Things I Don't Like

Wait until A-Levels and higher Degrees, get's way more fun then....and Looooooooonger.

Yeah A-Levels were a big step up in terms of difficulty, and same for uni too (the 2nd and 3rd years anyway lol).

Good luck! Stay away from FOC, and study hard ;)

I second that, I definitely didn't study hard enough during A-levels and at uni, and I ended up with much lower results than I could have got.

Exactly! If I'm at a roundabout and people aren't indicating, I won't move.

I'm not budging unless I know exactly what people are about to do

I'm the same, but sometimes you can tell they're not turning right cos of how fast they're going (unless they have a death wish).

  • Things I dislike People that crash into your car why your stood inside the chippy then drive off and then when you put a claim in against them for the damages to your car try to say i pulled out on

No point, they can indicate and still stuff it up. I find people are very good at indicating left to go straight on, because they think they need to indicate at least one junction before.

^ or drive 57 miles up the M1 indicating right the whole way.

GCSE's, A-Levels, and Uni exams --> they are like a marathon. Very long and tiring, but you have to maintain pace and keep your eyes on the finish line, and the reward at the end.

I've just entered the final year exam revision period. The moment I finish, going to do some mods on my Focus, first thing first lol.

I remember when I did my law degree, long process but so rewarding at the end.

Actually, if someone isn't indicating on a roundabout then I often DO pull out, I make sure I'm not going to cause or be in an accident, however I make a point of how w**k someones indicating is if they pull that on me!

Ok, indicating every moment is not completely necessary, I mean if it's a dual carriageway and I'm coming up on a truck with no one around I might not bother indicating, but being in a city; albeit a small one, is just ridiculous to not bother indicating.

The fact my AC smells so bad I can't use it...and subsequently the location of the Mk2.5 Focus pollen filter!! <_<

I had been using it monthly since I got it, wrongly assumed that'd be often enough! I've been offered a car bomb at a reasonable price though so hopefully that should freshen it up! Just gotta choose between scents now... Theres another thing I don't like, choice and making decisions! :lol:

I like strawberry scents, a nice summer smell. go for that.

Yeh, mine smelled a little funky a while ago, I kept running it and the smell went away.....Either that or I'm used to it :lol:

Got one of those spray can things you leave in the car for 10 mins....

A scent for a car? Easy, new car smell ;)

^ Carcinogenic though iirc.

When I was 18 I bought one that smelled of skunk, I used to love the smell, caused immense grief when I got pulled though.

An air freshener that smelled of skunk? Yeah, yeah, sure we believe that... :P

Gonna go for citrus as that what my upholstery cleaner and dash spray smells of so might as well stick with the theme lol. Been told Poundland do those air con bombs for a pound (obviously...) so might give that a go seeing as it's so cheap lol.

I'm not a fan of new car smell btw...even on new cars! Just makes me feel ill tbh, used to get Black Ice magic tree's but haven't really bothered lately, I don't carry any passengers now and I can put up with my own smell...well most of the time haha. :lol:

...at first when I read "smelled of skunk" I thought, urgh gross...aren't they supposed to be extremely smelly animals...

Then yeh, I realised what you meant and now I agree with Tom! YEAH RIGHT!! An 'air freshener'

I've heard that one a few times.

Doesn't wash with me either.

I'm going on eBay for cannibas air freshener, wonder if I get ten of them in the car...

I would hope the pooches could tell the difference between lemon and weed lol

Haha, Yeh that would definitely be suspicion raising....

Might see if I can get some 'eau de jack Daniels" and see what the traffic cops reckon... Haha, silly really!

I have a Minion air freshner at the moment :D

Nah jd freshness is in fact bubble gum. Soak one in whiskey for a few days then hang it in the car you might get away with it lol

Smells of banana?

Must admit my don't like today or yesterday, is patience. I have no patience. Waiting for my parking fine to be overturned is damn near killing me.

Deadlines... Zzzzzzzzzz

It was genuinely an air freshener, was never that stupid, bought in Camden.

TIDL, not having any work to do, currently on notice now and just got naff all to do, wish I just got put on leave so I could get on with my new job. 3 weeks of this left, roll on 29/05.

Not being able to drive with the roof down this morning, bit nippy.

needing a wind breaker but for some reason it costs more from Honda than an engine probably would.
