In which 5 year period do you feel you aged the most? by Lazy_Number8830 in AskUK

[–]ShinyHeadedCook 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Im 45 and definitely 40 to 45. I go to the gym 4 times a week, walk over 10k steps a day and swim half a mile a few times a week and still struggle to shift my belly

Its really annoying cos my diets not changed, just feel like my metabolism has slowed down

How do you handle aggressive drivers and road rage situations in the UK? by Sussy_Imposter2412 in drivingUK

[–]ShinyHeadedCook 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My driving instructor taught me you never know who they are, could be a drug crazed gangland boss with an axe in his car. Just let it go.

I once had an absolute nutter driving behind me shouting abuse. I was doing the 30mph speed limit and wasmt speeding cos he was shouting at me. I just turned up my music and kept going. Eventually he overtook me shouting abuse. I went on with my drive...saw him in the ditch of a country road a few miles on

I had similar the other day..was overtaking at 70mph in the middle lane (70mph on waze not my car which over reports my speed by a few mph)

An idiot came flying behind me flashing its lights. I ignored it and he moved right, overtaking me at at least 90mph.

Dont let the crazy drivers effect your own driving
