@ferafestiva23 @IsSaddleThereIs I hired a car for my first road trip around Scotland so no - you don’t have to own a car. The difference is, there’s not 12 million people living there.

@tomasmcguinness @CBikeLondon Not a lot of chance of knocking someone down on a motorway but big chance of massive pile up and many more deaths.

@BrightLitegames @WarksCyclist How do you make an evasive manoeuvre when you have already passed the driver. The driver must have been looking for traffic driving on to the roundabout to have driven straight into the cyclist. If the driver was looking where they were going, the cyclist would have been seen.

@DuncanStott @tonybrett I commute 2 work at 5am - I don’t like playing with traffic. If at a red light x-ing with no bods, I will ride thru. I will always stop at jnctns. Feel safer being ahead of a driver where I know they have seen me.

@robinjones78 @francesca_kms The kids are learning vital life skills.

[helen capamagian @hels67]

@robinjones78 @francesca_kms Drivers are usually more careful when driving around kids. We had to get from Charing X to Paddington via Parliament Square to catch a train for our cycling holiday. Our boy was 5. I was terrified but all traffic stayed well away.

@swallowmosaics @crabsclaws @theJeremyVine I don’t think you get what I’m saying either so let’s just leave it there. There’s more than one way to see something. I see things lots of ways - not just the one. Not everyone is innocent - not everyone is guilty. Some people take advantage of- fact.

[helen capamagian @hels67]

@swallowmosaics @crabsclaws @theJeremyVine I get what you’re saying - I just don’t wear rose tinted glasses. There are people in the world who take advantage. Lots of them.

@Mathe_Musician @lady_cattington @crabsclaws @theJeremyVine What if the disabled person isn’t in the car. My friend used to have a go at her husband for abusing the badge. As for those running to court, this may be prejudice but they looked like the defendants.

[helen capamagian @hels67]

@lady_cattington @crabsclaws @theJeremyVine Talking about abuse of blue badges - unless I’ve gone and replied to the wrong thread again. Using a blue badge when you can sprint to court is an abuse, isn’t it. I actually know people who have used the blue badge they have for a family member who isn’t in the car.

[helen capamagian @hels67]

@crabsclaws @theJeremyVine My dad saw a car park in a blue badge space (with badge). Dad and three sons got out and ran across the car park to the court house.

@LQcontactus Social media team seems a lot more effective than any other part of the laughable and questionable company. How on earth did any of you ever get jobs. We should have known when we were buying. Even your sales person was rubbish.

[helen capamagian @hels67]

@kamalgogan @LQcontactus Standard L&Q (laughable and questionable) practice. Get out if you can. They are the worst.

[helen capamagian @hels67]

Russell Simmons. Calls from Russell Simmons from L&Q to be ignored at all costs.

[helen capamagian @hels67]

@LQcontactus now even ceo Fiona F-S can’t do her job cos she can’t get staff to do theirs. Shed/gate issue of nearly 18 months still outstanding. If Russell Williams contacts you out of the blue to fix all yr problems, hang up - he’ll just make everything worse.

@Tracingpaper5 @SimonScarrow @therealmissjo On the same graveyard shift, I worked with the laziest white woman ever. Feet on the desk reading magazines while the supervisor wasn’t in the room. She was supervisors favourite though - what could you do?

[helen capamagian @hels67]

@Tracingpaper5 @SimonScarrow @therealmissjo I worked with a no. of black women in a typing pool. One was the laziest I know. Popped to the loo with the Sun under her arm. Told me if the supervisors did anything, she would play the race card. The other 4 on the graveyard shift were among the hardest workers I’ve worked with

@BeerBelly973871 @MikeyCycling I bet you’d appreciate this snitch if he saved your life or prevented serious injury. Upset drivers must be using their phones whilst driving. Otherwise, what’s there to be upset about?

[helen capamagian @hels67]

@nickprice153 @AlisonSandy4 @SteveAReformUK @wenvoe_wheelers When on single or narrow lanes, the car is always on the wrong side of the road. When 2 cyclists are heading towards you, they can go single file and just about pass but drivers get so enraged. Y don’t they get as enraged when it’s a car coming the other way and 1 has to reverse

[helen capamagian @hels67]

@NickyHaywo65566 @davesegment @theJeremyVine Clearly missed the word “conversing” in my reply - when they were in. Yes - better had move on.
