Random Irritations

I hate driving anywhere in this country. Roads too busy and the standard of driving is shocking. I'd have to say mainly by artics - which are usually very dangerous on the A14. Having seen the news article about drivers being in demand and getting big pay increases I wonder if their arrogance on the road is on the rise!

I agree, most really do not give a ?
Cars are just as bad at times but the driving standard of the lorries has become awful, bullying their way down the motorways.
 
Saharan plume…. Current temp in the sun is 47*C. The U.K. might suffer when it rains/snows but we also get to stay indoors sometimes too.

Having just driven up from Silloth to Forfar today, lost count number of times we were cut up by drivers leaving it too late to exit motorway ?
 
Only a minor irritation as we are not in any hurry but we bought a small 6x6 summerhouse this morning, yes sir we can deliver that to you in late January! Shed and home office companies have certainly benefited during the last year or so.

Expect the price has gone up too, I have a small project, wickes is easy for me and usually well priced and I get 10% off, went to order today and wood prices up 30% from 3 weeks ago.

Luckily orderd the wood I needed before the price rises. Garage conversion to bar and gym done externally so just ned the walls boarded and insulated and flooring put in. New patio finished so all good for the rest of summer once my lawn grows back after hacing machinary and bags for sand on it for weeks.

Apparently they are increasing their prices as from next Monday so for a change we timed it ok.
 
Just read on the civic forum.that they recommend cam belt replacement at 75k miles and they charge £1800 to do it ?
Think I'll be changing it before then

Jus t phoned up to book my service and asked about this, 1 litre is a belt in oil and recommend change at 8 years or 75K, I'll be long shot of mine by then.
 
The people who come on Sky News in the morning around 7a.m. to have an interview with Kay Burley who I dislike, “My viewers“! The said interviewee when asked a question has a pre determined reply ready and does not answer the question. This was in evidence more than normal today with the response from the lady who was questioned


Please answer the question
