Went to it. Had to park our Avenger on a satellite car park miles away and get a bus to the NEC.

(They are pretty big, and it’s scrabbles a bit on full lock, but it’s a small car which makes the wheels look chunkier than normal, if that makes sense. Ride quality is superb, tyre noise is a bit much.)

I see the problem, people see the sign warning Ford and think "I will be fine I'm in a Mercedes"

Useless fecking contractors. But it's a grin because I just laughed. 

Context - I live in a flat so lots of communal areas. Many ongoing maintenance issues. 

Two main issues: 

The communal hallway door needs a new fire closer thingy 

The communal bin store door needs a new hinge and digilock. 

What have they done? 

Put the fucking door closer on the bin store doors* 🤣🤣

Useless cunts. Been waiting 6 months for it to be sorted

Needed a big moped to go from my house to the unit where my ‘toys’ are stored so I don’t have to dick around with moving cars all the time, and procured this while having one of my cars MOT’D today at the garage:

Went in a posh shop today , the type that has a man on the door to keep riff raff out and open the door for you .  Prices were small . As in lots of digits on a small plaque. Designer stuff laid out on stands , staff who helped , and the wife did some more Xmas shopping .....  I can actually say I have paid less for a car than what was carried out the door in a little black bag , door was opened by the doorman ...

I have seen some price tags in my life but this was unreal .. !!
