What's made you grumpy today?

[custard]

The manners and sheer ignorance of other questionable motorists has made my blod boil and turn into steam what the flute is wrong with people on the road, why cant they be just normal... :shakehead:

the closest i came to that recently was on the large roundabout going to the M8 in Edinburgh
i was in the left or straight on lane(indicated by arrows) going left
traffic to my left in the left only lane(feeds into 2 lanes)
so i am indicating left,then the guy on my left decides to go straight
i have to brake and avoid.
so i then go to pull back into my lane and continue left
the one car behind me who has had to brake and has seen all of this then sounds his horn at me
i cant describe how enraged i was (and i dont let these things bother me most of the times)
turns out the guy was going to the shop i was going to
so i didnt go in
i know what would have if i did

Your missing all of the excitement of trying to drive without one... I feel for you

worse than that. my dad booked it in the garage

I've been offered a new car - 3rd hand mk2b punto - needs new left hand side & rear first owner was a new driver and crashed a few times...

Good Mk1 with no clutch or Ok mk2b with masses of damage:chin:

 

[JustAndy]

Why not both? Drive the mk2b until you fix your mk1 then fix up the mk2b and sell it for profit

 

[Rawb]

^ This.

 

[Kier]

Could you take the clutch out of the mk2b and put it in your mk1? No idea if it would work though.

 

[MadMan0]

The mk2b is currently my parents car and they use it daily
I think i was offered it mainly because i'm doing alot of motorway driving at the moment and my car isn't very safe

Needs alot of work, will NOT pass the mot next month - needs front suspension, brakes, clutch, exhaust etc etc...

I'll do the clutch when i get some more money... Will take a while with no job

My main Grump today is that the new flat "mates" are back
They have radio on full with someone screaming - rock type crap
They have light time table also so they are always making too much noise, everyone else including me has lectures mainly 9:00am - 20:00pm with a few breaks...

They are also driving an A-Class! - Oddly it will go missing today or tomorrow:devil: burnt down or stripped for parts and sold on ebay:devil:

We've all complained about a billion times - they've only been living here a few weeks Too long...:bang: Messing, loud, woke me up last night 0:00 and again this morning at 7:30

 

[jip0]

pretty sure i have a theiving housemate just have to catch her out now :devil:

 

[MadMan0]

grrrrr:bang:

Trying to order some FF stickers - I don't know my term time address:doh:
I haven't got any post at this address either so i can't just look at a letter or something:bang: - Using google

Edit: I have found the gps cords - how can I turn these into an address? i'll try the post office website now...

cant you just walk out side an look at door number, then walk to end of street and get the name?

 

[MadMan0]

No because there is no road
It's a block of flats in a middle of private land, so i son't know which road to put etc. Anyway! i have managed to find the address...

Post code was posted a student website that i've never heard of, hopefully it's right i've ordered now

Another grump.
Finally got my custom hoody... after 2-4 weeks waiting - they had to be sent back first as printing was wrong - University society jobby

Anyways, got it today and..... Dun Dun splat. It's too small:bang:
No exchanges as they are custom.... £30 for another in a larger size

I though a Medium size would be large enough for an averaged size person, turns out it big enough for a "smaller" person ~ 5.6ft tall maybe... not 6ft (norm around here)

Cannot afford it even if i really wanted to get another - car tax made me broke - MOT nextAhhhh - Then a new car or £800 repairs (Full suspension, brakes, exhaust....clutch.... master cylinders.... window....) might take up the offer of the mk2b, even if it's not as nice (it has air-con)) I've never had a car with air-con, eletric windows, central locking... 4 or 5 fan speeds... Never had a car without damage... i always buy with for some reason...

Can i have my name, FF logo, and number "1" on mine?

Small picture of the mk1 punto under that (my mk1 punto),

And under that the number 1
