    Aye even then if they aren’t used to it they just need to watch others driving, most of the time I think they are just being ignorant and * folk off on purpose.
    Been a few times I just get to the stage of flashing them until they get the message :giggle1:

    Aye that annoys me, especially on the roads I drive its usually tourists slwoing down for the views or something, dangerous as *.

    WhatsApp moaning tae * about me swiping it away, saying how it’ll stop giving me notifications if I keep doing it.

    It’s acting like an unreasonable bird ffs.

    Tinder doesn’t give me that * when I swipe it away. Tinder don’t give a *!

    Are you talking about the A82 Glencoe road by any chance? :giggle1:

    Lost count of the amount of times I’ve came round a corner going downhill fully loaded and some * thinks it’s acceptable just to sit with hazards on so they can take pictures of a hill

    Its that road but for me its the A82 through Tarbet onto A83 to the Rest and Be Thankful, always between there and Inverary folk are crazy slowing down for the scenery and pictures :giggle1:

    Drove round through Crainlarich and that before because of diversions, some awful parts of that road as well.
    Must be a nightmare for lorry drivers round those roads.

    Yes it is a bit of a nightmare, I do regular runs to Oban/Bonawe fort William etc can never really relax, squeaky * time on a few corners meeting other vehicles/ logging trucks going flat out etc.

    Lovely road in a car when you can relax a bit right enough and don’t have to worry about losing your mirrors :giggle1:

    Have you ever crashed, in a truck?

    As in a right proper crash? No.

    The only car I’ve ever hit is I bumped someone up the * at a roundabout as they went to go and then slammed on the brakes.

    Lost a couple of mirrors and have had a few scrapes and bumps with bollards/walls/trees/kerbs/building sites etc but that’s part and parcel of the job.

    Edit: had many a close call of being involved in some horrific crashes as in very likely fatal but touch wood.

    I’ve seen the aftermath of many though

    Oban road is a total * hate it with a passion, not surprised mate I wouldn’t fancy driving the roads in a big van nevermind a lorry.

    Aye when the roads are quiet they are a cracking drive.

    Ricky Gervais' new radio show. Was excited when I heard he was making it but so far it's been hours of him and his mates explaining why being an athiest evolution believer makes them superior to everyone else whilst at the same time complaining that everyone is stereotyping them as people who think they're superior.

    Not religious by any stretch but * me he's a *.

    All this editing of photographs.

    Its not about taking a good picture anymore , it's more about how good you are at editing.

    Disliking someone now as a pundit that I loved as a player.

    Damien Duff is probably one of my favourite players of all time but he has his head up his own hole and talks an unholy amount of * on RTE.

    I think Brady is the only one who talks any real sense, and even then he's not exactly great. But yeah Duff has came across very poorly every time he's been on.

    Last night on the Ireland game he was talking about how under Trapattoni they played a similar style of football but they ‘knew what they were doing and we’re good at it’.

    I don’t want to be overly critical of Trap now as I thought he did a good job overall, but that Ireland team had the likes of Duff himself, Keane, Dunne and Given in their primes. This team doesn’t have that quality and yet we are every bit as good as that team defensively at the moment and are a home leg against Denmark away from our first World Cup and second consecutive major tournament.

    People think the England managers get it tight from their national media but * me I think ours get it every bit as bad if not worse.

    Dunphy's by far the worst, I think he believes we should be playing similar football to the way City play under Guardiola. :giggle1:

    MON's performed miracles, it's crazy how limited most of our squad truly is I mean Christie, Randolph, O'Dowda and Murphy are all English Championship players why do they think we're capable of playing expansive attacking football? Also the obsession with Hoolahan is bizarre, I mean he's 36 for starters, sure there's games where he's useful like at home vs lesser sides, but he'd be pretty pointless in games where we're without the ball for large periods against teams with greater quality than us.

    My uncle went to the homeless world cup years ago and they trained with the Irish national team. He said Duff was the only one that was a * head to them and wasnt happy they were there.
