generic bollocks scattered with affiliate links.

Recipes are bad for it. Also ran into a whole lot of it looking for what mask and snorkel to get my Mum for her birthday. It clearly wan't written by a human being, they all have a very similar tone and the content is broadly the same with varying syntax. Like a couple of people wrote stuff on the subject, then an AI has scraped that content but now it's stuck in a cycle scraping content off other AI generated blogs and re-hashing it.
