Jazoli, any chance of a link to the smx please. It could potentially fill my role of quirky estate.

Arse! The BM has sprung a pinhole leak in its radiator. K-seal FTMFW (I hope, otherwise it is a new rad  :-( )

What kind of BMW?

 

E46's tend to distort the lower part of the rad and start leaking.

Scirocco had a FTP. Just a flooded carb, so time and Start Ya Bastard cured it, but made me realise how vulnerable I am with only one snotter currently roadworthy.

It is an E46 and due a replacement rad soon. this leak is coming from the top somewhere

I was dreaming. I was just about to take a huge bite out of the most delicious looking cake ever. Shortly after I awoke rapidly in huge pain where I'd bitten my tongue. Bastard imaginary cake!

Just found out why I still ain't got my disabled parking space: the council have put the price up by a tenner (now £345!) and so rejected my application as the cheque was for the wrong amount. They at no time thought to tell me....

 

So, new forms on there way. What a fooking ballache!

 

Also, still got problems with TV reception so thought I'd ring Virgin as they keep sending me vouchers and offers.... I can have a lovely new tablet free if I sign up to a package that costs about four million quid, if I get a more reasonable package I gain a whole ten channels over the freeview I currently have. For those ten channels, I pay the bargain price of £21 per month!

Had a message about the fiesta on ebay - can I clarify why it's tax exempt - the ad reads "no tax due to new rules."

 

For fucks sake.......

300E battery flat as Lincolnshire.  Again.  Something's draining, somewhere...

Was just about to pop a cheeky bid on an ebay "bargain" car when the twat pulled it with 30 minutes to go .... all the research and watching for nothing.... sometimes I H9,000 this particular breed who put their chod on as an auction with a low start price and then pull it because it didn't reach the 20 zillion pound mark they wanted before the end but are too stingy/ ignorant to set a reserve because it costs £7.99. 

And breathe.......

Send the seller a message saying you'll pay the 20 zillion or so that he wants for it.

 

Then send another message half hour before collection time and withdraw.

I pulled the xm with 1 bid after coalnotdole got in touch, I got a message afterwards asking why I pulled it, I said it developed a leak from somewhere so scrapped it... Did feel bad for a while..

 

The company I work for have had a bad day in the news, glad I work in the safety of head office and another division of the business entirely but it's been a sobering day. The ceo was close to tears when he told us all.

Losing a sock means you have been kidnapped by aliens....

Just seen this "transcript" on a faceache car selling page...and I quote...

 

Person A: "where about r ya mate"

 

Person B (location)

 

Person A "just c if i can get a lift if not r u nere the train stasion"

 

Person B "no delivery"

 

Person A "i didet ask that mte"

 

Person B "Come, let's see if you like it buy the if no to no"

 

.......What on actual fucking earth was that? It made literally no sense AT ALL. As for the grammar - astonished does not cover it. Have we all really turned into a nation of lazy spellers? Seems like we have. I despair for the future.

Hey Beko, I thought of you today when I heard the news ont' wireless.

Glad your position seems to be safe for the time being.

Posted

Lol cheers! Benefits us as the company isn't loosing money as a whole any more, so hopefully more money in the bonus pot.

 

Bit of a pisser though for all the work that went in, the hr manager went from smoking every so often to being outside ever half hour when they did the big recruit! Hopefully someone invests and it can all be turned back on again!

Just for clarity this must be a different coalnotdole?

You could be right, K seal seems to have done the trick. Will have a good shufti at the weekend

That might be the expansion tank.

Might not even be coalnotdole at all thinking about it....

 

I really cant remember who has the XM now which is a shame as I found the sunroof motor and a few other bits the other day...

Too fucked off with work at the minute,everything than can go wrong has gone wrong lately, so I'm sat at home instead. I'd rather not go to work as that way nothing can go wrong

 

QED

 

The plus side is I'm watching the nw200 on bbcsport :)
