Hollins post at 06.50 in the morning. About tucking your shirt in. No comment.
However, to a more serious subject. Providing we are car drivers we have all experienced barefaced stupidity of other drivers. I've certainly come across plenty in 70 years of "professional" driving. Early on illegally. But today I've come across a new one. Didn't think it possible.
This morning, on the Llandudno prom heading towards the Orme. In a stream of 20 mph traffic. I heard it first. The well known notes of an emergency service vehicle. After a moment or two I spotted it, an ambulance heading the same way as me. Watching in the mirror I saw cars behind me pulling in until, I'm next. Theres a space on the left. I shoot in, the ambulance flies past, maybe 30 or 35 mph and I had hardly stopped moving so went to go back out into the traffic flow when--- +++k, a quick glance in the offside mirror and there is a car right up behind the ambulance going at the same fast (but possibly legal} speed. And about two inches off the front O/S wing of my car.Mature male driver. Mature female passenger. I carried on pulling out behind them and thinking "perhaps they have got a family member inside the Ambulance'. Making excuses for them. I have twice in my life driven behind an ambulance in an emergency with one of my daughters inside, so I know how it feels. Correct driving is not a high priority.
Up to the cenotaph, the ambulance turns left towards Mostyn Street. The car turns right towards the pier entrance. Oh dear, has he lost his way? Like hell. He had spotted a vacant parking space in front of the hotels on the left. And thats true. About 09.45. Hope its not any of our members.
