My cat just bit me. On the eyebrow. I was asleep. I am now awake and by extension grumpy. Rhubarb and custard let fly with their secret weapon.

Sorry. That's my fault. I sometimes get my social justice warrior knickers in a twist and turn into a bit of a tw@t. Just ignore me. https://instagram.com/bentheoandrews

What is it with German car drivers, heading east on A14 yesterday, 3 times (1x BMW and 2 x Audi's) driving so close they could have obtained the rear door lock serial number? Two lanes of solid but moving traffic on outside lane having to do 55 mph (probably racing elephants) but these dickheads expect you to pullover to let them past with nowhere to go, WTF? Surely when you buy one of these vehicles you don't have have your frontal cortex removed? Jumped ship to reliability - Mitsubishi L200

I just wish someone would make BMW fit indicators to their cars as standard rather than fit as an optional extra. So many seem to leave the factory without the indicators fired.

In Norfolk we have a different indicator problem. Roundabouts. Right hand indicator flashing whilst exiting the roundabout; switching the left hand indicator on, the exit before you want to leave the roundabout; using the right hand indicator to go straight over the roundabout and the drivers who take the racing line across all lanes. This is fine at night when there is no one around, but 8.30 in the morning?

Speaking of indicators:

- yes, they are seldom used

- yes, they are incorrectly used on roundabouts

but

why are they incorporated into the headlight/DRL aperture and therefore even when they are used are not visible against the bright light next to them - VW golfs spring to mind. A case of design over function.G
