has he lost his onions
|
yes
A501VEG is on the Motor Insurance Database today
|
Me thinks he will be vegetating for a while before he is next at the checkout ( The gates of HMP ?)
Not pre judging of course.
|
|
Think of the extra points he gets on his club card when he fills up with petrol - probably gets a good few air miles too on his credit card!
|

The driver probably thought it was a drive-through supermarket.
"Doing the weekly shop on the Internet beats trailing up and down the aisles and queueing at the tills.
But then customers may have to wait days for their groceries to arrive. And when they do, it may be at an inconvenient time.
Now Sainbury's may have solved the problem by creating what is, in effect, the first drive-thru supermarket."

According to today's DT the RR owner had a grievance with Tesco concerning a bed he had bought from them - base delivered but no mattress apparently. How he thought driving into the shop thru the window was going to help I am not sure! I hope his insurance doesn't pay out for the car damage, that the people in the shop were all OK and that when and if his mattress is delivered it is VERY lumpy!

|
well he obviously didnt sleep on the problem
|
No joke. He was arrested on suspicion of attempted murder. And drink driving.
|
|
|
|
I heard he'd had a few too many...and was looking for a leek
|
He should have arrived in di-van
|
|
shame about the Roller though, it looks in good condition.... doesn't seem to be much car rot on it
|
Hope it wasn't perma tan Winton performing a supermarket sweep.
Or was it an expensive 'rolley dash!

A 50-year-old man has pleaded guilty to dangerous driving after his Rolls Royce crashed through the front window of a supermarket in Hampshire.
And the BiB did not get any free sample:-(

He'll be a shadow of his former self.

He'll be a shadow of his former...
...shelf.
|
|
i just wish he would bogof
|
|
All those tins of CORN. NICHE market.
|
|
Maybe it needed an aisle change (Broad Scottish version of oil)
|
so let's get this right....you're Mr Angry, you've got a beef with Tesco's...you're also absolutely pie eyed...to the extent that driving your pristine Roller through the window seems like a good idea
...and with all the possibilities that could entail...e.g. kids walking past at the time
...and the best that good old British justice can dish out is 16 months inside... it's pitiful isn't it.
and yet not so long ago, a speeding solo biker, riding up a dual carriageway got put away for not much less when he was on his own, all traffic was going the same way, no pedestrians, no significant hazards etc...
we have truly lost the plot in this country

One rule for them and another for middle class people. If he had of been a chav, he would have got a community supervision order.
|
"you've got a beef with Tesco's"
A beef what though, sausage, joint, pie, flavoured crisp?
I'm staggered that someone could do that in any car, and amazed he did in in a RR, which is heavy, making the likely damage even greater. And ruining a good car, which he's now forfeited, according to a report I heard.
Sixteen months would be appropriate for driving with two bottles of Scotch inside him, and twice more on top for the ramming.
"If he had of been a chav"
A Saxo with Lexus lights would have bounced off the glass, though...
