School holidays + Night Shift = Forced insomnia

By yesterday afternoon I had exactly two hours sleep since Sunday. I don't remember bidding on it but I won a Mk3.5 Golf Cabriolet. So the X1/9 and Fantasia fund is gone and even though I now own a Golf I'll probably have to drive to work instead of choosing to.

Imagine the scene, you're out for your morning run about 3 miles in, you spot something ahead which turns out to be this...

Gotta say looked pretty unsettling at 200 yds!

hahaha that's cool. Someone's got a sense of humor

So you advertise a car for sale, you include, MOT, service information and the price in the description; so why do you get twenty emails and messages from people asking "How much?"
"Does the car have MOT?"
Etc, etc, etc....

:bang:

Maybe they'll need help filling out the log book as I doubt they can tie their own shoe laces.

It's not just car ads!!

I'm advertising one of those wiggly-jiggly-shakey vibrator plates thingies on Facebook - the ad clearly states "Offers around £120"

First question? "How much is it for sale for?"

I sold my bike last year and got...

I love stupid question!!

My Dad shouted me this morning (woke me up the @#$&) "Are you there?" Where else would I be? My car & house keys are on the side, shoes in the kitchen and coat hung on the stair riser.

That's nothing...back when I sold my 85 (the one that died shooting oil and petrol out of the dipstick) the advert had the phrase non-runner after the cars description at the top. The Ad stated it was a none runner and either require a total engine strip down and rebuild or a new engine. Then to cap it off the last sentence of the advert was this car is a none-runner spares or repair.

The number if people who phoned up and were surprised to hear it was a none runner. The car was worth about 1200 at the time, it was up for 150...surely if it's a runner that's suspiciously cheap it had 9 months tax and mot ffs. Should have just let them come view it lol...take 150 off them then ask them how they were planning to tow it..

i was looking for some shoe polish so put "carr day martin black" into ebay search and i didn't expect to see that

I'm guessing you mean the photo that's going for £255.89?

EDIT: And the other ones...

yes didnt want to see them, dont want to open the page to report as dont know what else will pop up after in the spam and ads ebay use

I can see how that would be awkward...especially if Mrs Dave were to see it over your shoulder...

I can imagine it no: "Dave, why are you looking at naked blokes on ebay?" Try answering that one convincingly

Is it just me or are there a load more chav houses with blue and white led festive lights this year?

It makes me laugh seeing the Mexican wave of brake lights as people see a blue and white flash and think it's the emergency services.
It irritates me that my nephew hasn't slept for three days because his bedroom resembles a warehouse off the M25 in 1991
