It’s almost like 65 years ago Velocette predicted what 21st century roads in Great Britain would be like…
(Ps read all about the Velocette Viceroy 250 scooter in @ScooterNova magazine edition 44, out next week. Use the link to order your mag: https://t.co/jIPdZFYJBO)

@LeShuttle_Help This afternoon however everything has ground to a halt… :-(

[Andy Gillard @scooter_andy]

I don’t often use @LeShuttle Channel Tunnel and sad to say when I do their rate of failure always seems to increase. 😞 @LeShuttle_Help I should have listened to an old tour manager of ours and stuck to the Cross Channel ferries…#alwaysdelays #lambretta #eurolambretta

@drummerwhitey How do I get in touch with Liz Steve?
Cheers, Andy @ScooterNova magazine

A rare Vespa imported into the UK that we recently photographed for an article in a forthcoming edition of ScooterNova magazine. It is also up for auction next week, if you fancy something a little different. https://t.co/JTOC8bkzUr

A nice cool ride this evening…

[Andy Gillard @scooter_andy]

No comment @westoncollege ? Does this mean you find dangerous driving acceptable?

[Andy Gillard @scooter_andy]

@westoncollege your driver currently driving kids through Notts and Derbyshire needs to have his licence removed or at least learn to drive. When the vehicle in front is indicating to turn right he should not overtake it, endangering the other vehicle and his passengers. Idiot!!

The brand new @ScooterNova magazine is at the printers. We’ve packed loads into edition 43: tasty scooters, interesting stories, a bit of tech & fabulous archive material. Pre-order today & it will be posted out directly to you from the printers next week! https://t.co/vibTzaNLPp

@mrmarksteel We did a gig there once and as a few people have suggested, we learned that due to pioneering research during WW2 into plastic surgery it is the leading place in the UK to go if you need it today.

[Andy Gillard @scooter_andy]

@Tesco Sending messages wont solve your problem, you need to put staff on checkouts. And when queues start, react by serving customers. Until then its the M&S foodhall that have better customer service (and better veg).

[Andy Gillard @scooter_andy]

@Tesco you are currently operating a staff ratio of 2 to 1 in the “self service” area while 8 people queue at just 2 open checkouts.
I will leave my basket here for you to re stack your own shelves :-(

@BritishGas how are you allowed to operate in such a shambolic way? Oh yes, back handers to those in high places! Call centre finally admitted previous advisors gave false info, two using false names! You still have my money and no idea what is happening to the bills!! Thieves

[Andy Gillard @scooter_andy]

Time to begin clearing out your shed or start writing a shopping list…

@ThreeUKSupport I would have more success raising the dead than get through to you by phone! I keep receiving bills that live chat tell me to ignore. Advice to ‘ignore’ bills is hardly professional is it? A letter stating ‘account closed nothing to pay’ is how professional companies do it.

[Andy Gillard @scooter_andy]

@ThreeUK why is it so difficult to end a contract with you? And why is it so difficult to get your problems resolved with customer services? And why do you keep sending me invoices for money i don’t owe you? #fail #frustrating #ThreeUKwastesyourtime

[Andy Gillard @scooter_andy]

@ThreeUKSupport why is it so difficult to cancel a contract and to subsequently speak to staff and resolve problems when i need to sort out your mess? I keep receiving bills demanding money i do not owe! #shambles #fail #notmagic

[Andy Gillard @scooter_andy]
