Sorry to hear about the cat Chris.
Always sad to lose a pet but worse when you've had them for so long.

Default Gripe of the day - What is yours?

I think Martin it was sharing a water bottle, strictly no kissing!

Poor little Rascal, he was a lovely cat, he would come and lie on me in bed at Chris's in the hope I might get up and feed him.

Sorry to hear about Rascal Chris. It's so hard losing pets, they really are part of the family. A good age to make though.

Gripe of the day:

The amount of people who fall for fake news stories on Facebook and then repost that shiite so that I have to see it.
How could they all be so gullible?

Oh wait, all of them are Americans. Nuff said.

Change that.
Gripe of the day:

Americans.
99.9% of them really are STUPID.

Switching on my TENS without realising that overnight the gell pad had detached and ended up in 50 shades of Gray mode!

Bill please be careful, all this unpatriotic talk will be bringing you to the attention of the authorities. Have you seen any strange helicopters hovering locally lately? or even worse a drone!

Ordered a new mobile (old one was smashed in December accident and I've been using a Nokia brick since then) as I've finally saved up enough. It arrived with free next day delivery (ordered at 5pm last night), however all three anti tamper seals have been broken, the screen cover peeled off and stuck back down and the usb slot damaged - suspicious or what? Now I have to return it, have it processed then hopefully get a new one sent out. unfortunately the timescale of this means that it will arrive next week, so no one will be here so I will have to wait until the following weekend. Why can't I have nice things

Also I'm having two today, and if you don't like it, well you know the thread to post that in! One of my license plate bolts fell out on the way to work today. I checked everything for tightness Friday when I got the bike and it was tight, but now my nut and bolt (plastic) are rolling about the M4, not cool! I'll have the thread lock the new one when it arrives!

LOL, If I see a drone I'll dress up as a muslim.
That way I know I'll be safe!





(Truthfully, better watch those muslim jokes though)

Morons on the road who think two wrongs make a right. To the Volvo driver who pulled out into lane two of the M40 behind me this morning flashing his lights, shouting and gesturing, clearly upset that I had moments before been inches from his rear bumper - I was only there because you cut me up you bell end and had to brake hard to avoid hitting you. The second bout of bad driving was as bad as the first. Perhaps if you look AND INDICATE before you change lanes in future you won't have to get so worked up at your own incompetence. You seemed quite happy sitting behind that truck at 60 for so long so when you suddenly changed lanes just as I was almost level with you was inexcusable.

Pass the blood pressure pills.
