I'll try again...

By no means trivial, but didn't want to start a new thread.

This school stabbing in Sweden. I used to live in the town, the neighborhood actually, where it's happened. Pretty horrible anyway, but when you relate it's frightening.

Not it's offensive, or tacky, but his image rights have been violated. Sooner the ice age comes the better, I despair.

It's a very odd feeling isn't it? I felt the same after the Oslo/Utøya attacks and that was before I lived in Norway.

I think another part of it is that these sort of events are almost unheard of in Scandinavia and seems far more contrasting to the peaceful lifestyle they live.

Are you another ex BL employee who ended up there in the 80's? my half brother still lives there today and had some mental nights out in Trollhattan!

Bizarre and sad thing to happen.

Why oh why do I seem to get a multitude of cockwombles driving behind me lately? Trying to force me to go faster is not going to work. In fact,  it makes me more inclined to go a little slower. I have a nippy car but it doesn't make me a boy racer. Dicks.

Perhaps you are driving too slowly.

I drive quickly enough  Wink , it tends to be the rep mobile type more than the youngsters. The arseholes who get in the third lane at junction 16 that heads towards Swindon before it becomes two lanes. 9 times out of ten they end up turning left at blagrove anyway.

Yes. Exactly. It makes me laugh even more when I'm doing 70-80mph on the motorway, playing with the lorries on the inside/middle lanes and the German armchairs (Mercs, Audis and BMWs) come up behind at around 90 and then they have to (slowly) accelerate to licence evaporating speeds when they see me.

Meh. I can go twice as fast as the speed you were travelling at wanker, but I don't have to prove it.
