had an extremely embarassing moment today in my white long wheel base transit van! well i was in southend(obviously dont know the place to well) and i was coming up a hill and got to the brow of the hill and come to a stop, the traffic split into 2 lanes left and right, i was just at the point where the traffic split into these 2 lanes, anyways i stopped behind this other white van and looked around the side of this van and saw the lights go red (must have been a good 2/300 yards away) so ive pulled the handbrake up and just sat there and waited. i then got the paper out and had a bit of a read(the sun is always an intellectual read !!) so after about 5 mins i thought this traffic is a bit slow must have been a shunt ahead????? well (bear in mind that traffic has now well and truly built up behind me,but not bibing) after another couple of mins i decided to look out of my window and to my disbelief i had pulled behind a PARKED transit van!!!!! i felt so :oops: so i just pulled away around the parked van and quickly shot off! never felt so embarresed in my life!!!!!!

ahh sounds so familliar, especially in the tranny bit!


Worst one for me was waiting at the traffic lights once for ages on red, got beeped a billion times and still didn't take the hint, thought they wanted me to go through a red, then this guy taps on my window, I was all ready in a huff to go mad at him for trying to make me move on a red when he says the lights have been green 3 times mate have you broken down? no I said? look they're on red...

Na mate its those lights there :shock:
