    Do they have any jurisdiction if they zap you whilst you are speeding thru their small hamlets?

    They are out in my local village nearly every day no matter what the weather, i am often tempted to wind my window down and shout "get a life" but don't know how i stand, i have seen them writing down peoples registrations as they clock them - but what happens next?

    Its easy enough mate. Dont fooking speed thru our villages or any where else for that matter.

    Im all in favour of driving above the limit where sensible to do so. Within small villages where dodery old pensioners live is not my definition of where sensible to do so. If you are speeding through residential areas you deserve what you get.
    Guests are requested not to feed the vampires.

    I am gross and perverted.
    Im obsessed and deranged.
    I have existed for years but very little has changed.
    Im the best you can get, have you guessed me yet?

    exactly want to drive like a twat go to the middle of nowhere so nobody else is bother by your stupid behaviour .
    tearing through lanes and villages is just bloody stupid
    On a Hot morning in cyprus I found the meaning of anger. Fortunataly I was comftably numb.
    The RSM and various other NCO's seemed very agitated.
    maybe they should look into counselling?

    Drive past slowly with your windows down and car sound system thundering out some bangin' choons - that will drive em up the wall!

    In the career of glory one gains many things; the gout and medals, a pension and rheumatism....all of these fatigues experienced in your youth, you pay for when you grow old. Because one has suffered in years gone by, it is necessary to suffer more, which does not seem exactly fair.

    How do I get a job like that? I am a pensioner and would love the POWER that the hi vis jacket will give me.

    Never mind the one fingered salute - nothing less than the full nazi salute will do

    Just think of it, the neighbour says hello and one replies "Yeh, great day mate. BTW that will be another 3 points on your licence". Ahhhh bliss.
