What's made you grumpy today?

[sh4dow]

Post man has probably pinched it

had 2 parcels go astray recently dispite having a card shoved through the letter box saying they are at the depot :bang:

I don't think our posty looks like he'd be into womens jewellry... I could be wrong...

Grump for today - the blonde dye has only taken out some of the redness (which I guess is good), and not lightened my hair at all. It's still a dark red/brown
Gunna have to buy some proper colour-stripper for about £18.

Car is nearly back together from a recent HG failure, I decide to attack a bit of rust on the sump pan and find holes in it :bang:

At least it'll be changed before it's back on the road, and before the new oil went in, but I've spend enough on this car the last few months...

Wheel centre caps for the alloys on my mk1 punto
I tried to paint them to make them look newer to match the newly refurbished alloys.
But, on one of them the paint is not drying evenly, i've tried twice once, sanding back then re-prime them- comes out fine, after the first coat of paint there are 3 dots where the paint appears to be repelled

So i've search for NEW or USED replacements - 0 on Ebay
The alloys have ATP on the inside and the caps say ATP on them, i can find the alloys if i search for Fiat / Lacia alloys, 0 results if i search for ATP...

Really bugging me as the wheels on the car have the wheel bearing exposed

Watch out for the friend zone

Watch out for the friend zone

Think thats all we're going to be, sucks as I thought it was going well.

Oh well, time to move on!

 

[RuSZ]

Been searching for car insurance today... and thats not even whats made me grumpy

our university recommends for Student Drivers (us who drive to campus) use Endsleigh's "Student Car Insurance" its the same as standard insurance but designed for students.. (obviously)

told them all my details and the cheapest they quoted me £2600.. :angry:

so asked for a standard quote.. and that was £2000...

apparently its because i am living within 10miles of my university and they want us to catch buses or trains and work in the local area...

all been well if, there was a bus stop that goes to university within 30mins walk, a train station within 5miles (and that huddersfield anyway..) and that i didn't work in a different city!!!

So the search continues...

 

[Eklipze3k]

You can use my bike if you want?

 

[RuSZ]

You can use my bike if you want?

I'll just buy back the beetle or speed up buying a 126 and get classic insurance and free tax... WIN!

 

[Eklipze3k]

No free tax on a 126, unless you get a very old one, in which case it'll cost you plenty of £££

mine were cheap with endsleigh.

 

[RuSZ]

mine were cheap with endsleigh.

They dont seem to want to insure me..

Ive been getting quotes of £1k from ASDA, Admiral & Aviva. And currently on the phone to LV

 

[RuSZ]

Got an insurance quote from LV (Liverpool Victoria), the people who say hundreds of drivers move to them every month or something like that...

well my quote was £6,895..................

so i kinda hung up the moment they said that...

got a call 2minutes later say "hello this is LV calling for Mr Johnson, we lost contact with you, would you like to continue your purchase of our policy.."

No... hang up again...

I would have got angry on the phone and asked them to loose 70% of the quote.

Insurance is being a right pain in the arse now.

My angry for today - 92 missed calls and 14 text messages from the girlfriend after last nights antics.

Ive been getting quotes of between £900-1100 all day, then get that one!! i thought Endsleigh were bad...

92 missed calls... clingy much??

or... what did you do?

 

[Modette]

It started with waiting in until 2.pm for a contractor who didnt show up, which is also loss of income because when they say 'am appointment' I cant take a call from a client for fear that the doorbell will ring mid session ( I counsel abused women). So I cleared my dairy for the morning and waited.......

Then I find I have a headlamp bulb out and the tutorial says I need to take off the wheel and / or the bumper and cut my hands to bits and lay in the dirt and use tools and all sorts of other unpleasant stuff. Nice one Fiat

THEN, I realise that my neighbour has just lit the mother of all bonfires in his garden and the bedding from THREE beds is hanging on my line.

PS: My son who is 18 gets stupid car insurance quotes too, its an EXTRA £2000 to put him on MINE - getting his own is coming in at £7000 on a £700 1.2 Punto.

Oh yeah and the reason the contractor was coming was because there is an almighty crack in the brickwork down the back of my house - subsidence or something.
