So am I because I stopped to take a mileage picture this afternoon.

Don't think I've ever had anything with mileage that low......unless it's second time around 😁

[beko1987]

I missed 177777 yesterday, not quite cross enough for the grumpy thread but it ticked round to 177,778 and I realised. 

Probably couldn't have pulled over though

Michael vaughan on the cricket

What a cnut he looks 

Suit jacket but round t shirt

His trousers are too short

No socks and wearing trainers

And that without him saying anything 

Twat

I’m going to a funeral this afternoon.  Just got myself ready and my other half just says:

’Well, you’re either going to a funeral or you’re joining the Blues Brothers.’

Took the edge off a bit.

I had to get one of those when they were first issued.

And the police cruiser that matches it

And the FAB1 rolls

And the micro scalextric wacky races cars

And road runner and Wylie coyote

Can you see where this is going.... ?🥺

My brother borrowed my chainsaw.

He spent the morning panicking it wouldn't work.

 

He had the chain brake on.

I laughed, but when MK3 son borrowed mine, he did exactly the same thing, and it took me a few minutes to work out what he'd done 🤦

Love these.

I was doing troubleshooting via the phone, so it took a while for me to ask the question.

Id actually lend him the titan electric one, since he's not good with ic units, he's already broken my petrol shredder which is only about 8 months old.

TBF the electric one is just completely dead when the brake is on, so I thought he'd burnt it out....

On my way to said funeral today on the A2, saw a Deloeran in full replica mode.

Sad isn't it?

30 channels of shit, as Pink Floyd said, and the only stuff worth watching is things that were made 40odd years ago 🙄

(Yeah I know they said 13, and there's a lot more than that, but still)

staying airbnb at the weekend as it was quarter the price of the hotels across the water

told them id be there after 1850 when their cut off time is 2100

they didnt understand that 'we're not in the military' (neither am i ffs)

got a message off them - see your arriving at 8 - you must be here before 9 no exceptions

wtf

hope shes friendlier when fat manc turns up on her doorstep - its also been paid for so why is she caring

the reason it was picked apart from $$$ is that its 5 miles from the airport

unless plane nosedives in to cape cod bay or mistakes the vineyard (you want how much to get on your bit of rock) as it turns out i can get on but not get off

for the runway

itll be reet

supposedly shes been doing this 8 years - no idea why shes panicking ffs

Reb, I feel for you. 

I may have a crumb of comfort for you.  My father passed years ago, and I wish I could forget him because he was one of the worlds truly nasty people, very very nasty. Imagine how that feels for me.

Try to smile every time your Dad comes to mind, because you are so very lucky to have had a father you can be proud of , instead of one to be ashamed of. You are very lucky to have had him, even for those short years.

Have you forgotten the rules? AirBnB host knows that you are there to serve them.  This has been learnt from Blackpool guest house owners.

Just make sure there are no cameras in the room(s)or you will end up on OnlyFans
