Good job he didn't say that to me in person, some crazy Scottish blokes lacking any sense of humour may have taken offence. You know how sensitive they are to words and shit.
. get you. maybe i was the one being a tad rhetorical there. maybe i should ask an expert. you must know a specialist or two loz?.
https://www.collinsdictionary.com/dictionary/english/irony A slightly incomplete definition of the word, you'd do better using a different on-line dictionary. Mind you, finm, "slightly incomplete" is your middle name! Specialist <> Expert, by the way. If you specialised in language, you'd know this : o )
Pick me up something nice when you go on your shopping expedition to the dump! Or better yet - don't!
I give up with this country... the infrastructure is knackered. Nowhere else do they do this kind of nonsense. Along with the war-on-motorists and the hysterical braying of the media about SPEED or CRASHES or whatever else we're supposed to be frightened of today, it's just onerous. We've now got Operation Stealth in Lincolnshire to "crack down on bikes"... FFS they'd be more impactful cracking down on crap driving. Mobile picnics, speeders in 30 zones, middle lane hoggers and people who cannot put their phones down are apparently all fine with the Police, going by how much effort is put into enforcing these things compared to perhaps 200-300 bikes zipping about in national speed limit zones. Stick as many speed vans and cameras as they like in 30 / 40 zones for me, that's where people live and where kids and cats and dogs are scampering about, it's where dozy motorists stop / turn without warning or indication and it's where bikes can actually be kind of annoying. They could even put mobile vans where they've gravelled, as people in Audis and Range Rovers do not give a damn about keeping to the speed limits in chipped areas, putting bikes at risk and firing chippings here there and everywhere. But no... bikes riding well in the sunshine on fast A roads and sweeping country roads are the real peril. It must be speed, it must be... because enforcing bad driving is hard and can't be automated. So let's demonise progress. Let's insist that safety is the imperative and that if everyone just slows down then nobody will be harmed. Freedom? What freedom?
F*ck! here's me thinking driver Stig was Damon Hill & Finm was Barney - but all the time Finm was The Stig! So Damon must be Barney which means the Dump bloke can only be Trump!
