Drove to Brixham & back yesterday (400miles - 7hrs) and as is my wont,to eleviate the boredom of Motorways I set the satnav to take me across country for part of the journey ( hood down etc).Is it me getting older and less bolder but I keep meeting idoits who seem to think that they can drive down lanes at 30 -50 mph without any regard for other traffic? Its probably me so i take it very easy indeed on this part of my journey.
Wonderful scenic route from Andover to Hungerford (Highland cattle & Buffalo at one point (in a field!)) yesterday,and managed to avoid most of the hairbrained locals . Imagine my face when aroung a corner on a VERY narrow lane comes a HUMMER + SHEEP TRAILER at about 30mph!!!
If anyone knows of this person (can't be many with this combo) can they tell them from me that they are an idiotic T**t
This is the widest "car" on the road and didnt slow down one bit!
I had to take to the verge and it missed me by inches (or less!)
Nevertheless I can thoroughly recommend using the Satnav on "shortest /No Motorway" setting and enjoying your driving. Its suprising that while the main roads are chocker, the little roads can be a real pleasure (subject to the heartstoppers above)
