    I see plenty of idiocy caused by the ker-ching cameras- idiot hurtling along, sees the gatso, chucks the anchor out, trundles past, boots it again. How has that contributed to safety?
    SPECS cameras in roadworks annoy me too- while I agree they’re a bloody good idea to keep the speeds down where there’s guys trying to do their job on the road, they’d be better employed to survey traffic for idiots as well. For example, the idiots who swap lanes and attempt to swap bumper paint at any opportunity. Or the Foreign truckers who pile through at full speed regardless, knowing fully well the authorities won’t bother to persue the speeding fine. Or the truckers who force their way through in the outside lane, even though it’s clearly marked for vehicles under 6ft 6 wide.
    Have the cameras, yes, but also monitor them for idiots and have motorway patrol police standing by to collar the morons.

    A London hotel that I stayed in recently was charging £4.25 for a 330ml bottle of Budweiser and £5.20 for a pint of Guinness.

    Jesus H. Christ!!! That’s outrageous. I pay £2.60 for a pint of cask in my local, the Guinness went over the £3 mark a bit ago to much grumbling. Doesn’t stop them swilling it though… 😉

    I’ve lived here in Argentina, an exile from Yorkshire, Tetleys and Baked Beans, for some 17 years now.

    I wouldn’t miss the Tetleys, particularly. Now if you were to say Theakston’s, Black Sheep, Sam Smith’s, etc. it’d be a different matter 😉

    Simple rule of thumb for you 319- assume everyone else on the road is a dumbass and act accordingly. That way they can only pleasantly surprise you… 🙂
