Them's quick, those spidders.

In other news, the Corsa of Nausea has shat its handbrake cable this night.

Arse.

The seller if the Peugeot 405 I was trying to buy for Mrs_b still hasn’t got it sorted (still no MoT) and she hasn’t contacted... so I’m guessing we’re off for that one then... 

*goes back to searching

It's already been the week (and last month or so) from hell, and things just keep taking another turn for the worse.

I can't and don't want to say too much, but my daughter was the (alleged) victim in something deeply unpleasant and we're hoping this week it'll all be over. You think you've turned a corner, but something else gets thrown at you.

I’m not one to complain but honestly, what a prick.

While I was parked up a taxi parked in the same position too, right outside the door and as you can see, over two disabled spaces. 

(Naturally I didn’t go over and insist they move, I’m a natural born keyboard warrior)

At work today.The gravel area on the right is where most people park,the tarmac in the middle is where artics drive down to unload.

I thought the SUV thing was reversing into a space,but it was still there 10 minutes later ?

It's in situations like that where my old Subaru 700 van used to come in handy.  It would just squeeze into a space like the one between the Audi and the [generic grey crossover thing], and I'd then exit via the tailgate. 

 

Well it amused me anyway.

Actually it isn't fair to tarnish them all as I am sure some alright drivers own Audi's but that badge does seem to attract tossers.

I've got an Audi, so fuck you :)

There's a thread for all you parking whingers on Pistonheads, called 'the bad parking thread' surprisingly.

Edited just to say you have redeemed yourself a little with your second comment you posted whilst I was adding my reply:)

Apparently we're sharing the living room with this fucker...

Didn't spot where it ended up going so basically the living room is now cordoned off. d11394db0c959c2a30d6e3af15e2d1b9.jpgdc1e2081f4a9afce0d2990a5ae0122dc.jpg

I've chucked a few out of the window this week but one as big as a mouse has just traversed the floor where I'm sitting at the computer.

A new couple moved in downstairs. Long story short, they guy is an absolute nutjob, screaming his head off most the day like something from the exorcist. Doors slamming, loud bangs, glass smashing, horrendous abusive screams, Threats of "i'll fuck you up you rat", I've never, ever heard anything like this.  Even when someone was murdered more or less right outside my front door a few years back. It's well beyond simple anger, the guy is unhinged in the extreme.

The woman in the house is certainly in danger, and to be honest, i fear everyone in the close is in danger given he sounds like he's liable to torch the place at any second half the time.

Police were up taking statements from all the neighbours this evening, but my guess is he's that out of control, he'll just see it as interference and do something.

Just moved into a downstairs flat. The wife is driving me absolute nuts and I want to tear someone's head off.

Police were round today collecting statements... bloody curtain twitchers getting ideas about me.

I think wankers are as old as creation.

Our hoover washing machine is dying. Been repaired already. Sick of spending £300 on washing machines that only last around three years.

Does anything last these days?

I'll refer you to my posts here

This is really good value the moment, 5 year guarantee as well.

Commiserations Billy, I know exactly where you're coming from.

Within a month, I've had my HGV licence revoked, been diagnosed with type 2 diabetes and Mrs Tet has had a heart attack. Just wondering how many more hammer blows are on the way.

Hope your daughter is ok.

Blew the tyres up on the saab 3 days ago. The 2 front ones were nearly flat this morning. They need re seating. Apparently.6625a329c8207a45ba0da5aba9b27321.jpg

On the plus side the mil has turned off. I had the dongle delivered yesterday. Typical.
