Then you will applaud my intervention on your behalf. And that I object about telepathy. This isn't telepathic. It is telegraphic.
Surely its the inside lanes that have booths!!! I use it daily. There's one tidy looking toll booth operator. Dave I think his name is.
i don't applaud it. it makes no sense. the first post said " we have new machines on the bridge" your post said " why are you telling people about the new machines? other places have had those machines for years" it is not relevant that the machines have existed for years. it is relevant that some of us may soon encounter them for the first time. this is the purpose of the first post, not to say "look, someone has invented a new machine!" try learning about logic one day. you might even like it.
Because they haven't previously invested in the technology - perhaps there wasn't a need (the bridge is hardly rammed with traffic) or perhaps they couldn't afford it (the bridge board is notoriously potless). Does that help clarify for you?
Nelson won at Trafalgar because he wasn't surround by patronising ****s with a propensity for using long words in a futile attempt to appear superior.
I live in looe and cross the tamar bridge with a tamar tag Tag holders pay 75p cash is 1.50 so why only 15p cheaper on Humber bridge ?
I doubt many on here will know of the Warburton Bridge over this way but it has to be the most ludicrous toll road in the country. At rush hour, there are often 20 minute delays queuing for this single lane Toll Bridge because it is all paid in cash by hand. If the M6 is jammed for whatever reason, then the Bridge becomes the alternative escape route and can often cause the whole road network around it, between Trafford and Warrington to clog up. No chance of it ever being automated either. The charge is 12p.
To experience cultures you need to step ashore, thought that would be common sense. Oh hang on, you seem to be a little short in the supply of that gift!
Having watched this structure built from the word go then getting stuck on the thing for an hour as it opened to the public for the first time as I crossed from Hessle to Barton, I have never failed to be amazed by the bridge's beauty. It could be even better if lit up properly and I'm still surprised at the amount of traffic that crosses this bridge apparantly going from nowhere to nowhere, a phrase often stated by those who scorned the project from the off and branded it a white elephant.
I once arrived without change. Gave the chap a fiver. He looked at me like it was a wind up. He took his time counting out my change in a mixture of 10 pence pieces and pennies just to ensure I learnt the lesson. Didn't seem the sort of person to start a "but it's legal tender" discussion with.
Agree about lighting it up. I'd like to see suicide barriers installed too. Far too many people are taking their lives jumping off it.
