Yeah right!
I feel cheated.....in fact I think I will complain...Dear BBC, why oh why oh why (bet you didn't know I wrote the 'Points of View' letters, I am also famous for my 'Please please please please please' letter to the same show)....anyway back to feeling cheated, mocked, sullied, insulted and cheated (again).  Why oh why? I hear you ask.
 
The other day I bought an item in good faith, I paid good money for it and expected it to be what I paid for - the sale of goods act says something along the lines of ' if it isn't what it says on the tin - you can get your money back and/or complaint upheld.'
 
So in good faith I bought a Lucky Dip lotto ticket from ASDA....not one number came up...call that lucky!  Where's the manager? I also need to talk to him about my tin of evaporated milk which was full to the brim!  Evaporated? yeah right!
 
I guess it's not all bad news, Glasgow City Council have agreed to change the signs in the area allowing drivers to travel through and around Robroyston without all going via the burger van roundabout and past the 'junction of terror' wooOooOOOoo!!  ...Well it is pretty scary coming out from Wallacewell Road with 3 milliseconds between the white van and the arrogant driver who sees slowing down as a weakness.
 
Only trouble is they need to know where to put the signs and were last seen going the wrong way in the direction of Kirky....via the burger van roundabout and the ...........NO! LOOK OUT!! BANG.
 
Pity that....a 'Slow Down' sign would have helped.
