Astonfields Road is currently closed from the Lotus lights end, whilst some blokes slap some tarmac in the models of the Grand Canyon there.

I admire your faith in their intelligence.

How can a senior police officer be so lacking in intelligence to wear a Falklands War medal despite being fifteen years old at the time of that conflict ?

And now back to the subject of Stafford Traffic.

Depends on medal placement surely. One side represents a father or mother I believe.

So he only has his father's or mother's then, none he's earned himself.

This is the generally accepted rule in the UK

The medals awarded to a deceased service/ex-service person may be worn on the right breast by a near relative. Near relative is Mother, Father, Sister, Brother, Wife, Husband, Daughter, Son or Grandchild.

And maybe he didn't know his left from his right.

He has "earned" these five ;

On driving Queensway towards the Gaol Square island, the traffic people have put signs up to tell people which of the 2 lanes they need to be in.

Right lane for Gaol Road
Left lane for A34 to Cannock - *facepalm*

It's surprising how many drivers take the middle lane at the lights by cafe Nero and then push across into the right hand lane heading towards Foregate when it is their lane that has been coned off.

I had an irate driver waving and swearing at me this morning when he came from the left lane (signed as A34 Cannock) into my lane and nearly side swipe me.

Hopefully the signs will reduce this happening.

I miss the ‘ use both lanes for Telford ‘ sign

Was such fun straddling and shrugging at the same time

 

[Trumpet]

Jeez, it's ages since I had a decent straddle and shrug.

You obviously don't get out too much do you @Trumpet but when you do I reckon you can't half straddle and shrug your shit?
