I really like Facebook, but then, I have no problem blocking folks that piss me off. I've got some nice old pics from there and a few of my "friends" are actually friends.

Same here.  What annoys me are the people that use it like a diary.
1 min ago - woke up
2 min ago - going to put kettle on
3 min ago - putting milk in the cup
3 min ago - putting sugar in
etc etc etc

Ive got family members (not close) that ive unfollowed due to them posting every 30 seconds.

If only there was a way to block the stupid pictures like 'like in 3 seconds if you wish cancer didnt exist'  Yes i wish cancer didnt exist but liking a post wont make it happen.  These people should spend the time raising money into research

Chesterfield Discussion / Re: 20 MPH Speed limits to our villages

Its illegal to use a hand held phone while driving - people still do it.
The speed limit is 70mph on a UK motorway - people will still go faster.

Reducing the speed to 20mph, the only difference will be some new signs.

ok so if you could go straight ahead, why would they put a pedestrian area with bollards in the way?

Personally I think it should only be used for emergency services, not taxis for a shortcut.  If you see the amount of people there that cross when the lights are on green, i think you might agree that it was dangerous.  To go the correct route only takes about 30 seconds more.

Plus there are 2 traffic lights showing a left arrow on a blue background.  I cant see any arrows pointing straight on.

I still stand by my original post.

Why should a taxi driver be reported for using his initiative and taking the shortest route? Top marks to him I say. Leave the chap alone and delete the video - this is why I hate dash cams, they turn their owners into self-appointed traffic police.

The shortest route is fine, if its legal.  This isnt.  It is clearly marked on the road he came from that its left turn only.

Caught this on my dash cam today and was wondering your opinions on if you think it was dangerous.  The road where it came from is left hand turn only, no traffic is permitted to do what he did.  Its quite regular that pedestrians cross when the lights are on green but thankfully it was fairly quiet.  I have the footage, car reg and licence number which I wont post here but im tempted to send it to Sheffield Taxi Licencing.  What do you think?

Im happy to post the video for a better opinion but it will take a while to upload.

Very sad day on its final weekend.

But it will still fast-taxi at Doncaster Airport and you can still go and see her in her new home.

Sadly Pam, this year will be the final year and its not all down to just funding.

BigDave, you can always go to Doncaster Airport for take off and landings, im there most weekends.  Seen her at least 8 times in the past couple of months, with more trips planned.  Old Bawtry Road if you're interested.

General Discussion / Vulcans last ever flight
« on: September 02, 2015, 09:22:19 PM »
Nothing official yet but its rumoured to be 18th October this year.  And another rumour is she will be escorted by 9 red planes plus another Avro.  Just to reiterate, these are RUMOURS.

The weekend before, a planned North/South tour is supposed to be happening but they need £75000 in total funding for it, so im asking, if you go and see her flying please donate - even if its only a couple of quid.

I will post more when its confirmed.
