a few weeks back, i went to get some stuff from wickes on the way back from a job, to fix something at the office... i had my grey L200 & an 18' long flat trailer, so i had to park down where the wagons go with deliveries....
so, i start slowly reversing out, and i mean 1/2mph slow, with my hazards & sidelights on. as i start to back into the car parky bit, so i can turn round, some coffin dodger hurtles backwards out of a spacehopper bay in his 51 reg golf & smacks my trailer on the side, in line with the wheels.... i stopped, he pulled forwards & climbed out with a look of disgust on his face, and then his missus does to.. so i opened my side window, and backed up to where he was stood... i pointed out that he would have done no damage to my trailer when he ran into it, so i was not going to give him any details, as it was 100% his fault for not looking, and i left...
so to recap, a man hit my trailer on private land because he didn't look.
today, a letter arrived from the police. they apparently plan to prosecute us for about 5 traffic offences, as our large white van with the (previous name before we went Limited) company logo had been involved in an accident with this blokes car.
1. we don't own a large white van..
2. we have 2 medium sized white transits with the old name on them
3. no mention was made of a trailer
4. my L200 still has the old logo on, but they apparently decided to look on the interweb to get some details & went to the police with them.
5. FFS it was a 6" crack in the paint on his bumper.
anyway, my brother told the cops to go away........
The brewery and pubs are ran as two separate businesses so cuts only affect the area getting cuts, but I see your point. Age and wisdom thing there lolQuote:

Only time heals that kind of pain. moarning is a horrid process we all have to deal with :(
She's cried herself to sleep at the minute, I'm sat in bed fretting tbh :(
southie. just be there for her, listen to her, if she wants a hug, hug her. just don't do all the 'well, she had a good innings' sort of stuff....
As mowgli said mate when my girl friend nan passed away last year I was just there for her and her family .
My boost controller has thrown a wobbler, car is mapped for 1.15 bar controller is running a little over 1.3bar low boost setting is gone which was all mapped in and my eml is flashing high in the rev range or in 5th from about 4k and knock a way higher then it should be. Fml.
Don't know if it's just me being a grumpy old git but I'm getting royally pissed off with receiving mail for the old owners of my house, it's not just crap like junk Mail, that I could live with, it's stuff like phone bills, credit card stamens even car insurance renewals, this was the last straw for me, I've lived here for a year and a half and today got a car insurance renewal letter, now this means they taken car insurance out at my address since they've moved out, I've tried ringing the company's to inform them of this but due to identity laws they can't do any to help, it's drving me crazy.........
Contact the company's saying there involved in fraud and identity theft and attempt to use fulse details for the purpose of insurance that should wake them up
Think I might do that, I just don't get the mentality of people, if you move house change you bloody address over, especially on important things, I did mine a few days before I moved in, it's only a small thing but its just grating on me now.

That moneysupermarket advert makes me cringe everytime i see it to the point i turn it over now when it comes on!! Things people do to sell stuff.
ok, invest in amazon prime, or netflix. you need to step away from advertising for a bit till you calm down..
adverts are only there so you can get a beer or have a slash in between the telly show..
Think i will lol.
the greeks.
they managed to run up E240billion in debt, by a mixture of doing sod all work & being paid loads for doing sod all, and when the european central bank came knocking for the money, they defaulted on it several times.... they have now elected a govt of hard line left wingers who simply have no intention of paying the money back, but that's ok, cos they are planning to re hire all the people who were sacked under the austerity measures, raise the minimum wage & re connect all the people who couldn't pay their electric bills & were cut off, using a magic money tree.....which are oddly close to what Red Ed is planning to do if the country is daft enough to elect him......
Found out my mate is banger racing my old nova. Gutted so much work went into her. And before you NO ask we do not talk anymore
My gt4 decided to blow it's head gasket :cry:
hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahah whatta guy he is!!!!!!Quote:

It's the youth of today there all brain dead sheep. makes you worry for the future!!
not really my WPYOT, but this actually happened to a good friend of mine........
his son came to visit him, as he had something he wanted to tell him......
it basically went like this: 'dad, i'm going to become a woman & would like to be called 'abby' from now on'
oh, and the son is not into blokes, he/she is into girls, so his son is actually going to be a lesbian too
my friend is wandering about in a daze..... i'm a man of many words, but i have none that could possibly help on this occasion

Mowgli, give him a manhug and go out for a few beers with him... It's probably a parents nightmare bringing up a child in a "typical" certain way to find out internally and mentally that said child is the opposite sex, still there child though and no matter what they've to stand by the situation... Must be bloody hard though for him/her to open up to their dad of all people I suppose.
Id say few beers and let him know he's done a great job raising his child if they know they can come to him with something like that he's done his job well
its a tough one... he is actually paid to do counselling work, and has encountered a great many things... I think the drink thing might work...i'll give it a try
Tough one, this. I have a lady friend with a son who has become a daughter several years ago... and eh/she's into females as well. Does that classify her as a lesbian? God knows. All I know she (the mother) is struggling to accept her son's new found life as a young lady. Not only that, the girl has moved to Thailand because she was getting an awful lot of stick over here. Apparently that sort of thing is widely accepted in Thailand.
As for going for a beer with your mate, yes it's the best thing I can think of. Just be there to listen. Don't try to be a counsellor yourself, just be yourself and listen.
1st of all Stuarty is bang on, for a kid to be honest with you like that shows good parentingQuote:

turns out, her mum and dad had been together for 10 years, married for 7 and then when the daughter was 6 the mother decided she was a lesbian and she couldnt carry on the "show" anymore and that shed been seeing another woman for 6 months :eek: i felt so sorry for the dad without even meeting him but most of all for Tess, my comment hurt / offended but im sure we can all imagine just how hurtfull some intentional comments wouldve been at high school, i know for some men the whole 'mrs getting off with another woman' is a fantasy and theyd love it to happen, for me it isnt and i honestly think id have a fooking break down, how you deal with it with kids in the situation is beyond me

My WHPYOT is ebay peopl wanting nothing but postage
i do ebay, have 80+ items listed a month on there selling mostly car parts, a good 80% has always been via postage however on doors and bonnets etc i insist on collection due to damage, ive now had no less than 5 enquiries about front end panelwork set im selling off a car despite saying in the add collection only they all ask how much posted , the chance of a Bonnet,Bumper, 2 wings and 2 headlights getting there without damage is slim to none with business couriers, a private courier quote i had done was £90 for a 180 mile one way trip i thought this good but nope "thats a rip off"
why is everyone so damn lazy these days? get in the car you clearly have and come collect the damn panels, i wouldnt mind but when one said despite my protests due to past damage, he'd " send Tnt collect them mate, just put some wrap around them mate" i replied, "sure, ill do that, just make sure when doing the paypal payment you click pay as gift" to which i got the unfathomably stupid reply "why would i do that? you could con me or if theyre wrecked im stuck with them, im reporting you to ebay" yes, but you said theyre not going to get damaged....
