My home town

[Chris]

But don't you live in the posh end, not in the rough and tumble with hard working men like the aforementioned Mike?

[Giles]

That is true, but it is a town with only a population of 70K…..

[Chris]

It's 70k?  That's bigger than I would've guessed.  Soon it will rival London…

Spotted at Portsmouth Ferry terminal (so just across from Gosport). Someone had parked their Audi on the slipway not anticipating the arrival of the tide

Ooooo shit… that's spectacularly stupid

I’m sure that the salt water will not cause any corrosion or electrical issues.  ???  You will probably see it for sale in a few months with a description of low mileage, new braking system, wheel bearings, etc…

Maybe they should have listened to that voice inside their head that said “Why isn’t anyone else parked here?”

[steelworker]

More likely thought "Great parking! My life is good!"

Isn't it a recurring rant of Jeremy Clarkson that Audi drivers are moronic douchebags?  Seems like this could be Exhibit A in that argument.

[Seul]

Peugeot drivers… Audi drivers are pricks...

[neph93]

Jeremy Clarkson is a moronic douchebag, and a prick at the same time.

[Megatron1505]

I’ll charitably say that he is fond of his own voice.

[Giles]

I liked him once…..

From the article in a statement from the office of the Harbour Master:

“Had it floated away it could have contaminated the water with oil and fuel, so it’s a very fortunate outcome for everyone.”

Honestly though, would anyone have noticed?
