Yo
Stupid driver cuts me up, makes me brake hard, I go for the main beam flash, pull the stalk and....OH NO, I've done it again!!
I went and turned my lights off and started indicating right instead of flashing him, how embarassing
Anyone else do this? I always seem to pull it off.

Happened to me many a time:
"You part of a females anatomy, beep beep beep beep my right of F&*(&(* way beep beep may your children burn in hell beep beep beep beep ................ git"
During this lurid process of politely telling my fellow road user how to use his vehicle I am turning on my rear wash wipe indicating left and turning right.................Doh!

I wish car makers could standardise the side they put indicator/wiper stalks. My fords on 1 side and Scoobs on the other. Manys the time I get caught behind a volvo in the 22B and menacingly wipe my screen at him.

At least imported cars get it right!!!!!!!
Most right hand drive cars in the UK used to have indicators on the right, until the EU demande that they be on the left so you could still operate the gearstick with your right hand - (don't they realise our gearstick isn't attached to the door)
Fortunately the Japs still get it right for they're own cars

Funny you should say that the amount of times my wife has told me off and said I hope that you’re not going to do that when the baby's in the car.
Of course I will drive sanely and totally in control. I don't know what it is though, I never use to be like this before I moved to London. It’s a different world, rather like death race 2000 on the north circ.

Well, my scoob's my first car with the horn on the steering wheel, so I must be one of the few people in the UK who gets so mad at the driver in front that I actually wash my windscreen at him.

Found the best thing to do is have the window open.
Then you can shout your head off with out washing the windowns or indicating, still with the kids in the car usualy means we are in the wife's Shogun so people dont normaly cut it up !!!

Oh Yes, can I ever relate to this..driving wife's ford..how many times have I waved apologies to the guy in front who thinks I want a fight when I just want to wash the screen, or indicate when I have no intention of turning..so confusing officer

Just about getting used to the MY96 having the wipers on the left, flashers on the right, then I get back in the Cavalier for 5 minutes and do the same in that - DOH!
Isn't the MY99/2K to EC spec?

I've done worse. Some moron cut me up on the Watford ring road and he pissed me off so much I flashed him rather hard snapping of the indicator stalk in my hand.
Doh !!
I was in a Fiat Strada Abarth at the time so thats probably not that suprising it fell apart in my hands.

I am sooooooooo impressed with your 'smileys' !
I have to confess I have been 'stealing them!
How do you put them into posts ? - or is it equivalent to being in the 'magic circle' - you can't reveal the secrets !
Cheers

In answer to your question, you must first learn the ways of the force before I can bestow upon you any answers, beware the path that leads to the darkside though!!

No, you won't believe this though, about 4 weeks ago my wife catnapped a beautiful black Persian cat. The cat came in and my wife fed it (fatal) and basically it has never left. When it first arrived it looked like it had been abandoned, and we have gradually been feeding it, week by week its' belly just grew like you can't believe.
Then about a week ago this male cat wouldn't stop hanging around our back door, that’s when I put two and two together and thought that the cat might be pregnant.
My wife a so called cat whisperer dismissed this and put it down to her eating alot, then last night I was my office at home and heard lots of little squeaks, I look under the coffee table and there's the cat with 6 little kittens hanging of her!!!
Doh!!!!
I hope that it’s a good omen my wife’s due tomorrow, babies everywhere.................Doh!
PS If anyone knows anyone who might want a Kitten in the next month or so then please E-mail me. Kittens will be dished out for the best offer or bribe of alcohol (god knows I am gunna need it) or cash.
In fact that’s it I may even have an online auction, he he.
