Your Firefox or Firefox generally? I ordered 2 items from different vendors on 13th Aug without a hitch using Firefox.

Re: Gripe of the day - What is yours?
online buyers;
eBay - people who try and rush to get things shipped straight away when they've only just paid; It's a person to person sale, not a business! Facebook marketplace (i know, i know - i expected this anyway) - selling a car and people message is it still available; yes, that's why it's for sale . . . . . or people offering half the price saying they'll take it now. Of course you would because then it's a give away! People who still do not understand the arrows on the floor of shops and why there are 1 way systems in place . . . it's not a new thing. Essentially, idiots. Idiots are my gripe of the day. |

The one that wasn't, I went to view from a trader - asked him if everyting works as it should before I set off he said yes, got there and it was ****ed he denied all of it until I pointed out there were lights on the dash stating it was ****ed, plus the electrics didn't work and he only had one key and no log book or service history. Toss. Why people don't remove it or mark as sold after a day or so is beyond me

Re: Gripe of the day - What is yours?
Women!
OK I know they are beyond comprehension, especially those that have evolved to the wife status. Why do they consider shopping as recreation? and then wish to look at 5 near identical things before going back and buying the first? even more confusing is why they buy what they do not need? I am again in the naughty corner as I won't go shopping with her. 1) Hello I am working not retired like you. 2) I do not want to waste hours in shoe/frock shops when you must have 30 pairs of shoes and currently fill the wardrobes in 4 bedrooms with your stuff.

Re: Gripe of the day - What is yours?
My wife knows better than to take me shopping. My lack of interest and unhelpful comments takes away any pleasure for her.
