Last night, 9 o'clock I've just come out of the Atlantic Bar, Picadilly on my way to Cheers on Regent Street.

A once in a lifetime opportunity presents itself and I need to know if I did the right thing.

A New VW Beetle pulls up at the traffic lights in Picadilly Circus with its foglights ON!!!!!!

Now a sane rational man, even if irritated may well ignore it. But not me, Pettitt's had loads to drink already and I'm ready to take on the world (ok some smarmy VW Beetle driver)........isn't alchol wonderful like that?

I launch myself like a rocket into the middle of Regent Street and heres the conversation (as I remember it):

Me shouting "IS IT FOGGY"

Him embarressed that some loon has targeted him "what?"

Me "IS IT FOGGY"

Him "Why?"

Me "YOUV'E GOT YOUR FOG LIGHTS ON"

Him "So?"

Me "ITS BLOODY ILLEGAL, TURN THEM OFF"

Him, smiles

Me "THEY BLIND EVERYONE YOU MUPPET, YOU'RE AN IDIOT"

Him, look of relief as the lights turn green and he is able to drive away

Needless to say I had a great night, well it must have been good because I'm nursing a major hangover which is being largely cured by two Nurofen Plus, 1 Berocca, 1 bottle of Lucozade Lemon Energy, 1 Red Ambulance, two glasses of water, 1 black coffee and a bacon roll.

So did I do the right thing?

VOTE NOW

Definately. If anything you should have killed him for 2 reasons:

a) Driving a girls car (sorry scooby driving girls)

b) Having fog lights on.

If only I were in power!!

Forgive my lack of deductive reasoning - got hammered meself last nite and not exactly @ my best.

Are you saying that you got pi$$ed, drove (home) and abused a Beetle driver for having his fog-lites on?

Oh dear - my lights are on but no-ones home!
My eyes have just come into focus and the fog that surrounds my brain is clearing - i see now - you abused him as you was a PEDESTRIAN (walking/stagering).

Yep - you get my vote

Sod auto rain sensing wipers - they should sort out auto fog/reduced visibility sensing fog lights.

Dave - Can I suggest that for your own safety and comfort you should never visit Belfast.

fast bloke

p.s. Paul - Where does he say he was driving?

Too right! Can't tolerate these to**ers who drive with Fog lights on because they think it looks good! Durrrr!

Nice one Dave

If it had been me though.....I would have sat behind about 30yds and turned my gas discharge driving lights on (providing nothing was coming the other way) just to prove a point that lights can blind

I think you've done the right thing, especially the bacon roll.

You'll feel better in no time.

If you've ever been to B'mth, the scum drive round in circles with fog lights, mingin' bit**es in the back, blacked out windows, teeth missing, and trying to kill pedestrians.

I spend most of my drunken time asking them why they've got em on when they are stopped in traffic.

Most of em look quite embarrassed. once or twicw one of the mingers will pipe up "yeah Dave, why have you got em on" Esp if you get around 10 people to point and shout "loser" at them.

Always give people the full beam with fogs on.

...I have to disagree - I'm afraid that you did entirely the wrong thing in this scenario.....
what you should have done was opened up his door ...dragged him out and bitch slapped him around until he apologised profusely for
a) driving with fogs on
b) having a hairdressers car and being a mincing shandy drinking poof

...he would have realised the error of his ways sooner than with a stern talking to.....

DMB

Yeah thats the way to treat em. Shame the lights changed.

MB - "If you've ever been to B'mth, the scum drive round in circles with fog lights, mingin' bit**es in the back...."

ROFLMAO so true it hurts to think about it. John Boy Nova 1.4 si (i think, couldn't really see through the tears of laughter) had a go today - on a dual carrigeway. What do you do???

Richard - Bitch slapping the mincer - nice one i'll stop laughing in a minute

teknopete

IMHO Richards got the right idea.

Still ROFL

Could even chuck him in the boot after a good bitch slappin and hand him the keys b 4 u shut it 2 give him time 2 think about the error of his ways

Nope , i have to disagree also - you did the wrong thing the morning after ;-)

You had a lemon Lucozade and headache tablets, black coffee etc when all you really needed was a bottle of Irn Bru. It's a miracle hangover cure for the morning after and really does work.

Yes..................................!!!!!!
