whats pissed you off today?

Some nobber who is obviously very unsuccessfully trying to contact me to pursue an insurance claim.

Basically a few weeks ago when it was really windy I opened my door and the wind swung it into the Smart car parked next to me. It hit it right in the middle of the door and bent it in (they are plastic by the way). There was no other damage and it would have popped out easily - even our lass said so, so I was tempted to **** off. But I did the right thing and left my details with the car park staff, then took some photos to cover myself in.case they tried exaggerating the damage.

Ever since I have been bombarded with phone calls...all from a private number in work time and they never leave a voicemail. So at this rate they will still be trying to ring me this time next year lol

cant you just answer the calls and see what they want?

No I'm at work every time they ring

i understand. i bet you wish you never damaged their car now?

what toss pots causing you such a inconvenience




lol

Found out today a simple engine swap wasn't so bloody simple.
X14xe from a mk4 Astra that I've bent the valves on, isn't the same as an x14xe from a tigra/Corsa b. I've had to swap all the timing end for the engine mount, and then found out I cant fit the Astra rocker cover to the tigra head as it mounts differently, which I kind of need as the Astra runs a coil pack and the tigra runs a separate coil and HT leads.
And then even worse then that...I CAN'T FIND MY ANGLE GRiNDER :mad:
