     Here's my motorway tips-
     
     Check your blind spot when changing lanes, very important!
     Don't hog the middle lane or outside lanes
     People are mental, remember that, as you'll notice it plenty on a motorway
     Play loud music

     
     
     Also, watch for lorries. If you drive a small car, they often cant see you. The first thing they will know about you existence is when they plough into you and flip you into the central reservation and back across 4 lanes of traffic into a ditch.

     
     
     I look forward to that
     
     I have a tiny 900cc fiat, so I don't think I'll be leaving the slow lane much anyway!
     
     
     It wasn't fun.
     
     I drive a 986cc Micra. it gets up to 90mph in the fast lane although my lawyer has advised me not to admit that.

     what can it do in the other lanes?

     Yeah:

     Re lorries: "if you can't see my mirrors i can't see you"
     As my mum says: "it doesn't matter how careful you drive it's the other people/idiots you have to watch out for"
     
     When overtaking on motorways give enough notice to other drivers before you change lanes, and something i tend to do when approaching motorway junctions is move out of the "slow" lane so traffic joining the m-way can filter in just makes it easier than having to do it when something is coming off the slip road.
     
     Have fun, i usually get lost when going to new places but that's part of the fun of it. This especially applies to city centres, with so many one way streets it's not hard but there's plenty of signs and ring roads so eventually you get right again.
     
     Map your route out; write down a simple list of the roads ( & junctions) you need to take so you can quickly refer to that if you forget, it's easier & safer than looking at a map while driving, writing it down help remember it i find.
     
     Oh and if you see a group of people at a bus stop watch for the suprise car reversing out of a drive.

   • Shrewsbury brought the ref with them last night, he was piss poor, gave us a peno but could have given us 3 more, and gave us a free kick from an in the box foul. We had more free kicks than them, but we had more players booked. Given we were 2-0 down i'm happy with the draw and the great fightback!
     
     Here's a great idea, an air freshener that people with really bad flatulence stick up there arse so when they fart it smells fresh. Someone kept farting at the game last night and they were fucking awful.
     
     Woke up at 8am this morning, that doesn't bode well for the rest of the day.

   • when i drive on motorways, i squish up my face to make it look like i'm downs/inbred then overtake dangerously and shock continental lorry drivers with my yokelised swearing of, "yield! yield!".
     
     yeah, but you probably already done it by now so i guess i'm kind of a five past midnight hero.
     
     ummm...this friday i beat the shit out of simon from black saXX on mortal kombat: armegeddon and we drank sailor jerry spiced rum.
     
     saturday: christina is grieving at somebody's bedside, so i had my customary "absent lady titty porn marathon" during which i noticed some pretty AGAINST THE LAW striations on crazy little rich (aka veiny v). i think i'll go skateboarding somewhere good and i may go to somebody's birthday this evening or i might just fuck it off. ain't decided yet.
     
     sunday: listen to dexys, have a fucking party.

    • I got agoraphobic in Sainsburys then went and rocked HARD. As I performed I was inspired by Mamba mouthing the words to Trebuchet Hits. I then ended up going into Bath and having some lazy beers. Sunday was relaxed.

    • shopped on saturday, got some awesome jeans. Went out on saturday, walked past the millenium wheel and onto trafalgar square, went to The intrepid Fox. Went onto friends flat and stayed up all night, had a lazy sunday then went to the pub again where we played a pool tournament against a hot random girl who completely hammered us. She also gave me the wink

      i assume you have her number and will be showing her a ruddy good time.
      
      new black saXX track:
      
      "RUDDY GOOD TIME"
      
      NEED TO MAKE YOU MINE
      GONNA SHOW YOU MY GOOD TIMES
      ('COS) GIRL YOU LOOK SO FINE
      GONNA BE A RUDDY GOOD TIME
      
      yeah?
      
      did you mention you were in black saXX. i reckon i managed to plait some panties with that bit of information this weekend.
    • [10:50 on 17/11/08]
13. • Jack
    • I should have mentioned the saXX, probably would have worked a treat. I feel i could probably see this girl again should I go to the same pub to play pool on a sunday evening, but she may have just been a wandering pool hustler
    • [10:53 on 17/11/08]
14. • bad admiral
    • you'll never see her again dude.
      
      she's obviously some kind of crazy pool fairy who will tear your heart to shreds.

    • [11:34 on 17/11/08]
