Paying a £1 to go across a small bridge in Southampton.

Each bloody way.


theres one in Bath, it was 50p when i went the wrong way and ended up on it with no cash and it was before cards were acceptable, the guy said go back but my 4.4mtr XLWB sprinter said "dont" so i had a freebie

its 80p now

The Cob at Porthmadog was 5p, its free now, the Penrhyndeudraeth toll was 50p but saved a long trip

Dunham bridge into Lincolnshire from Nottinghamshire on the A57. 40 pence. It’s a long way round to avoid the toll. Privately built, privately owned, no other bridge can be built within 15 miles of it.
The butt of the joke by John Bisop and Jason Manford at separate gigs in Lincoln…

You should count yourself lucky.

Twitter is more toxic than the number 4 reactor at Chernobyl.

Temporary three-way traffic lights, with no f***er working within a square mile.

They should be taxed £10,000 a day, which would ensure they are not installed and forgotten about.

Mums who think it's ok that their toddlers can get in cabs covered in or eating an ice cream/jam doughnut.

And then appear shocked when you give them a pack of wipes.
