Dont be a dick, dont make judgements about me and my actions by what you see in one picture.

How many pictures does it take to know you park on the pavement?

We know you don't care. That's exactly the point I've been making.

I'm siding with onyirtodd. Pavements are not for cars, they are not constructed to carry cars they are constructed to carry pedestrian and other lightweight traffic. Park the wagon elsewhere and walk to your destination.

Thank you dave3009. Others around these parts will now try to tell us pavements are for cyclists - 'cos the roads are just too dangerous for the poor dears.

I have a walking path running through my woods. Folk on bikes always complain they get chased by dogs. The path is a walking path not a cycle path, life in yer own hands and I'm the wrong man to complain to.................And yes folks who are restricted do suffer - and for what? - to save you a 5 minute walk. Nae sympathy

Have you seen the Kenworth/Peterbuilt that M8 recovery have? I keep hoping to get a pic and a closer look but its always passing me with a bin lorry or bus on the spec lift.

I've seen *something* big and scary carrying other big and scary things around. It must have been that, then.

Let's see who gets a photo first.

Meantime:

OK, it's in Surrey, and sounds like it needs some major undercarriage work, but gotta love a complete Renault 4 for a Buy It Now price of a tenner! Top half looks good, at least!
