What's made you grumpy today?

watching all the ford owners drive off as im still trying to defrost the Bravos windscreen :(
 
I can't decide weather to sell my car and buy another or keep it and do it up.:(
All a bit crap when you don't have much money. if i were to buy a new car my budget would be around £1500 Max
Estimated cost to do up my car ~ £400 ( New brakes, full exhaust after manifold, gear box input shaft bearing, clutch, handbrake cables...)

Insurance being the Main factor when choosing a car my choice is pretty crap really(n)

Use of car - Motorway driving Daily.

Im having the same problem. If I decided to keep mine for a while I would probably get the bushes all round changed, alloys refurbed, new exhaust manifold although might need one anyway but hopefully is just the gasket.
 
Since the arrival of the bambino SWMBO appears to have forgotten common courtesy, and has shown me little to no affection, and constantly shouts at me even for things out of my control. Really hoping it's just baby blues and not the starts of something more serious. Not sure how long I can take it!

(n):bang:

I think this is quite normal - sounds exactly like how we were after the births of both our boys. Give it time and try to be as patient as you can (i.e. don't snap back at her, although I know that's easier said than done), and eventually I'm sure things will return to normal :)

that's normal not sure when it wears off, been 26 years so far :bang:
 
today was one of them days were every other driver on the road is a complete jackass

some complete nob swerved in front of me then slammed his breaks on so he didn't plow in to the car in front.

I managed not to rear end him at the expense of very hard braking and smoke coming from the tyres, bet thats done them the world of good :mad:

Try seeing it from her point of view.
The affection thing is the fact that she has just not long ago had to go through having a kid she'll be sore and uncomfortable in her own skin and will be petrified that a hug might lead to more.

She's stressed out for 9 months she's carried the baby and has been able to look after it in a sense without any real effort then all of a sudden she has this tiny baby to look after with no instruction manual to help.

She went through a lot during her pregnancy that existing condition will be worse for a while, it's something she can't control.

I remember after having both my kids i would start crying and frustrate my partner cause I had no idea why i was crying so i had no idea how to stop or to tell him how to make it better. It's hard not knowing why your feeling the way you are.

If she's really bad just walk away when you can and take a break from it I know it can't be easy for you either try talking to her about it when she is in a good mood (y)

I've had a similar exp today.
Volvo pull out of a side road as i was passing it. Police car had only just spoken to this driver seconds before this.

Yesterday was also bad. Lorry in front was all over the road, drifting over the lines forcing oncoming traffic to take action.
After this an on coming car almost took me out on a single track road. Forced me off the road. It was dark so i didn't notice any damage.
After moving the last of my stuff out of the house today and the housemate shouting, swearing etc at me:confused: (they have issues i think) They then drive off fast. I notice alot of damage down the side of my car:mad:

I've been telling my self that i did this last night when i was forced off the road. Been about 5-6 hours now, only just calmed down. - They had told me in the past they would damage my car:nutter:

Angry doesn't come close to say how i felt. - However because i was so alert after this i was able to react quickly when this Volvo pulled out on me.(y) (Very Close) If there had been a car coming towards me on the other side of the road there would have been a crash.
 
van window shattered.

people who don't give way on mini roundabouts are the worse, going to phone insurers and wee what they say about a cheap camera system.

think damage was caused by there car or them?
did you get a deal with your land lord?

The damage looks like the car has been keyed. However the damage isn't too deep and there is a lot suggesting that it might be from where i was forced off the road into a bush. Because I didn't see them do any damage other than kick the boot i'm not sure if they keyed the car or not. However the laugh as they left has put a lot of doubt in my mind. - They keep texting me also:confused: If it doesn't stop i will be involving "higher powers" i think.

There is an agreement with the Landlord, but i've paid until the 13th so i don't have to move out. However i feel it's "unsafe" for me to stay there. Once this new contract is signed i can leave and get some of my deposit back. £200 fee to pay though. But for peace of mind knowing that i don't have to pay anymore rent etc is making this justified in my mind.:)
 
if they keep texting you and stuff specially now you moved out get them done for harassment

but seriously dude you bang his mum or something? he doesn't sound right in the head
