No need for it to be harmless, chiaro, just a bit less grisly perhaps ( and I'm sure you'll win again) !

Double congradulations Busby, an thanks for setting, chiaroscuro. I can why the clip may not have been everones cup of tea, but sorry girls, I enjoyed it! I think perhaps being a Londoner we all feel like doing that on occasion...
BTW where dies the name come from?

I've had such fantasies, and if I lived in LA I would probably have acted them out.

Paul, being a Londoner? Sorry, don't agree... Some of us are girl Londoners and don't think road rage is funny.

G'day Paul.
"BTW where dies the name come from?"

Chiaroscuro, an Italian term meaning light and dark.
Commonly used both in music and in painting.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chiaroscuro

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chiaroscuro_(music)

Chiaroscuro hosted one of the clueing competitions previously and set a musical term to be clued.

Maybe we have now seen both the "light and dark" side ;-)

@foxyfox;

Fair enough, particularly in light of yesterdays news about the innocent lawyer killed in just such an attack.

Thanks Paul, really appreciate your response. The news report upset me and I just think road rage is grim. Enjoy your weekend.
