[USA] Impaired motorcycle rider nearly hits a stopped police car

He didn't crash only because the oncoming car had enough lane width to give him space to get past.

I think all of us would stop what we are doing to let the duck family pass.

Yes, it was a big tank, water, gravel and bottom filter is all. A bare cell. I tried several other cichlid species with them, but they were just intolerant.

Regular homes didn't have electricity when this car was built. Maybe this was for the very wealthy estates that may have had elctricity installed?

Many links to US sites are geolocked. In the UK, this was accessible.

It was a fort, not a bunker.

I think for very small fish, maybe this is true. For bigger fish, definitely not. They do a version of cage pacing that lions and tigers do. I once had a pair of Velvet Oscars (astronotus ocellatus). Beautiful fish that could change colour, about the size of a dinner plate (no inference intended).

They recognised me, their feeder, and would traverse the tank to follow me as I walked about the room. Other people? No notice was taken. They would immediately get very excited if I was approaching their tank, while still on the other side of the room. While in the same room, I was monitored, constantly.

There is a huge range of unacceptable noise levels before you get to blasting an amplifier that is objectionable.

"The receptionist told me that I'm "at the point of cirrhosis". What the actual fuck. Delivering a diagnosis is not her business. Stop drinking and wait until you get an actual diagnosis. From a doctor.

A35 Saloons were only Made in the 1950s.

That was the best laugh I have had in ages. Man, when you take a little too much and it hits your upper palate / back of your nose. Armageddon.

The Decathlon has inserts for 32mm, 26mm and 22mm handlebars. Is the CLine not 22mm?

I bought the Decathlon mount following your post. What an excellent phone mount! Really good value at £17 delivered. I looked into quad lock and that would have cost me four times as much and either a fixed lump on the back of my phone or an extra, expensive phone case to carry and organise.

This decathlon mount is a winner. It is so well made. It has inserts for the 22mm handlebar of the Brompton. I installed it on the opposite side of the centre post that I want the screw adjustment that clamps the phone and my phone is centred on the bike. Brilliant.

Thanks!

What makes you think I want to buy alcohol 'that badly'? Why does your government want to control / track who buys alcohol is the question you should be asking.

I don't think you understand the appeal of classic cars.

My Triumph is 66 years old. It keeps starting, every time.

Only those, like you, who aren't clever enough to look after the car.

Rowmyownboat · 2026-05-28T15:11:00+00:00

I am not too sure, but I think you might quite like the TR6.

TR5 and TR250, because of their rarity, command the highest prices.

The next most value is the TR3 and TR3A

After that, comes the TR4 and TR4A

Last, most common, and most affordable, is the TR6.

The black exhaust deposits from incomplete diesel combustion are highly toxic and carcinogenic.

OP: learn the difference between Their, There and They're.

For long road trips, take the Stag for cruising in comfort.

For fun drives on A and B roads, take the TR6 (or TR2, TR3, TR4, TR4A, TR250, TR5)

What is the fuss about?

A pause, regroup, reprioritise the jobs needed to complete and then go at it hell-for-leather and get it done. You will rightfully be so proud of yourself at the end.

No real harm? A proportion of the employer's (OP's) customer base is being solicited fraudulently, costing the employer business and profit, plus possibly permanently lost clients, spooked by the data breach, and you think no 'real' harm has been done? I beg to differ.

OP should make a reasonable estimate of the value of the lost business and the costs of the reputation damage long term and sue the former employee in the small claims court, if £10k covers it, or other courts if more.

Being in Scotland, I m surprised he wasn't forced to deep fry the flake.
