The grumpy thread

[EssDeeWon]

Murray losing again is a grin for me 

 

Sorry.

[purplebargeken]

Can't abide the bloke or his family.

[cort16]

What about his mints?

[dollywobbler]

I'm grumpy because I was trying to hide from the result before watching the highlights. DOH!

 

To be fair though, you can play absolutely brilliantly and still get beaten by a better player. Better to get beaten than just blow it by ballsing it up. Like the story in the other semi-final.

Murray's mum scares the shit out of me ...

Mk4 Golf is OBD2 compliant, in Europe all models sold after 1/1/2001, and all new models introduced after 1/1/2000 had to have the port.

However, the cheap readers are known not to work very well - it'll work fine on a megabucks Snapon device, annoyingly.

The closet vag lover was on lunch when i did it. Mentioned it to him after and he immediatly said the same, it may not be basic obd compliant to force people back to vag to have it plugged in.

 

Fair play to torque though, it ran every protocol it had 3 times before giving up!

Nine hours in sodding Sunderland tomorrow.

Try a week in Cambridge. I feel your pain.

[The Moog]

Ha ha ha ha ha. NO.

 

There's an ongoing saga on the power seller board where punter bought a fish tank heater, and sent it back as defective. Came back with the plug cut off and jammed in a different box. Ebay's droids announced that it had been sorted. Seller announced he'd been shafted and ebay had given the punter a full refund.

 

TLDR: Buyers can do anything they like.

Fuck it. Gave him his money back. Life is too short

[fordperv]

Fuck I've just lost "the game"

Housing Association house next door has recently got some new tenants. All seemed well for a while. Now the son of the woman has moved in. Must be at least 35, no job and doesn't want a job according to the overheard loud conversations. Got an American Bull Terrier that lives in the shed and never seems to go out for a walk, two or three cats and no lawn mower. The son seems to spend his time sleeping, shouting at the dog in the shed to "fucking shut up" and playing loud music.

Brilliant.

No stereotypes there then.

I like Cambridge.

 

I don't live there though!

I would love to shag his mum. Just so that, after she had squirted, I could loudly call out "Love - Deuce"

Made my day the scruffy tosspot lost at toss a ball over a net game, fecking wanker

[EssDeeWon]

Nevermind, he'll have to put his Union Jack Scottish flag away for another year.

[MarvinsMom]

that fat gurning twat alex salmon wasn't at wimbledon been a cunt again was he?

[jakebullet]

I don't know why, but Scotland appears very capable of producing sports people to hate. I used to feel the same about Stephen Hendry too.

 

Maybe Ireland got the love me gene instead? Or it's easier to like horse jockeys than knob jockeys.

[MarvinsMom]

or it could be just that the jocks mentioned above have all the personality of a fly blown week old dog turd?

[Lacquer Peel]

Are there any likeable sports people? I always thought "Sports Personality of the Year" was a misnomer.

I like that Andy Murray doesn't give a shit about being a "sports personality".

[DVee8]

What are you doing in Sunderland?

[cms206]

What are you doing in Sunderland?

Waiting to head back north again... kids football I think.

[DVee8]

A mate I went to school with stays in Chester-le-Street so he's coming down. I'm not allowed to walk the streets in case I buy another Volvo - nearly ended up with another 740GLE yesterday.

Not allowed to walk the streets?! You make it sound like you been chained to the bus!

[Richard]

The last time I was in Chester-Le-Street I bought a Renault. It's dangerous out there.

It's safer that way for everyone, Bubs...

[bub2006]

I can imagine fella.

[DVee8]

I live in Chester le street and I am heading to Sunderland

[beko1987]

Well an hour after i got back I thought id check my parts...

 

1 bottle of oil, check.

1 drop link, check

1 track rod... Ffs.

 

Back this afternoon then. Guess which box i opened and checked whilst there...

[EssDeeWon]

^^Is this euro car parts? I was looking to use them for some bits soon, I think I will insist on getting everything out on the counter and cross checking it with the receipt. I know that sounds anal but all I hear about ECP is missing and wrong parts!!
