Re: Gripe of the day - What is yours?
People who post without warning horrible graphic images of their injured body parts on Facebook. Not bike crash related either. I don't want to see that sort of thing and I really don't understand why people do it.
I know there's long been an 'Always wear your leathers' thread on here, but that contains a warning and I can choose not to view it.

Previous life, I was among many roles a automotive Engineer and claims assessor. We would contact claimants asking them to leave their vehicle at the nominated repairers on the day when I would be in that area. My week would be split into areas, East Lancs/west Yorkshire, Cumbria, Mersyside/Cheshire, Manchester etc. So it had to be the right day, and at the repairers so we could discuss the repair and argue cost etc. Many times we would get, can you not inspect it at my home on Saturday/Sunday, after 7 etc. Stock answer :- Sorry Sir/Madam. engineers are unreasonable people. They expect to spend the weekend/evenings at home with their families.

Re: Gripe of the day - What is yours?
That no one on here has a decent project/build under way. I could really do with something interesting to read whilst I'm supposed to be working.
