Someone who *is* Roy, or knows him, has put his name on a pound coin. Maybe in a pub game or draw or something? Anyway, that mystery remains.So then...how did it get in my car? I know only one Roy, and he`s certainly never been near my car...especially its back seat. But I couldn`t bring myself to spend the damn thing until I`d solved the mystery.
Maybe you can.
And so while you`re at it, and as you`re probably brighter than me , I`d love it if you could also throw some light on other apparently simple things...that I just don`t get.
1) Men who strim every sodding tree; every week. Let it grow. Or help me patent a device that plays nice funky tunes instead of the motor noise, so that I can dance while you strim.
2) People who really dawdle when they`re approaching a red traffic light (and hold everyone up.....) because they can`t be arsed to change down through the gears and put the handbrake on.
3) Motorists who drive round multi-storey carparks with their ticket in their mouth.
4) People who get their tiny baby`s ears pierced.
5) Hotels which don`t have power points near the bed to recharge your morning- alarmed phone. Now I`ve got to pad across the room when it rings, see?
6) Postmen who are still driving round in Salford Van Hire vehicles instead of Royal Mail red ones. What`s going on?
7) Weight. How come it goes on so much faster than it ever comes off.
8) People who aren`t on the transplant register. It ain`t gonna hurt you. But it could save lives.
9) Drivers who don`t put their lights on at dusk and dawn. The meter won`t run out, you know.
10) People who say: "Is it cold...or is it me..?" If you`re cold, you`re cold.
Help me with any of that? Or...what`s puzzling you today? Please unfurrow my brow, because I can`t afford Botox and wouldn`t do that anyway. (OK: 11) People who do Botox
Happy Monday!! :)
I will comment on people approaching a red traffic light slowly.
ReplyDeletethere is a timing trick with most traffic light, if you slow to 18-20 mph. then the time between the light sensing your car to the light changing is the length between the first sensor and the stop point.
So most of the time the light will be on green as you reach the stop point and you can carry on without stopping.
Ah. Dave. You`re too clever. But honestly? When someone in front of me does it...I just think it`s a bit, you know, selfish. It`s forcing everyone to do the same.
