Random Irritations

[Pathetic Shark]

Wasn't sure to put this here or in Gladden the heart. Next door's bin has just gone belting down the road as it's blowing a hoolie down here today. It stopped me playing golf so an irritation but I did laugh when I saw him chasing after it. Last time I looked, the bin was about 10 yards in front and about to be drug-tested by the IOC.

Typical old fashioned NHS mindset. I'm in the middle of a trust wide project to migrate our medical device training records from a shared spreadsheet to a shared online system. Massive project and IT/Clinical Engineering have done a great job so far. Now as the ICU's dedicated resource, I've got to audit it all to see all the staff and equipment have been migrated. I've managed to sort the staff out, but when you click onto the list of equipment it is so difficult to navigate and the gripe is no-one has thought to give any of the dedicated users any training. They clearly want as clean a set of information for the final migration but haven't given us the tools to provide that

Driving down from Glasgow to Liverpool this evening, horrendous conditions, limited visibility and people still flying past me at ridiculous speeds.
There had been an accident on the M6 at one point in the afternoon, which meant a big diversion of 1.5 hours. Thankfully, it cleared before I got that far.

Tailgaters.
New modern headlights that are so piercing they blind you oncoming and from behind.

Not to worry, the bin will not be more than 15 years old and will be allowed to fly down the road again on Friday when the next storm arrives.

On 21/11 last year I sold a fairway wood on a well known auction site.
Sent it off and thought nothing more about it.
I just had to go into my selling page to check something else and this club is showing just as dispatched and not delivered.
Looking at the tracking it says "Delay - please allow 24 hours...".....
That was 85 days and 2 hours ago...
I'm assuming it's been delivered..?

Plan B restrictions finished on 26th January........
Today is 17th February....23 days.
The bloody useless DVSA have just thought it would be a good idea to let us driving instructors what it means for us in our job....
It's taken 23 days to tell us.....not that I didn't know anyway, I'd worked it out 5 minutes after the announcement but that's not the point.
If I never had any dealings with that useless pile of dung it would be too soon.......

Buy yourself a 2007 Honda Civic. The ludicrous strip of plastic attached to the rear windscreen will block out those tailgating drivers!!

I had the misfortune to have to move one of those on Monday, having never driven one before. The idiot who designed it should be strung up by his genitalia and shot.

I owned one for about 3 years

Whilst you get used to it you are fully correct. It's terrible design flaw

A number of irritations for the same incident

Driving down to Hayling yesterday

Going along at 50 , cars in front brake sharply , I break and because left plenty of space stopped in plenty of of time - white van behind either wasted paying attention or didn’t react in time , went into the back of me

Damage to my car was slight but clearly needs a new rear bumper - his front was badly damaged

Phoned his company to get the details etc - they wanted to do it without going through insurance- ummm no thanks

Today phoned the insurance so i can get the car fully checked out etc


Lady was very nice - 45 mins in total , but 20 mins of it was going on about potential injury etc and where to claim for whiplash etc - they are reading from a sheet but it felt like they were desperate for me to claim for whiplash etc

Thankfully the garage and hire car etc is just around the corner

Glad you’re ok but whiplash often takes a few days to materialize.

If it’s on his insurance, claim for it mate

I'd say Phil's neck looks a bit sore from here......

Agreed on both counts.

One and only time I ever got whiplash it didn’t kick in for three or four days.
