How much damage do these drivers that get caught out going round tight corners, have to do untill the penny drops and they realise their not going round.

Hahaha!!! I don’t do fishing but I’ve got one hell of a bite here!!
it’s called a one toner in carp fishing fbb11! 
you’ve got the best fishing down there, that’s all what’s good about the south though and the M6 coming back to Manchester! 
Joking aside, all the roads off the A62 are at angles for that reason, you turn off or join the way you’re facing! It can’t be done! But as you’re being so stereotypical I’ll bring the horse and cart and me mates will be wearing flatcaps walking their whippets lad! more to the point, cockneys can’t drive! 
and what’s this it’s too cold■■? Southern, shandy drinking blouses who don’t like gravy on their chips■■? You’re 'AVIN A GIRAFFE! Lol! as the Macc lads sang " what’s a savaloy ■■? "
Paul/Wayne,
If your coming down the road from the A62 is there not a sign to tell you there is a turning circle further down (opposite the navigation) or is the a bus only turnaround?

I actually started my driving career delivering pallets to all the barracks in a rigid!!!
I spent 8 months travelling Asia and Australia last year and to be honest, most of the best people I met were northerners. Had a right laugh with them good times.

The turning circle you refer to, on the A670, is for access to the village of Diggle after coming down the hill from Huddersfield towards Uppermill or vic versa. This is about a mile and a half from the Wall Hill location were Stobart’s came to grief and was used regularly by HGV’s before Shaws Pallets factory closed down

Thats the one, I seem to recall it being signposted further up the road so the driver shouldve past and seen the sign (if its the one i am thinking of), If there is a sign then the driver is a complete bellend, if there isnt a sign I am still allowed my opinion
Perhaps it’s my age, but I’m surprised no-one has clocked the Albion logo on the advertsing board for a farm shop! What’s the story behind that, Paul??

Hi Chris,
Albion Farm is owned by the Hirst family who have have been farming in Saddleworth for many generations take a look HERE
Coincidently it is on the bend next to what was Barrett’s of Delph long gone National fuel station adjacent to the Old Cross Keys Inn.
The picture above was taken in 1968 from Albion Farm with the old fuel station situated on the sharp bend just before the car on left.
Below is the same location as it looks today
It lookes prettier in 1968 me thinks.
Am I being dumb or are both those building completely different now ■■ Almost like they were knocked down and replaced with something different on the same foundations ■■

Not dumb. The 2 storey building is a new/extension, if you look at the chimney arrangements the building on the left in the early picture is now in the centre and the building on the right is almost hidden by trees in the later picture.

The three storey house on the right is obscured now by trees were as the Cross Keys public house had an extension built onto it to the left a number of years ago.
The pub closed a while back and is now Shanghai Wong chinese restaurant.
Snap.

Going down here in a couple of hours - for a meal in a nearby pub - might hook my little 4’x3’ trailer onto the back of the car and take a photo doing the turn
I’d do it with the caravan, but don’t want to have to phone recovery out

I just watched an old Top Gear, the one with ■■■■■, and James may read out a story about someone complaining about them. I drove past the lifeboat station as instructed and it took me down the slip road into the sea.
