    Things that peeved me off today

    My 2014 E class Merc coupé needs a new set of rear tyres after 17000 miles @ £270 a corner

    FFS 17k - the C class did double that per set

    Fooking Pirelli rubbish

    Went ooop North and back in a day today - 580 miles - bit of rain and wind on the M40 coming back and fookwits start to hog the middle lane with their fog lights on imagining somehow it makes them safer

    I should be legally empowered to shoot anyone who cannot do more than 50mph in the rain on a Motorway

    Birmingham has had roadworks for a "managed motorway" installation - i.e. lets slow your journey down today- for what seems like forever, - I proposed for all our sakes we nuke Birmingham - thank God for the Toll road to get you away from there ASAP
    How fortunate for governments that the people they administer don't think

    Oh - & then some dipstick lorry driver thought it would be a good idea to overturn his lorry on the M20 - meaning an hour diversion to get home

    Should be legally empowered to shoot lorry drivers who overturn their vehicles

      Tyres? What do you need tyres for?

        Tyres that don't wear out are generally tulipe and dangerous. Sticky, grippy tyres are softer compounds, they don't last as long, but you appreciate the grip.

        HTH BIDI.

          The govt should help people with insurance if they drive on dodgy tyres or live on flood plains.

                I will be peeved the day they legally empower morons to own firearms. If you want to handle a gun join the Army, or else be content with your keyboard!

                  Have already whinged in TPD, but seeing as you asked...

                  M&S have (approx) 147 men's suits in store, and 0 women's.

                  They have no black jackets. Or blue jackets. A green jacket in was all they could offer.

                  Supposed to be the 3rd largest store in Europe. Am very pissed off.
