I live in Torquay, and on bank holiday weekends, head up to Yorkshire to ■■■■ off the local gumpy ■■■■■■■ called R…something. Does he not realize that we have nothing better to do than clog up the place?
We work tirelessly all week, on lovely uncongested European roads, and come home to face this tirade of Northern abuse!
Well Mr moderators. I hope you give this cranky old bugger a reet good tellin’ to get off our cases.
I used a localism there, in case he’d get the point himself.
MISERABLE OLD SCROTE!!! 
And another thing…why do pensioners go shopping at the weekend when they’ve had all bleeding week to get out? 
You’ve got to be nuts to jump in the car easter weekend. Chill out at home, jeez. 
I do hope Disgruntled takes precautions with the lady in Goole, the reason she has so many Trilby hats is because she has seen off a few of her gentlemen callers over the years. If you find a rather splendid titfer with a small glass encrusted stud in the brim. I would appreciate its return as it was my late dads, 34 is no age

Bit like Barry Island mate. People drive from all over South Wales (and further now, thanks to Gavin & Stacey) to come and look at our collection of traffic jams!Ahh well… I for one have had a lot of good nights out in South Wales when I was on the coal, loved the place and most of all It’s people, I have done Barry on the old boat from Weston when I was a young un ( that’s going back a bit
Don’t go back you will be disappointed.
I wonder if this happens in other European countries.■■?

It does.
For instance, Belgium will have tilted to the west today as they all head to the edge of their country to see what happens when the land stops. Equilibrium will be restored this evening when they all head back toward Brussels and the E40 will resemble a car park.

I know, they are like Lemmings jumping off the beach at Oostende, Blankenberge and Knokke Heist. I think the Belgians are all members of the flat earth society anyway

Dear sir,
I wish to complain about the way that rover drivers are portrayed on this website. I recently purchased a second hand Rover to ues for commuting to work, and save my “nice” car for best. It did not come with a trilby hat! should i return it to the vendor and complain, or just go to the nearest hatter and purchase one? I have hardly ever worn a Trilby, only on special occasions when visiting a certain lady in goole who likes that kind of thing, as she has her own supply, i never felt the need to buy one.
Can I also say that my rover does not always turn into garden centres, ok, I needed to train it when i first got it but It will now pass the local wyevale with nothing more than a slight wheel wobble. Maybe i am just lucky, but i also discovered that my rover can exceed 20 MPH in town and 40 MPH on a motorway, and the bits that fall off are easy to replace with a bit of bostick.

It’s that time of year when you can guarantee a motorist will pull straight off the hard shoulder in to traffic without building up speed. Your not even allowed to crush them.

One of my ex girlfriends lost her engagement ring on the beach in blankenberge, imagine my surprise when, some 20 years later,I was on the beach in southend, when I was amazed to find an old top from a bottle of Maes pils I threw overboard from a cross channel ferry

[zb] sick of them. Bank holiday travellers. Nowhere to go and all day to do it.Had to move some kit from Skipton to Harrogate today - a journey that normally takes about 20-25 mins. 2.5 hours today
Why can’t they just all stay at home and get the paddling pool out for the kids and crank up the barbie and invite some mates round with their kids? Why does everyone have to waste £40 of fuel travelling to some random place that looks good on the map and just [zb] clog up all the roads for people that do actually have stuff to do and places to go? They should be banned!
Well I didn’t know it would be “very busy” otherwise I wouldn’t have gone that way.
get it right up ye pot kettle and black spring’s to mind.
should live round here then in sunny sizzle hot felixstowe…I live right by the beach…well cliff top and you tend to get a few people try and park over our driveway entrance(its got double yellow lines all along the road but they still try and park there) Moved 1 yesterday landrover discovery with tow rope soon moves a car,police dont want to know either they are busy enough round here on weekends. gets worse when there is a bike rally but then i just park at the end of the driveway and people tend to get the message…
