And swapping them round isn't farting around?!
Irrelevant. You also don't have to wait 4 times as long for the garage to change them.
Do you seriously believe the loss of grip is sudden?

Mine has a limit on how much you can take at once, but no limit on the number of visits per day. Funny, the queues are longer now.

I want one of those like in Knight Rider (or James Bond?) which rotates, giving you a nice selection. You just need to add some of a similar model car belonging to people you hate.

Mechanics can't be bothered doing that shit. And easy enough to set a timer.

How many I do now is irrelevant to how many I did 10 years ago.
A few weeks ago I was behind
It's funny when they try that in front of a lorry.

If they reach the point where they fail a MOT on tread depth its typically 40% less grip (or 40% greater stopping distance) compared to tyres with tread depth of 6mm.

My local council tip has had covid restrictions for the past 2 years where they limit the number of people at the tip at any one time. They achieved this by blocking off every other parking space. This did/has resulted in very long queues waiting to get in but at least there is an on-line webcam showing the queue that is updated approx every 30 seconds. If possible avoid week-ends and when the tip first opens - too many people believing if they get there early they will be first in the queue. Recently I've found mid morning on weekdays there is no queue.

Some may disagree with that statement. Would you like to cite evidence from a reputable source.
Here's one from an interested party, but it contradicts your statement:

In any case slicks are always better than treaded tyres in the dry.

How does blocking off parking spaces work? How do people know they can't get in? Mine has a barrier with some clown allowing you through gradually.
Same council idiots here, believing they have to seperate people outdoors in the fresh air further than they're seperated in a supermarket.
They also put up a sign saying "switch off your engine while queueing." But the cars move forwards one position every 20 seconds. I ain't starting my engine 100 times.
