The Reverend Bluejeans Posted November 3, 2018 Share Posted November 3, 2018 Early November is of course the calling of The Moron. Fireworks are of particular interest to The Moron. The Moron finds the big bangs exciting, because he is very stupid and easily pleased. SiC, Uncle Jimmy, hennabm and 9 others 12 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Reverend Bluejeans Posted November 3, 2018 Share Posted November 3, 2018 A client was telling me 2 days before competition the buyer suddenly wanted a periodic test done on the electrics and the boiler servicing. The buyer of the rental house I sold in Jan tried that trick. I informed the solicitors that the sale was now off and that I would put the house back on the rental market. That was the rocket that was needed. They were already a grand and survey charges in........

The Reverend Bluejeans Posted November 3, 2018 Share Posted November 3, 2018 Artilllery here too. Two doors away are re-enacting the Somme barrage. Wouldn’t mind but they are in their fifties and have no kids. Their dogs are going apeshit and my cats are terrified How far can you throw a stick of dynamite? Any tall trees/fences?

Zelandeth Posted November 3, 2018 Share Posted November 3, 2018 They're driving an Audi. Therefore anything anyone else does on the road is a cause for rage. Probably doing 40mph as their teeth will be rattled from their skull if they go any faster should they run over a single errant pebble or twig.

vulgalour Posted November 3, 2018 Share Posted November 3, 2018 Just stressed. Stressed, stressed, stressed. No money to do anything beyond keep things where they are. No ability to push my business into bigger projects until I know what's happening with the house move (10 months, three failed house purchase, and still no closer to getting a house) which means no more money since I can't necessarily meet obligations a bigger project demands while I'm in limbo. People the world over being absolute dicks to other people for no reason other than personal wealth and short sighted cruelty. I just generally feel stuck and frustrated at the moment with no power to change anything. I want to just have a big old rant at someone, anyone, anything, but there's no one place to focus it on. It's all so infuriatingly nebulous. robinmasters and Lord Sterling 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Floatylight Posted November 4, 2018 Share Posted November 4, 2018 Spent all day trying to put together a PowerPoint presentation for a job interview on Tuesday, such a ballache trying to second-guess what they want..

GrumpiusMaximus Posted November 4, 2018 Share Posted November 4, 2018 Had a concert tonight, first one with the new choir I've joined. It was good fun. In a cathedral, etc. Walked out, didn't know where I was going and walked about 3 miles looking for the car park. In a city that I know a bit, I ended up walking in totally the wrong fucking direction. And I'm back in work tomorrow doing tech for a big event. And I'm the only techie. And have a shit ton to transport before I can even start setting up for rehearsals... Concert was good fun, though. Tamworthbay 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
reb Posted November 4, 2018 Share Posted November 4, 2018 Due to our management staffing levels being somewhat suboptimal, I started today at 9am despite not leaving last night after midnight. On a Sunday this amounts to sitting in the shoebox office for hours on end waiting for something to happen. Let's play a game of what awful thing did I forget to do last night! On the plus side, I have a large thermos of niceish coffee. Maybe it won't be so bad after all. Sent from my SM-G935F using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DodgeRover Posted November 4, 2018 Share Posted November 4, 2018 Sorry to hear that Bub, anyway you can check if the wiring to it is correct? If it's earthed and on a modern RCD system it shouldn't give you that much of a shock.At the risk of teaching you to suck eggsOld systemRed liveBlack neutralEarth unsleevedNewBrown - live (fucking stupid choice if you ask me but they didn't)Blue - neutralEarth - unsleeved Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DodgeRover Posted November 4, 2018 Share Posted November 4, 2018 My grump had a call from a family member just got a new to her Meriva on a '59 plate off a lot with a fresh test, making a terrible noise from the front. Took it up the road and wished I hadn't, had to stop to check the wheel wasn't falling off it was that bad.2 new drop arms on the front anti roll bar, both are on upside down, both are loose as there isn't sufficient thread showing for the nyloc bit of the nut to go onto!Seriously who is that sodding thick, got to go and put them right tomorrow after work.
