    This has happened twice to me recently, last night being the latest:

    You are driving along a normal suburban road and you become aware of an emergency vehicle some way behind you. You check your mirror and see the blue light approaching and you indicate and pull over along with everyone else. Once the ambulance/fire engine/police car has passed you indicate to re-join the road expecting everyone to do the same. But no not these days. Other drivers see this as an oppotunity to gain some ground and treat it like the beginning of a Grand Prix and try to pull out in front of other cars that had pulled over ahead of them.
    Then even worse like last night, you get some silly cow, about 17 years old in her super dooper pink mini full of cuddly toys deciding to tail the ambulance at the same speed and nearly take out 5 or 6 cars that had pulled over and were attempting to get moving again.

    Age limit for drivers should be 25 for men and 35 for women.

    The bagpipe players outside Harrods.

    Love it when the tourists film them then walk off without giving them any money.

    Clear plastic strap bras.

    If you are that concerned about straps being visible, wear one without straps.

    I'll take heed of that.

    I've also noticed how a lot of pensioners are awful drivers. So I'd suggest an upper age limit. Or, perhaps better still, with a looming pensions crisis: everyone has to relinquish their licence on the day that they retire. That should please Mr Osborne, it'll keep people working 'til they drop ;-)

    People who think that because it is a mini-roundabout, that normal roundabout rules don't apply.

    I was going straight on at one last week and a woman was coming the other way but wanted to turn right. As we both moved off at the same time, all would have been fine had she gone around the middle of the roundabout like I did, but no she cut across the middle and then hooted and gesticulated at me, thinking I had cut across her.

    Old people's salads - just endless piles of lettuce and tomato. Why people of a certain age so devoid of imagination?

    Haha turned out negative, thankfully, for gallstones and a baby- turns out that's just a beer belly.
