Ok, today, Sunday the 1st, tooting along the A12 on my way back from tipping at Homebase Swindon RDC, I saw in the distance blue flashing lights on the opposite carrigeway. Not unusual you may think, but upon getting level with the lights it turned out to be Plod having pulled over a Transit van towing a trailer, again, not unusual until further inspection revealed the load…
AN OLD LADY IN AN ARMCHAIR !!!
Someone please tell me I wasnt seeing things. It was about 2PM around about the junction with the A130.
That just had to be his mother-in-law! ![:laughing: :laughing:](https://emoji.discourse-cdn.com/twitter/laughing.png?v=12)

I heard Jeremy Clarkson talking about speed.
He was defending driving at speed and said;
“Speed may kill, but at least you can visit your mother in law without staying the night” ![:wink: :wink:](https://emoji.discourse-cdn.com/twitter/wink.png?v=12)
lmao! I was down south recently and spotted about six cows stood on the back of a flatbed - obviously they were plastic or concrete or something but made me look twice… then chuckle, they’d been arranged pretty randomly so looked quite realistic ![:laughing: :laughing:](https://emoji.discourse-cdn.com/twitter/laughing.png?v=12)
