thank morgan freeman I dont have to touch my dataservers

2020-01-29 23:02:45 UTC  

with DC work its less horrible as thats done in the car, but you have to run the gauntlet of 253 speed cameras and limits that vary every 200 yards

2020-01-29 23:03:35 UTC  

i think i may have picked up 3 points earlier this week - i was too busy paying attention to a nutter and not the sudden 50 -> 30 cut with immediate cameras

2020-01-29 23:03:58 UTC  

speed cameras are entrapment imo

2020-01-29 23:04:08 UTC  

its almost like they want to force people to use pub transport

2020-01-29 23:04:14 UTC

2020-01-29 23:04:41 UTC  

imagine if it was convenient and went to the places you need

2020-01-29 23:05:04 UTC  

and didnt cost a ton for a decent seat

2020-01-29 23:05:32 UTC  

on these visits i usually dont get to leave until about 10-11pm. sometimes there are no trains, at all. or you get 'lucky' with the 2:15 long haul that stops everywhere

2020-01-29 23:07:26 UTC  

speed enforcement here is handled too punitively, honestly. some of the positioning is just dirty

2020-01-29 23:07:46 UTC  

and the punishment often too severe

2020-01-29 23:08:14 UTC  

I'm glad I'm immune to points getting docked

2020-01-29 23:09:11 UTC  

im pretty happy with the average cameras - you have to be basically disregarding the limits to get done by those, a small slipup or overtaking someone quickly isn't going to land you in hot water

I got a ticket once when accidentally driving though a bus lane in cambridge

2020-01-29 23:09:56 UTC  

hahaha

2020-01-29 23:10:04 UTC  

sneaky buggers

2020-01-29 23:10:04 UTC  

sorry - theyre absolute fascists in cambridge

2020-01-29 23:10:35 UTC  

there are lots of sneaky places they hide extensively deployed vans etc

2020-01-29 23:11:13 UTC  

they especially like long roads which have limits that are lower than they need to be and which have low traffic / no pedestrians, because they're more likely to catch people

2020-01-29 23:11:24 UTC  

they also hide behind SUVs, vans, trees, etc

2020-01-29 23:11:51 UTC  

If there's a camera van in my town it's all over the local facebook group in about 5 minutes. Not that that would help if you're already driving or from out the area

2020-01-29 23:13:06 UTC  

i remember when they rolled out average speed cameras i thought it was pretty shitty, but now ive seen that they calibrate them for 55+ in a 50 (for example) you really have to just be cruising along persistently above the limit. so thats fine with me

2020-01-29 23:13:18 UTC  

There's a long sweeping bend that's slightly downhill and has a section with no trees that they like parking part way round here, or half way down one of the 2 steep hills leading in/out

2020-01-29 23:13:37 UTC  

yeah downhills are a favourite

2020-01-29 23:46:32 UTC  

That country isn't even in the EU.

2020-01-29 23:48:47 UTC  

@PureEvilPie Friday is the day you choose where your loyalties are.

2020-01-29 23:51:50 UTC  

As dual loyalties are a conflict of interest, mine lay with the realm of the United Kingdom and not with some inferior parody of the Frankish Empire.

2020-01-29 23:57:21 UTC  

that one cuck who says ireland will do shit about England leaving the EU is just some throwaway puppet, right? How do irish people actually feel about it?

2020-01-30 00:14:45 UTC  

You guys going to the party in London friday?

2020-01-30 00:17:19 UTC  

I think the EU should be rebranded as the Soyviet Union.

2020-01-30 00:22:27 UTC  

Agreed

2020-01-30 00:23:35 UTC  

Now all we need to do is get rid of the hate speech law and will be in clear skies.

2020-01-30 00:24:03 UTC  

Soy laws need to be removed

2020-01-30 00:24:09 UTC  

Yeah

2020-01-30 00:25:31 UTC  

All I like to hear about is Boris news. So unpredictable. The only reason I still look at politics right now.

2020-01-30 01:42:03 UTC  

hasn't really hit me yet but it does really seem boris got brexit done

2020-01-30 01:58:47 UTC  

i don't know nothing about this Boris guy other than the smear campaigns that the MSM conducts on him. At this point if the MSM smears someone, that just means they're cool in my book

2020-01-30 02:02:59 UTC  

Yeah its sad its like that way.
