Absolute scum.
That reminds me of a time some years ago when I was stationary at the head of some red traffic lights in the offside lane of a carriageway that had a central pelican crossing reservation thing.

Ambulance came shrieking up. It couldn't get through unless I moved. I had nowhere to go other than mounting this central reservation thing. So I did.

The ambulance got through.
I then tried to reverse back onto the carriageway, only to find that some plonker, obviously not concentrating, had moved forward into my place!

So there I was, stuck half on this central reservation, blocking pedestrians who needed to cross, and unable to see when the lights changed.

The horn on my car sounds like Alan Carr eating a sandwich. I must replace it for something more..... macho.

Annoying isn't it. Ten years ago I would have answered 17 and twenty years ago, 27.

I put it down to the fact that they have changed everything I learnt about.

Here's a little tip ST!

Record the show.

Learn all the answers.

Then play it back when the visitors come round!

They'll be impressed.

(Not that I would do it, of course!)

Sometimes I see the same quizzes repeated on +1 and I still can't get the answer.

Tenable is rubbish. All that work for nothing. Might as well go down the pub instead.

Your popularity is not waning at all, Puggles. Not with me anyway!
