Dartford f**cking toll bridge, why when we are supposed to be cutting polloution and trying to save petrol do the Gov create a traffic jam just so they can charge you one flipping pound for a bridge that was supposed to be free once it was paid for via the toll?

The times I have queued from past the A127 just to toss a coin are beyond measure.


Ah, I well rememer when the bridge was being built - I was commuting at the time between Cranbrook and Harlow.  The night they found a bomb, I got home at 5 o'clock the following morning, just in time to grab breakfast and head back.  You mean they haven't paid for it yet?
Move to France, that's what I say. ;)

Yes the M4 is a joke, and the busiest motorway in the world.  Even the stretch between Newbury and Swindon could only manage 5 mph last Friday and Sunday

You may have noticed That I have re-named this thread to reflect the direction it was heading. I do believe that we all need a good whinge and moan occasionally. So go for it and vent your spleen here (whatever that means) grizzle and gripe about anything that pisses you off.

I am convinced that this thread can outrun Zarses outdated Commer thread and Robs overrated G-Day thread.

Go on boys have a damn good moan, you'll feel better for it.

I will retire gracefully now but I will be popping in from time to time to make sure you are all being a bunch of miserable bastards.

Yours bloody faithfully

BTW  have you met my best friends

2 1/2 bloody hours it took me to get from Kew Gardens to Penn, which is all of 15 miles.

Serves ya right, you should have cycled it! 

Yours in sweetness and light

A bit late on this one but...
People used to bring cars to the Indy 500 or USGP at the Glen specifically for BURNING!
Hey! No bitching about the state of the roads in the UK until you've been over here to see the disasters we call Interstates, most of which look like they've been used for carpet bombing pratice by B-52's.

Aha, carpet bombing! There's a really good idea for the M25, what a disgrace that is... And the M1, my God what good is it? Truly the road to hell.


grump...grump...grump

(Hey BobU, do I got the general idea here?)

Most motorways are a bloody nightmare these days, and why do people have to stick at 65mph in the middle lane? whats wrong with the inside lane??? Not wishing to be racisist, but they always seem to be driving Datsun's and the drivers are very well tanned - why, whats wrong with these people???

Right my rant!! Why am I having to argue the final £40 out of one of our party this year. Next year money all up front! Including the food, wine, entry fuel, etc.

There is always one! And he logs on here here from time to time. He will be named in two weeks if he hasn't paid.

Yes it is only £40 but it is more the principle that he doesn't understand the effort that is put in!
Did anyone notice how quiet the A16 was between Rouen and Calais on Sunday night?  ;D ;D ;D[/b]

I loved Clarkson's comment about the Bluebird  "I know they're made in Sunderland, but do they actually make new ones, they all seem to be 10 years old" 

And doing 65 in the middle lane.  Its a b@$tard of a job getting the caravan past them.

Agree wholeheartedly with you there, Lorry.  Much flashing of headlights, and they point to the outside lane.  They don't seem to know that we are not allowed in the third lane when towing.

Have to admit to 'undertaking' on several occasions   ::) ::) ::)
