What's made you grumpy today?
I managed to hyper extend my knee playing hockey in the rain yesterday. Sweet lord jesus does it hurt.
Last week I did a week working at my dads firm, long hours 5.00am to 8.00pm, manual labour (warehouse/courier) I had a great time 
then I come back to my normal desk job today, no one has covered for me for the week, I've got angry e-mails from customers, my manager on my back about how I 'need to step-up my game' every 5 minutes and a few co-workers (knuckle draggers) being complete arseholes. And to top if off the directors have decided to change my role around so I have even more work to do!!
It also turns out nowhere has stock of the FK shocks I wanted for my sei and I can't find anything else suitable for the budget I have, so looks like I will have to drive around even longer with the front of the car bouncing about and oil leaking all over the brakes and wheels.
Had a really bad day.

Good grief - do you live in the 1970's
Nope - its a slowly growing thing
my other half wanted todo roller derby, started to learn how to skate, i then wanted to learn too!
now its a thing we like todo together, good exercise, music nice and loud and have some fun while falling flat on my arse
Must admit - the ankle recovered quickly, its my nea, still in a support but im walking now
Ziggy
nea?
being pushed into the central reservation by an absolute idiot of a driver. complaints have been sent to the company that he clearly forgot was on the side of his VAN.
Got it on video
Some right idiots out there
No unfortunately
, this event this morning has been the last straw. made me buy one.
the rover K-series engine. why do they always break when it's dark?
Went for a walk on my lunch at work...spotted something odd on one of the cars I was walking past and ended up doing a double take...a 57 plate ford ka with a Michelin mxl on it.
Now why this is weird...they were discontinued in the early 90s and replaced by the mxt. So how has a car made in 07 got one? Also it must be 20 years old if its a day...Obviously a believer in safety 1st!

Coz he's got a *****.
What's made me grumpy today?
When a 'friend' asks for IT advice, which of which I'd usually be charging clients for.
Then they say that my advice isn't right and they can't do it.

Aye I've googled it since and yes for the princely sum of only 24 pounds you can have tyres so old that if my fiances sister fitted to them to her car her tyres would be older than she is. People really will buy anything...should start selling used condoms and needles.

You know what to do next time
That's why I refuse to help family or friends. I can remember doing a factory restore on a friends laptop and because I did that I was responsible for every 'fault' that happened over the next year The only people I help for free now are people on the forum! I even did a remote support session to fix a printer lol.
