My day couldn't have gotten worse!

Got nabbed by the talivan on the start of the Chapelizod bypass as far as I know. I was too busy watching the road whilst moving into the overtaking lane and I reckon I was doing 55 in the 40 zone (I know everything is in clicks nowadays!)

Had to work through lunch yet again and didn't get eating all day until about 4:30 when I went to supermacs on O'Connell St. Half way through a chicken fillet burger, wasn't there a poxy blonde hair stretching from the burger to my mouth!  [At least it was a straight hair.]

Then on the way home doesn't some *********** fiesta L-driver decide to think about putting me off the road on the Chapelizod bypass (no talivan in sight!) - a fairly empty dial carriageway and they decide to quickly move into the overtaking lane just as I'm about to pass them. At least my anchors work!

Anyway sorry for moaning but just needed to get it off my chest!

Only one company (and its sub companies and brokers) ask for info about points. When getting a quote they ask for your drivers licence numebr and they check against the system.
I think this company tells us that under 4 is ok.

Still, I didn't want to lose my points virginity.

Thats a bummer of a day Killian...

On the upside,I was doing a bit of research into Supermacs and it appers they get rather unusual chickens for their burgers as you can see from the picture.Looks like the hair was from the bird and not the one who served you.

Do blondes really have more fun, just ask that bird . Class picture alright Richie. Is that some form of a gene mutation, or did some randy rooster have his wicked way

Yeah, com' on the Pool. Jesus, were did I put my Jerry and the Pacers CD. Bummer that Gerard is out for tonights game. Our only world class player in my opinion. Although if they give Baros a dose of nitrous that might help.
