Renewed car insurance last week, but we somehow managed to buy a new car this week. Calls up to get insurance swapped for when we pick new car up, expecting to pay some more..... Nope. Zilch increase. Happy days!!! :-D

I no longer have to listen to the "clunk clunk" ... "clunk clunk" as every car drives over a rattly drain cover outside my flat.

Silence is golden :D

Darren,over here in Spain if you've got a clunky manhole lid they lift it up and put an old push bike inner tube that's been split around its circumference around the inner ring and plonk the lid back on !!!

Had a friend who lived opposite a pub with a squeaky sign. Took him months of being kept awake at night hearing it swinging in the wind before he realised he could go out with a step ladder and just oil it himself.

I'm bet people have been sued for doing such sensible things :( Though in my book it was a cracking move.
