You know when you are driving around you sometimes come across a bunch of OAPs sitting around in picnic chairs next to their Volvo 340s, with clip boards on their laps looking at the traffic.

There were a bunch on the M25 this morning on the flyover at Junction 18.

What are they doing? Or are they just very committed Scooby watchers?

Were they true to form and had the bonnet of the car up?? (Maybe the Max Power brigade will take on these jobs when they retire..... )
