Surely, your tea would have been even colder if you'd stayed in your meeting

I like to think it has got me a better price for the van on its disposal on Friday (even though the new one won't be here then).
Fortunately, I have a spare, waiting for the new van (don't bother, I only have the one spare).  I know mostdom gave his spare one away, but he only has an Audi, so he can transfer his by ripping the back window out. And I'm nothing if not mean (OK, I'm also fat, old, grumpy and Aaaaaaaaaaard).

I won't be ripping anything out of my audi even the sticker, as the spare one I have is waiting for the next incarnation or my silver audi. (not yet ordered, something about buying a new lorry or two.)
Still, notice how I have deceaved you about my lack of spare rear window adornment all this time! whooohahaha!

Oh, so the new van hasn't been delayed because of this vital optional extra?
Maybe it's been delayed until you get your e-mail, domain etc all sorted

What about another one, commonly found when there is a line of traffic waiting to leave by an exit, some git sneaks along the line and tries to sneak in at the front, but, being a non moving queue, he can't get in and he causes a queue in the other lane or people have to stop or swerve becuase he is sat in the lane! |

The real PITAs are all those people driving anything which isn't a Renault Kangoo van. Get rid of that lot and the streets would be far less busy, less dangerous, free-er moving and generally nice places for mostdom to play out in.

Oh no they won't. Those ain't Renault Kangoo vans, so the roads will look like this.

The roads already do look like that a lot of the time 
...must be all those people diving out of the way of Dennis' Kangaroo van.
At least the dealer has the right idea - delay the van and keep Dennis off our roads...how much did you pay that dealer mostdom?

Drivers with a 'built-in cruise control'...
...you know, the people you get stuck behind doing maybe 45-50 (at most) along a road with a 60 limit. Then you come to a 30 or 40 limit stretch and, whilst you're trying to stick to the speed limit, they speed away from you - seemingly still doing their 45-50

Lack of common curtacy. Just a simple wave for letting someone out, or even a nod for waiting to let someone through. Barging into the space infront of me even though it is just big enough for my breaking dstance and I have to break to remain safe, or just barging about from lane to lane junction to junction with no concern for other road users.
OTHER PEOPLE ARE DRIVING HERE!
