Marketingballs. I've taken this from the website of something I was looking at earlier:

*Product/Service name* is about exploring contrasts and harmony. It’s about expressing individuality in modern urban life, the conflict between traditional craft and manufacturing, and balance between design and technology. Reflections of where you are, and where you’re going to be.

Without Googling, can anyone tell me what that pile of utterly generic wankwibble is describing?
They launched it and had an event at the offices opposite mine. I got to work at 7:45am and people were queueing around the corner for it...

Lewis Hamilton's constant attempts to compare himself to Senna, two thirds of his world titles have been achieved when he was marginally the better driver in the Mercedes team, with a car that was 20x better than anyone elses?

Sorry I know he is a hero to many but I just cannot warm to the guy, probably not helped by the BBC's constant adoration of the bloke...

Still not going to make you interesting Lewis.... http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/formula1/34806219

Incidentally if you or I had a car accident and admitted in the media that it was because we had been partying too hard we would then get nicked for 'without due care and attention'?

Depend which era I think. Now, probably yes. In the past then probably not. Urm but then there was Nigel Mansell I guess...

I am not doubting it, however Hamilton irritates me as a grade A version!

It's a pathway not your fucking drive.

People that park on pavements infuriate me.

Using that logic pretty much every driveway in the country is illegal.

If it is using a pedestrian dropped kerb, then yes.

I think someone needs to tell him he needs to straighten up. Might make it a bit easier.

I think the couple are right, at least they are trying to park on their property.

Sometimes, particularly in new build residential streets, not parking on the path means no room for access for emergency vehicles.

If there is enough room for a push chair/wheelchair I don't really mind.

Then again, we have a drive* so no problems

It's a dropped pedestrian path so they have no right. Any driver should know that.

Yes they have the right to park on their land, but they should apply properly to the council.
