Re: Gripe of the day - What is yours?
Let me clarify.
What I was actually objecting to was that they leave the trimmings for everyone else to wade through. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Re: Gripe of the day - What is yours?
Bleedin bike electrics
The street has no dash display and the fuel pump won't prime. But the lights and horn all work fine. New battery and I have tried it with he alarm taken off. Spent the morning checking all the connectors as that is the usual suspect (involves stripping tank and airbox) to no avail. Call to the dealer if it's one of the relays...they haven't experienced it. So there is one obvious bit of wiring to check with the multi meter and then relays, before that some more Google foo and owners forums to see if there are any pointers.

Gripe of the day, just been out for a nice walk up the disused railway line (Sustrans route). Hundreds of plastic bags full of dog-$hise everywhere. Poxy dog owners should be made to eat it. Firm but fair I think.

It looks like I'm going to be taking the switch gear apart next. None of the pins had any significant tarnish on...none were green.

Re: Gripe of the day - What is yours?
My annual flu jab didn't protect me, maybe it could have been worse, but the last 3 days have been absolute hell.
At least it is this week, and not Christmas day. Now sitting in a post illness exhaused state, with that yucky mucus tainted mouth, so nothing tastes good. I guess i picked this delightful virus on the train last Thursday, surronded by coughing and sneezing commuters. Sleep i need more sleep

Re: Gripe of the day - What is yours?
My gripe of the day. People not understanding that the flu jab only protects you from the 3 types of flu that the world health organisation think will be the most likely to kill millions of people in the coming winter. Not protect you from everyone of the several thousand mutations of ordinary cooking flu that are around all the time. The flu jab is not to prevent you from getting ill it is to prevent you from getting dead.
Nowt personal, but you poked my cage. |
