Yesterday afternnoon the ravages of hunger could no longer be denied. I went in search of a completely unhealthy solution. This involved something I've begun to slightly dread of late: joining the N11 Dual Carriageway. I would not be disappointed.
Approaching the small village of Kilmacanogue ( southbound ) I could see a car filtering on from the left in the distance. The overtaking lane was free for about 400 metres fore and aft, but I couldn't pull out because a black focus was driving alongside me.
No problem. A few seconds later I look and the focus is still driving beside me. I glanced a couple of times more. A young woman, doing what young women always do in such situations - looking ahead and pretending not to see me.
I had left loads of space in front of my car for the car which was filtering on ( the person did, but behind me instead ). What did Focus lady then decide to do? Well, having escorted me into the rest of the traffic on the inside lane she then sped up thorough the reduced speed limit, and cut in in front of the car ahead of me. She then jammed on the brakes and turned left into the Esso garage!
I was tempted to pull in after her and ask her if he actually knew what she was doing, or if perhaps she's just that dumb naturally. The driver in front of me must have had the patience of a saint. This kind of thing is widespread, but I'll never figure it out.
