Photo - Alan Booth Clearances

Remember the driver who managed to squeeze through an impossibly tight gap to get past me earlier in the week? The one to whom I should be grateful for not actually hitting me ?

At the time, due to the feeble flash on my Blackberry, I couldn’t get a decent photo to record the details of the vehicle (other than the numberplate . . .). But thankfully I saw it parked up on Whitley Road today, and so could record the vehicle, so that if you see it, you’ll know to keep out of the way:

I don’t know if there’s something wrong with my camera though - I could have sworn that the writing on the side of the van didn’t look like that when I took the photo.

Strange.

    There’s a lot of it about. Had to bring my van to almost a standstill this afternoon to avoid a head-on with one of those bullying twats as he made no attempt to slow down to pass a horse rider so closely that his vehicle touched the rider’s boot. Horse and rider showed no concern. Must be an everyday event to them. Yet another sign of a sad, sick civilisation in the last stages of decline.

    Love the photo, by the way. Recommend you make a print and post it to the company owner with suitable explanation.

    You think he’d be worried about damaging his paintwork.
