What's made you grumpy today?

[the rake]

The fact that there's always someone willing to be a complete "bell end" in order to screw things up for you when they're finally on the right path.

Now I'm no fighter, but it's taking a lot to stop myself from decking 'em.

Went to check on my car this morning (due to residential parking i can only park around the corner from me), alarm was going off, aparantly all night long. I didnt hear a thing. Council have left a nice 'Nuisance Order' note on my windscreen
Will anything happen because of this?

Had that today with my 14 yr old son (not for the first time).

i get the opposite when I'm out with grankids, people think I'm the dad not grandad, when i correct them they say i don't look old enough to be a grandad :slayer:

 

[Focus Owner]

great grandad?

 

[sludgeguts]

This latest obsession for cyclists to ride around wearing umpteen high intensity xenon strobes strapped to their bodies and bikes.
Even worse since the council's latest cost-cutter - turning off the streetlights.
So, whilst your eyes are used to limited light/ oncoming traffic, you then suddenly get hit with these things - and they all seem to be just at my eye level!

People who dont use indicators - i pull out so i'd be right behind him and THEN he decided to turn.... FFS

Checking my 10 now

NSR sliding door refuses to open

It opens about half an inch & that's it.

Why do these things always go wrong when the temps drop to freezing?

Just spent a good half an hour sorting it - at least I can open the door now but the broken bit of plastic will probably not be available as a seperate item & will no doubt be a very expensive repair.

we (me and my brother) may have to sell a car (or both of our cars (panda and marbella) if one does not make enough) to cut back on outgoing costs.

i really cant see whats so great about this life thing right about now. its all just pain pain and people trying to take what little you have off you.

also every job i applied for fell through. all 37 of them. (of only 12 asked me to come for an interview)

Gutted for you, however if it's running costs that you want to reduce cant you just sorn them? Or do you need the capital out as well?

 

[Dragon Man]

we just need cash in general but everything were cutting back on helps.

:yeahthat:

For this reason we've 4 Panda's but only ever have one on the road at any time, 2 are not worth much, worth more to us (as I suspect your two cars are John) so we just take it in turns as to which we have on the road.

Just remember the problem with selling things off is eventually you run out of things to sell, also you'd kick yourself if you have to turn down work because you can't get there because you've sold your car.

Perhaps you as a family should pay a visit to the citizens advice bureau and see what they can suggest, you may be entitled to help and benefits you don't know about
