woody2 Posted March 28, 2017 Share Posted March 28, 2017 Apologies for offending anyone from the travelling community.

monasqueen Posted March 29, 2017 Share Posted March 29, 2017 The spoiler for both tents though is drinking beer out of plastic cups. Whoever thought that one up should be hung drawn and quartered (then minced) Mincing was not really necessary if the full punishment was carried out. you shall be drawn on a hurdle through the open streets to the place of execution, there to be hanged and cut down alive, and your body shall be opened, your bowels plucked out, and your privy members cut off and thrown into the fire before your eyes. Then your head to be stricken off from your body, and your body shall be divided into four quarters I gather that care was normally taken to ensure that the guilty party was still conscious enough to witness the burning of the "privy members". But.... this is the 21st century, not the 17th century..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

La Colombe Posted April 4, 2017 Share Posted April 4, 2017 I wonder how much DED paid Iron Maiden for this bizarre bit of advertising... http://ironmaiden.com/news/article/uk-tour-art-revealed That poster might encourage some impressionable motorcyclists to risk riding their motorcycles without a crash helmet on. Is that the right message for the DED to be pushing? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

La Colombe Posted April 4, 2017 Share Posted April 4, 2017 The message seems to be "Don't Forget Your Helmet". There seems to be several apt messages. "Securely Tether Your Dirigible" for example. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
La Colombe Posted April 4, 2017 Share Posted April 4, 2017 He's also riding in the wrong direction for the carriageway. That's not a good message. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Declan Posted April 4, 2017 Share Posted April 4, 2017 I hadn't noticed that, I was too busy wondering where the picture was. Somewhere on the M6 North of Lancaster I thought, but how can Dublin, Glasgow and Newcastle be in the same direction. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
La Colombe Posted April 4, 2017 Share Posted April 4, 2017 I wondered that too! Then I noticed the signs correlate more with their UK tour rather than the British motorway network. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
La Colombe Posted April 4, 2017 Share Posted April 4, 2017 So, reckless bike thieves with a blatant disregard for motoring laws are headed to the island in a couple of months. Thanks for the warning DED! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
