Of course climate change leads to different weather, however if rainwater has no where to go, that's what causes flooding.

Amazing how they have millions for cycle lanes that no body wants but can't pay to have drains cleared to stop roads being flooded.

The weather has always changed without human intervention which is why there was a thousand year ice age around 12,000 years ago and the Sahara was once covered by grass, trees, and lakes.

People walking on the side of the ring road, or trying to cross the ring road. So dangerous and pure laziness when there is a plethora of tunnels and bridges etc

That's mad, which part? It's harder to get on to it as a pedestrian than it is to cross by other means

I did it once after taking a wrong turn in an unfamiliar road layout. A police car passed me and never said a word!

People who love funerals and mourning.

"Going to the funeral of this bloke I said hello to once in the pub, well his dad's brother died and it's his funeral today"

Cunts.

Mental, I've never encountered pedestrians on the ring road.

I see it a few times. Mainly at that junction. Probably does not happen anywhere else.

Yesterday, I saw a guy in traffic going to join the ring road on one of those electric bikes!

It was mainly the junctions and the slip road where I've seen people crossing but i've also seen people walking down the side of the road aswell!

Shit/impatient drivers.

Was on a dual carriageway in the outside lane overtaking cars (and already doing ~5mph over the limit) when a van comes haring right up my arse and stars waving his arms, wanker gestures, moving to the left and right etc trying to get me to move. Can understand if you've been held up for ages but it was almost instantaneous. Just leave earlier you bellsniff.

Most people at the shops at Bannerbrook. If you fined everyone who didn't know how to park inside a bay a quid, you'd be a billionaire before the clocks change.

I don't think so. My old man uses his almost every day to get to the golf course, and never whinges about having to pay.

The replies said it is a cyclist blind spot refuge or a waiting spot to reverse direction.

Queing for the car wash today, sat behind a Range Rover - of course. Car that was in the car wash pulls out, Range Rover doesn't move.

Turns out there's no fucker in it. Rather than go into the shop first and then join the queue like a normal person they're obviously too important to wait so have parked in the queue and then gone into the shop so everyone had to wait for them to finally turn up before the queue started moving again.

They have the exact same thing at the bottom of the Allesley Old Road. The problem is that it isn't kept well and it's covered in moss and mud most of the time, so it's probably more dangerous than just stopping at the side of the road.

I buy alot of vinyl and cd's from fairs and charity shops.
Why do they use stickers for prices which don't peel off and just leave half stuck on the cover.
