You keep banging on about this. If everyone who ever broke a law was caught
and punished to the full extent of the law, *everyone* would be in jail.

The rate of accidents go up around Christmas time, those accidents
would not have happened if these people didn't drink & drive.
You can think of no other reason for the rise in accident rates than
drink-driving? Like late-night shopping, last-minute panic present-buying,
everybody going out to parties whether they drink or not? If there's more
traffic, there's more accidents, you div. Personally, I reckon I drive
better if I've had a couple - more relaxed, see?
Drunk driver are evil scum. Them MURDERS!!!
Funnily enough, in about 30 years of drunk driving, I haven't killed anyone,
or crashed because of being drunk. This makes me a "murder" in what way?
I've had a couple of accidents when I've nodded off at the wheel while
completely sober.

Why's it a stupid thing to say? C'mon, let's have something coherent out of
you for a change.

Well, that was succinct.

The plod go out looking for drunks at xmas. Other times of year, detection
is left to the safety cameras. I thought that would have been obvious.

The law of averages is on my side. I've been doing it successfully for 30
years, and the only accidents I've had have been while I've been sober.
Drink-driving *works*.

You appear to have real difficulty with spelling "murderer". You also seem
to find it hard to explain why you consider me a murderer when I haven't
killed anyone.
Check your spelling, bloody useless drunk driver
So, how long have you been trying to use English for, sonny?

That should read:

Cor! You write good, dunnit?
1. "Prepositions are not words to end sentences with." is an example of
irony. In your case, wasted irony.
2. Try to use punctuation correctly: ie "But, in both cases..."
3. Try to understand sentence formation - and for what commas can be used -
got that, sonny? (expl: both sentences end with ", sonny", not just "sonny".
4. And never start a sentence with a conjunction.
Let that be a lesson to you.

1. "Prepositions are not words to end sentences with." is an example of

2. Try to use punctuation correctly: ie "But, in both cases..."
It seems you imagine my speech would pause after the word 'but', is that
the case? I wrote that line exactly as I'd say the sentence, I'd not
pause after the word 'but'.
3. Try to understand sentence formation - and for what commas can be used -
got that, sonny? (expl: both sentences end with ", sonny", not just "sonny".
I can see how if I'd written something along the lines of - 'The sky is
blue. But, sometimes clouds obscure the sky.' the word 'But,' would be
correct, in that context it sounds correct.
In a single sentence I'd not make a pause, there's no point in doing so,
it's a one line interruption.
4. And never start a sentence with a conjunction.
Let that be a lesson to you.
Boring, boring, boring.
You and Des should meet up.
