very funny ..... but the 20mph applies to them too ... some ride like loons around the town :mad:
with my diesel Kia I not sure I can get into second gear or engine management light would come on after a time as it would not regenerate the PDF it really wants rev over 2000rpm to regenerate

An employee of the rental companies I rent the equipment from told me that he had gone to a party and drank quite a bit but not so much that he realized he couldn't drive his own car home
so he called a colleague who came and picked him up in his car on the way home, they were stopped by a patrol car,
in the patrol car there was an older policeman and a younger policeman.
the younger policeman tok the person on the left front seat out off the car and started with the full alcohol test, follow finger, stand on one leg walk in a line etc. the older policeman asked the younger one have you seen the license plate on the car the younger one said that he hadn't time to bother with the number plate he had a serious case of drunk driving the older policeman said,
now you look at the plate the to first letters was UK
Hi could tell me this since his colleague who was a Norwegian-English man and picked him up in his English car and understands Norwegian told him what happened because he was too drunk to remember it himself
so I guess the junior cop learned to see if there was a wheel in front of the person he picked for drunk driving 🤪

can barely pull 3rd in the Sportage ... won't tolerate anything under 1400rpm when the turbo kicks in .. will just about trickle along on the flat in 3rd, but most of the time it's in 2nd .. real economical that is :rolleyes: ..... won't get out of second in the Golf o_O .... 's a ****in' joke

I went on a steam ploughing weekend and they were laughing about a road run they went on with the engines. Apparently they stopped at a pub and were tucking the pints away and had noticed that they'd been clocked by a passing patrol car, so off they hurriedly set. Got no distance before the stop with the man on the steering wheel being breathalysed and part way through the caution at which point the driver pointed out that the man behind the wheel was his steersman and was not legally in charge. The driver was not a drinker so after a hurried consultation they were off again amid much hilarity 😁

The journey home wasn't as much fun though, got pulled by a random ministry check and found it quite surprising how many faults a thorough "wheel tapper" could find on a low loader 🤣

was down in Cornwall on the Zed, many years ago, for a long weekend ... can't recall the name of the place, but was tiny - came down into it, road ran across the front before climbing out and up again ... high tide and waves swamping the road ... sat at the one end for several minutes, counting waves and choosing my moment ... waited for the '7th' big one and went for it ... no dramas :rolleyes: and no wettings :giggle: G/F'd've killed me if I'd gotten it wrong :ROFLMAO:

John O'Reilly hoisted his beer and said, "Here's to spending the rest of me Life, between the legs of me wife!"

That won him the top prize at the pub for the best toast of the night!

He went home and told his wife, Mary, "I won the prize for the Best toast of the night."

She said, "Aye, did ye now. And what was your toast?"

John said, "Here's to spending the rest of me life, sitting in church beside me wife."

"Oh, that is very nice indeed, John!” Mary said.

The next day, Mary ran into one of John's drinking buddies on the street Corner. The man chuckled leeringly and said, "John won the prize the other night at the pub with a toast about you, Mary."

She said, "Aye, he told me, and I was a bit surprised myself. You know, he's only been in there twice in the last four years. Once I had to pull him by the ears to make him come, and the other time he fell asleep".
