The French Way....

Heard this morning that the Council in Paris wanted to put a large stretch of buslane on the Boulevard Michelle (sp?).

here's the crunch - The Police Commisioner veto'd it as it would cause traffic chaos.

So there's one answer to the discussion the ABD have been having recently: Give the police power of veto over local regional and parish councils on changes to roads - bus lanes, speed limits etc.

Except bubblewrap man from North Wales, Ch Const. Richard Brunstrom who should be tarmacced over at the earliest opportunity.

No you'll have to use Roundup i.e. Agent Orange on him as weeds often come back through Tarmac!

[CarZee]

you are indeed correct

We can still have our fun with a jackhammer though, right?

Even better the physical exertion of using a large chisel and a hefty sledgehammer!!! Some real satisfaction in that, especially the squishy sounds during/after the event.........

Now you know how we feel when we see your chaps performing the Haka before a rugby match

[CarZee]

Thing about the Haka (all credit to the antipodean sheep fiddlers) is you know you're in the shit when you see it

[Dave_H]

D'you recon they use the Haka in day to day situations that tick you off like the queue in the Post Office being to long or the neighbours kid playing music too loud? road rage?

I'd love to in the UK, is there an evening class where you can learn it?

Now theres a good idea - adds a new meaning to the phrase "sleeping policeman"....
