Debut 4 Posted November 21, 2018 Share Posted November 21, 2018 Wankpiece drivers again. Top of Bankhead Avenue at rush hour. Prik in a big motor thinks he can scream past everyone to take pole position on the outside lane at the roundabout. You have to wait until you’re further up before moving out because of traffic coming off the roundabout on the opposite side and blocking......what does the fud do? Gets in the road of a double decker coming down the other side. He’s now stuck between that and traffic on his inside while also holding up traffic behind the bus.... When he tries to move back in, he gets a blast of the horn from D4 and both barrels from the bus driver out the window. Utter moron. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I stay in Forrester Park now but what i’ll do sometimes is scoot around my old Calders stomping ground to the Calder Roundabout. At at least it keeps moving with the lights and then I cut through the industrial estate down to the bottom of Bankhead. Long short cut but it at least keeps me moving when Calder Road is rammed from one end to the other.

He had 10 holer Doc Martens, tight ripped jeans turned right up, white t shirt and braces.

I'm more of a Mod dresser, so it would probably be the shoes for me but for some reason I've always wanted oxblood ten hole docs.
