Bloody nightmare there during the day, n I nearly had a situatin with some twonk who parked a car and compressor opposite the pick up window at mc d's in the middle of the car park exit so he could drink his coffee, I had to wait till the drive through was clear cos he wouldn't move.
Aren't our roads busy nowdays, everywhere, the traffic in rawtenstall is horendous now the lights are feeding the Asda eyesore.

It's amazingly quiet outside here at the mo. No boy racers or anything.

Have you read your PM Madhatter?

its quiet here now but incredibly busy during the day to say we have a two bypasses.
Liverpool always amazed me, if i travelled south at 2 in the morning the main roads out would be dead, I could travel from city and only see a couple of taxis, from sefton park to the silver jubillee bridge I didnt see any.

If you have kids would you take the same view if one of these speeding cars knocked down and killed YOUR kid or any other member of your family? Your mum perhaps? Would you find that situation boring? Your own flesh and blood? I think not!

The point I was making that the thread was quite interesting until it got split into two, I didn't think Mick needed to do that as the two subjects where connected. I have kids and I have lost friends in road accidents but that was not the subject this time.

I too thought it was strange that we were warned about thread wandering, especially as the two things were connected, and made even more relevant by Poppy's comments.

You want to be on our street, its a cul-de-sac and the road is concrete. Ideal for speeding cars who want to do a handbrake turn by the turning point. Great for doing "donuts" as well.
