i was fine, really - the point of the thread was just to point out that there are some decent people out there and coppers are sometimes about when you need them

Well done to the Copper and well done to the White Van Man.

Well done to you for staying calm and predicting that he might pull out. Stay safe.

Ever seen the pakistani driving test (not being racist) i know what your implying Lozzo

You're right Stenno, I'm afraid its the one thing that flips my switch on the road. If I make a mistake and someone has a go at me I say sorry, if they mistake and for instance cut me up and wave a hand sorry I shrug my shoulders and let it go. If I think I'm in the right and they have a go, bang red mist and trouble. In this incident for suzukiness I'm sure I would have ended up getting the attention of the copper. Well done Ness, keeping cool is cool. Ooh that last bit sounds hippy.
