The grown ups are in charge again!

I’ve not had any outcomes back from ASPolice Roads Policing (RPU) since 2/8/24, with reports outstanding since July. Have resources been diverted to review riot footage as reported on BBC Bristol today?

Great parody account. Loses points though for not including the alliterative “lout” after “Lycra”.

“As if” doing a lot of heavy lifting here

Sad story of a scooter rider killed in Bristol last week. Overwhelming majority of comments on BBC Bristol Facebook group responded by advocating the banning of scooters. 🤦 facebook.com/share/MbzsCsub…

I had said there were 3 types of drivers that do close passes- the stressed, the unaware and the malicious. Recently added a 4th category- the entitled. Today I’m adding the 5th type - the genuinely stupid. “Of course I wasn’t too close to you, if I had been I’d have hit you”

This is powerful stuff.

I complained to the CEO of Lloyds on 27 December. Apart from a system generated email, I’ve heard nothing. Nothing! Things have changed

Complaining to the CEO of Lloyds is pointless. You get an automatic email which you can’t respond to, then…nothing. I contacted them in early January and have had no contact. Either they are flooded with complaints or they simply don’t care. Time to switch after 38 years

Tell me you’re an idiot without saying “I’m an idiot”

Laughed out loud so much at David Baddiel trilogy over the past couple of weeks, more than I have in quite a while. Just what I needed, if you need a laughter boost, check it out
