Thank you to the shiters who told me you can raise a Paypal dispute long after eBay's miserly 30 days after a recent shafting on there - I have got my money back!

Thank you to the shiters who told me you can raise a Paypal dispute long after eBay's miserly 30 days after a recent shafting on there - I have got my money back!

How many days had actually elapsed?

[HH-R]

I won the auction in the 1st week of Aug (can't remember the exact date) and was given excuse after excuse weeks apart for non postage until I asked for a refund, then it went all silent.

 

Opened the Paypal dispute on the 8th of this month and they gave the seller 10 days to respond. Nada so I got a refund.

Got negged by an ebay twat. Sadly for him I know how to play the game a lot better than he does and managed to get him 'not a registered user' today. Technically* this also makes his neg removable, but not sure I can be arsed to play fight the ebay system just yet.

 

Also kinky girl lives in a different city. So next time I'm playing hide the sausage I can also send him an argos book minus postage and not tie it to me.

Argos must love you.

Is there no end to the marvel of a good chaddy shop? Today was a jaunt back to the eighties, oh yes, that's a MKIII Escort pictured in the instructions.

 

 

But how can I ever hope to better such treasures? Oh here's how, Cheeky Charly.

 

 

Fat chump in DHL outfit to hang in back window, by the magic of pneumatics he shall on command drop trou, baring full arsecrack!

 

 

Who could not term such exposure indecent? An outrage!

The next Audi bellend tailgater is certainly going to get what for.

Winston Cat decided to try and catch a spider today - but after 10 or so seconds was all puffed out so gave up on the silly idea and flopped

Sent off application for WBoD funding job Friday night. Checked email this morning "We'd like to invite you to an interview". Wow that's speedy, and yay!

 

Please choose from following slots, Thursday at 1.15 or 2.45. Shit, that's really soon!

 

Now, here's a long shot, but we all posted some job interview advice a few months back, does anyone know whether it was on here, or in a thread in it's own right? I feel like I need to cover all the angles, and I could really do with breaking through a glass ceiling which has held me back for too long where I am atm. Plus, the pay rise is decent too!

According to the internet, it is still de rigeur to wear a shiny suit, pointy shoes and sit like you're constipated.  If you can achieve those three things you should get the job.

There was this one in the open forum

Think it was more about not been a twat than interview techniques though.

[Pillock]

That's my #1 technique in a nutshell.

 

Depends how they interview but loads of places these days use situational judgement stuff.... "What would you do if XYZ" or "have you ever been in a position where blah blah blah, what did you do" so just sit one evening and maybe write down all your challenging situations, times that you had to do important shit, just so they're at the front of your mind in the interview.

Just started doing the hoovering (yes, I do clean up sometimes, cheeky bastards!   ) and big bang (good programme!) and cloud of acrid smoke which had me and the dogs scarpering outside pretty tout sweet! New hoover (other makes are available) required - fuckstix!

 

So, I contemplated depleting the bank acount further with a wizz-bang cordless, bagless jobby and then went to the Rowcrof charity shop. There in, I spied (well actually, I didn't the man had to go out the back and fetch it) a Dyson upright bagless, thing. And a new rug to go in front of the door 'cos the carpet is shagged and all for the bargain price of £7!

 

Wonder if it works? 

[xtriple]

My 'new' £5 hoover (Dyson) is brilliant and does what it's supposed to do... clean the floor/carpet. Dog hairs be gone foul demon....

 

Bloody heavy though for an old cripple to push around!

[DeeJay]

Tape the Hoover to your dogs arse, picks the hair up as they drop.

I was trying to find out the number for the parts department of The Dealership Formerly Known As George Heath in Brum so I could get a price on a gen-u-wine oil filter for the Pug of Many Miles.

 

No success getting the number on Peugeot UK's website, but I did find out that Pug's website's 404 Error page features.... a 404.

 

Marvellous.

nasty dark and wet morning.......

 

Got followed for a while by a P4 Rover that was 'keeping up with the traffic' very well.

Just looking through some old pics and found this.

 

Went on a road trip across Canada when working for her majesty.

BATUS banger?

 

How many days had actually elapsed?

 

Paypal told me that I had 6 months in which to raise a dispute, regardless of what eBay tell you

[MrDuke]

I'm guessing that's because Paypal's used for such a massive variety of payments now, they have their own completely separate dispute procedure. Technically they're not the same company as eBay anymore, although whether that's just on paper I don't know.

Yeah a Batus special. Did a two week sight seeing (drinking) cross country drive after the exercise.

[strangeangel]

The 205 passed it's MOT, first go

Winning at life. I did the same on a 1987 Olds Cutlass, turquoise with a white padded vinyl roof. Used more oil than petrol, that motor. Great days

I went to get some shopping earlier with mrs fp, i always Park where there's a few spaces, came out of the shop and saw there was a Fiat 500 abarth parked need to me, a woman who was at least 70 was looking at the saph smiling, then got into the abarth being very careful with the door so it didn't contact, as I got into my car I gave her a nod and smiled like a Cheshire cat, at the fact this old dear had a quick little car that you would associate with a cap headed yoof

[xtriple]

What's made me grin is people making comments about the dogs being chauffeur driven and the smiles that the old car gets when people see it with a dogs head hanging out of either side with drool stains down both sides!
