It seems that giving your life for your country, regardless of whether you agree with the campaign or not or the fact that you have no choice whether to go or not. is ok as long as your cortage does not inconvenience a wagon driver making a delivery or collection. how sad is that?
I have read on this forum how drivers feel they get little or no respect, sorry mate its thinking like that which drags us all down. how many ex forces people are truckers? how must they feel reading a post like this.
■■■■■■■■ to getting stuck behind it.
Yes Saaamon, we can’t have you getting to the R.D.C.with your load of washing powder ten minutes late now can we .

There was some muppet on the radio suggesting that they should route the cortege through Carterton. This, of course, is in the opposite direction to Oxford where they are going.
The MOD plan to use one of the crash gates to bring the corteges out, along the Bampton-Brize Road next to the industrial estate; the new Repat building is being built near there so the families are not disturbed by the noise of the base. The only problem with using that gate is it’s where all the anoraks and ■■■ offenders park and write down plane numbers.

Ive been caught behind the funeral cars a couple time coming out of Lyneham base main entrance,i only follow as far as the turning for Chippenham then pop down to the M4 that way,it doesnt bother me one bit getting stuck as it’s 20 minutes out of my life,theyve given the rest of theirs…
Well said!!
But if I choose to avoid it, what’s so disrespectful? If I’m on the A420 and I’ve heard on the radio there’s a cortege planned, I’ll go to Lechlade and up to Burford and let those who want to stand there do so in peace.
It says nothing about being disrespectful there??
I see nothing disrespectful about planning around it at all, however if I was caught up in it i would not be complaining at all as they deserve all the respect in the world.
they was a wooton basset woman moaning she couldnt get her car to pick kids up froms chool so the mother sorted for 1 parent just to drive and get the kids… id have thought this was a good thing? saving fuel, etc… why cant they do this every day■■? saving cloggin up roads
