How can one relatively sane, level headed person be reduced to a gibbering wreck by simple things such as a shopping trip, a decision of what lunch to have, planning ahead a couple of weeks in advance or other such basic* tasks? ? *OK, so trying to orchestrate a 4 way liason between parties to liberate a relatively unloved vehicle from being banger raced is a bit stressful, and I perhaps should have thought about that, but the other points are valid. And in no way related ? I feel you there! anxiety has been a Major Pain in the arse/back for me with all the invacar stuff, mainly when it came to contacting people for information over the phone etc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pillock Posted June 9, 2019 Share Posted June 9, 2019 Fully support the acoustic cameras/noise control It's warm so we're sleeping with windows open. We live near some industrial areas, notably an Amazon warehouse with a few hundred people at any one time. Midnight or so, some fuckhole in some small engined loud exhaust car goes past. 6am he goes home again. You can hear the wanker from about half a mile away caning it through the gears (as fitting a shit exhaust has probably lost power) and he wakes me up every night. I'm seriously tempted to throw a load of plasterboard screws across the road at 5.55am GrumpyCat, LightBulbFun and dozeydustman 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DoctorRetro Posted June 10, 2019 Share Posted June 10, 2019 The other side of the black dog menace is always hiding round the corner. Feeling like shit at the moment, perhaps as the aftermath of all the anxiety the past couple of days, or perhaps resurging of not feeling good enough. You know when you spend your whole life being distinctly average at everything you do? I mean, I can't even save a rare car without being upstaged by a rarer one and a better story ? Not annoyed about that, but more that it's just sods law and typical of my world. Guess I needed a rant. As you were. ? paulplom and Cavcraft 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dozeydustman Posted June 10, 2019 Share Posted June 10, 2019 Mother in law is now in a hospice. Went to see her this afternoon with stepdaughter. She has been sleeping for 2 days now and breathing very laboured. I sincerely doubt she'll make the end of the week. Got home, took mrs to her evening job, cooked dinner for me and stepdaughter, mum rang up. One of my cousins was taken into a hospice today. She was in remission from ovarian cancer 2 years, but collapsed at the weekend as the cancer reappeared very quickly and aggressively spreading to her liver. My poor aunt over the last few years has lost her younger of 2 sons, her husband and now her daughter isn't long for this world. Looks like 2 funerals now in short succession. Cancer can do one. purplebargeken, Doctormop, chaseracer and 3 others 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Parky Posted June 10, 2019 Share Posted June 10, 2019 Daughter got mugged 20metres from our house. Pair of cunts ran up behind her and nabbed her phone. Mrs P went out looking for them but they were long gone. Phone was shut off in about five minutes, Police informed but fuck all they can do. Neighbours CCTV should have caught it but even with a clear image of it, Plod won’t be able to do anything. Stupid fuckers. Risking a theft conviction for a useless piece of locked plastic. Not to mention one very pissed off Dad. What’s a Samsung Galaxy s9 worth - two teeth? Possibly more if I find them. Nobody hurt so that’s the main thing and it could have been worse. A lot worse. Ironically she had her college Laptop which is worth a fuck ton more than the phone was, thank god they didn’t go for that. myglaren and beko1987 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

busmansholiday Posted June 11, 2019 Share Posted June 11, 2019 Sorting out car insurance for the roffle winning Merc (I know there's a thread for this somewhere but I cba). Confused meerkat gave online of 197 via Saga. Follow link, fill in, comes up 193, winner. Try to pay, try, try, try. End up with web talk, your card should work bollocks. Nope. Ring, go through it all on phone, comes out at 395. FFS, How Much?. Back on web, turns out that despite assurances they don't accept Halifax Visa Electron card. Transfer money to another account, yippee. BUT, don't be taken in by Saga's guaranteed same price for the next three years. They simply add at least fifty quid to this year's quote.

Basically even if my daughter positively identifies them, the images show the kids walking towards her, then a Bush gets in the bloody way so the actual crime isn’t visible. Today I have been dealing with insurance. Despite receipts, packaging, copies of confirmation emails, they want something showing that the IMEI can be linked to me as (their words) “we can’t prove it’s actually your phone you are claiming” Been one of those days.

EssDeeWon Posted June 11, 2019 Share Posted June 11, 2019 public smokers! sorry but it effin stinks. I get off the train in an evening and everyone has to walk from the platform down this ramp that snakes down to the pavement, but some ignorant arse holes spark up once off the train and therefore leaving their ciggy smoke in the faces of those following down the ramp from the station. I mean surely just wait 15 seconds until exiting the station, it fckin stinks when getting a face full of someones fag smoke and there is no avoiding it as everyone is going the same way. Not kids either, grown men in their 50's usually. Sir Snipes, SiC, myglaren and 5 others 6 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lord Sterling Posted June 12, 2019 Share Posted June 12, 2019 Fucking work again. 'oh, you're not putting enough effort into making your Trust Pilot reviews better, its pathetic' FUCK OFF. I'm here to serve customers. If they don't want to leave a review or forget there isn't much I can do about that. Besides, having no stock and not getting it offline fast enough (out of our hands) doesn't help. I've been sending these emails to my personal address in case anything blows up.

purplebargeken Posted June 12, 2019 Share Posted June 12, 2019 I like apples. Just had an apple..... seems like I'm having a bloody allergic reaction, throat itchy, a little short of breath, eyelids swelling. Anti-histamine taken. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

purplebargeken Posted June 12, 2019 Share Posted June 12, 2019 She can go and feck off. I hope so too. I had a similar but less severe thing with peaches. Seems like this is a thing: If you suffer from hay fever (allergic rhinitis) caused by pollen, your mouth or throat may become itchy after eating an apple or celery. This happens in up to 50 to 75% of adults allergic to birch tree pollen. This reaction occurs because the proteins found in some fruits and vegetables are very similar to those found in pollen. These proteins can confuse the immune system and cause an allergic reaction or make existing symptoms worse, which is referred to as cross-reactivity. In the case of pollen and foods, the result of cross-reactivity is called oral allergy syndrome (OAS) also known as pollen fruit syndrome (PFS).OAS is a form of a contact allergic reaction that occurs upon contact of the mouth and throat with raw fruits or vegetables. The most frequent symptoms of OAS include itchiness or swelling of the mouth, face, lip, tongue and throat. Symptoms usually appear immediately after eating raw fruits or vegetables, although in rare cases, the reaction can occur more than an hour later. OAS is generally considered to be a mild form of food allergy. Rarely, OAS can cause severe throat swelling leading to difficulty swallowing or breathing. In a person who is highly allergic, a systemic reaction, called anaphylaxis, may be caused by a pollen cross-reactive raw fruit or vegetable, but this is very uncommon. OAS can occur at any time of the year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
