Gripe of the day - What is yours?

At least he'll be off the streets for a while, once he's been sentenced and at least your colleagues haven't got to go through the hassle of getting replacement tools, or wating for an insurance payout.

Scumbags indeed

It is a pity that the days are gone when criminals would get one hell of a kicking just to remind them of the error of their ways prior to any police involvement.

Actually round here it is not unknown.

Just because you've got the title as chairman, doesn't entitle you to be an officious bell end, but you are.

Not referring to you Tim

And breathe - ordered a set of PR4's on the 1st of the month. MOT due 16th.
My current tyres are getting low however not too low yet - Rear one however has had a temp repair for about 6 months and thousands of miles later. Probably an MOT fail then.


Guess what, front tyre arrives the next day - cracking service. Now where's the one I need??
Give it a day or two, post a ticket on their website - two days later they get back to me, "We have requested an update from the courier". I allow another 48hrs, send another ticket. I wait again. "It looks like your tyre has been mislaid". NO ****ING ****. Wait another two days or so. Brings us to now.


Tyre Leaders reply, "We can sent you out another tyre however the carrier is booked up and would be about another 9 days". Come on what the Absolute ****.


******s. Last time I order a tyre from them.
Rant mode off...

It doesn't make the crap service any better but a temp repair won't fail an mot.

My cats usually scoff any tinned tuna I give them. Today I disguised their worming tablets in a bowl of Waitrose tuna steak in spring water. They both just sniffed it, gave me a filthy look and flounced off outside. These are special coated tablets that don't taste nasty. Now I'll have to buy more pills and risk losing a limb trying to force the tablets down their throats.

And don't anyone say that if they were dogs you'd just wrap the tablets in bacon!

If they were dogs you could just wrap the tablets in cat food!

It's the spring water that spooked them ?

When I bought my house, I was single and did not see a need for multiple bathrooms/toilets.

Step forward 33 years and my still at home 30+ daughter (Get you own place parasite) has had another hissy. I am not allowed use of my own bathroom between 7.00 and 7:30. And if I go before. I had better not leave it smelly!

My own fault, I should have bought a bigger house with 3 bathrooms.

One of our cats simply refuses to be pilled - even the vet fails. We give her Profender which is a prescription-only spot-on wormer. It may be worth giving that a go instead.

I've just seen that last night they eventually ate all the tuna and left the tablets in the bowl. I think I'll have to go with the neck drops. My cats are cuddly but very big and strong. If anyone saw Planet Earth II last night, Piggie is like the big male snow leopard, looks soft, but can put up a good fight.
