Re the Fish on the back...It seems to allow the driver to be in any lane they like without any warning whatsoever.

I think it's to indicate they are 'born again' (second time lucky?) and they get away with it because they have a god on their side?

The world is a tragedy to those who feel, but a comedy to those who think.

Agree with the red flag thing but also have noticed that an abstract fish stuck to a boot signifies that a driver cant go above 20mph. |
It also means that they must stop at giveway signs even if the road is clear. If you look carefully you can observe the driver. Head remains looking straight ahead as they pull up at the juction, roundabout etc. Once the vehicle is stationary then they look to see if it is clear.

Yeah, but they dont stop for stop signs. By the behaviour of there driving looks like they drink like a fish before getting in the car. At least drink drivers are aware that they're pished and cant drive. problem is that a lot of drive nice new 3 and 5 series. Gives us a bad name, dont u think?

You should have seen the footy hooligans in Tunisia.
I'm sounding like my father now, but they were an absolute disgrace, they actually made me ashamed to be wearing an England t shirt.
I watched our final game in the German sector, along with a lot of other English chaps with children.
A bit of banter, a few glasses of grog, and even though they wanted England to lose they were friendly, well behaved, and even shook our hands after the game.
Its not the sort of behaviour I normally see, but after seeing them in action, in a foriegn country, wearing the flag of st george, I can begin to see why I was taking flack for flying the flag on my car !
