barmatt Posted December 21, 2019 Share Posted December 21, 2019 Pcn number 2 from the c*unts that have cloned my plates dropped through the letterbox today. So that's another appeal I've sent off as it's a different company, but this company seem to have potato cams in their car parks making playing spot the difference a little more difficult but I got a few none the less. Doovla said they might issue me another number plate in the future but they want to leave this for a while in the hopes that the scumbags will get pulled over and nicked. What's the chances?

Yeah, it's a nationwide marker apparently so I'll set off anpr cameras too. I've got the relevant info in the car just in case but it's still a pain.

I don't understand how they can't just issue me a new plate and leave the other as being stolen but the chap at the dvla said they couldn't do that. Obviously they didn't specify how much time I'd have to wait either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
angle Posted December 22, 2019 Share Posted December 22, 2019 The year is 2004. In Renault design HQ, surrounded by boxes of unused voice synthesisers, a junior designer working on the Laguna facelift approaches his boss. 'Monsieur, I 'av almost finished with ze interior design, but I 'av a question' 'Mais oui, Pierre' 'Ze gap between ze drivers seat and ze centre console, 'ow big should it be?' 'Zut alors Pierre, ze same answer every time! Big enough to drop your phone down' 'But also big enough to put your hand in, so you can get it back?' 'Ahahahahahahahahaha.

HillmanImp Posted December 22, 2019 Share Posted December 22, 2019 As I'm clearing out all of Imp Jrs broken and rubbish toys I probably need to get rid of mine too. Got that Cosworth from Hamleys in 1984 but its got no rear wheels or aerial or controller. The Buddy pump cars dont pump anymore. djim 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jakebullet Posted December 22, 2019 Share Posted December 22, 2019 Just had a marvellous* weekend. My lady has migraine, which can mean personality switch. This time to mega nasty. She announces she "want's a fucking drink". Is that wise given it will make you worse and extend it for days? Well done Jake, you've lit the blue touch paper. Closest I've ever come to giving her her key back and sodding off. Great depression to add to the fun of it being Christmas.

chodweaver Posted December 23, 2019 Share Posted December 23, 2019 depends on how much it cost you at the salon getting your hair done. last time i had my barnet done, wash, cut and dry was £40. i think. though a man's haircut, including the reading of the paper, discussion of the football results and your holiday plans should come in under a fiver. that's why i was displeased with getting my hair done, only for it too be messed up by the wind and rain on the way back to the car...... I'd gladly pay £40 for a decent haircut that DIDN'T include any newspapers, daytime tv, muzac (whether correctly public entertainment licensed or not), discussion about football or holidays - in fact, my ideal barber would be a mute, non smoker with no tattoos, good personal hygiene (including not coughing into his sleeve) and no interest in anything except cutting my effing hair. Every haircut I've had at any barber's in the last twenty years has been improved by a torrential downpour.

Jerzy Woking Posted December 23, 2019 Share Posted December 23, 2019 Found some (hard to get hold of) brackets on ebay, so bought them. Delivery by 20th Dec. Cool. Still not received the email with the barcode to collect them from the pick up point, so contacted the seller. He tells me they were collected on 16th and signed for. Well, not by me they weren't, as I was in Spain until 17th. So used the tracking number i have via ebay on the Hermes site. No number exists according to them. And it's up to the seller to do all the non delivery claims now. So, how could the parcel have been collected without the barcode being sent to me, or the collect place having someone produce my ID? Oh yes, Hermes. They really are cunts. myglaren 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The joys of not having an actual reason for a fight, but the fight HAS to end in the wee hours. Now I'm in office, after 4 hours of "sleep". "Looking forward" to the days off.

Turkey has not quite defrosted yet, but got the giblets out and put it back in the Christmas fridge. Son, is on his way, but I've lost one of his presents. Ah well.
