Random Irritations

[Imurg]

Imo it's another example of how modern cars are massively over-engineered......too many things to go wrong.....

And not so modern cars.
On my VW corrado you had to drop the front end to change the headlight bulbs

No such problems on my Golf; you just need to train a capuchin monkey to put it's tiny arms through the minuscule gap to reach the bulbs. Only need to do it once every 5 years but it takes that long to train them.

That was common on a lot of VWs...my first driving school car was a 54 plate Polo and I dreaded a bulb going....
Although that wasn't really over-engineering...just bloody awful design

guys, the body worn camera irritation has clearly morphed into a discussion. Had a couple of reports asking that if people want to discuss it further, a separate thread is created.

Please do so if there’s more to say.

Thanks

Returning members who make zero effort to disguise the fact they're returning members.

Been a few recently, great fun guessing who they are

Not a problem if they’d previously asked for their account to be deleted but if anyone thinks we have a returned banned member, please report it.

I can't be bothered.
The World will keep turning, so I let them do what they want
However, if you leave and return under a different moniker it does suggest a somewhat sorry existance

I used to work at a massive government site, there was a good few thousand worked there, you only got an on-site parking space once you had been there for about 5 years, such was the waiting list.

There was a housing estate nearby, folk would park there much to the annoyance of the residents. One guy I worked with used to park outside the same house. The owner would leave notes on the windscreen asking him not to park there, which he ignored. One day he went back to his car after work to find that every window was covered in newspaper stuck to it with wallpaper paste.

He never parked there again. Just a thought.

I would post a picture of that but what the balloons spelled out would get me an infringement.

Hardly a matter of national importance so I'm reluctant to post, but it irritates me that my BMW's boot keeps randomly auto-closing on my head when I'm fiddling about with stuff inside it. I know what causes it but it's still irritating.
But enough about me - carry on with the socio-political stuff.

Are you sure there is nobody else pressing the other remote

Hope you have seen the you tube video.

 

[Doon frae Troon]

No, but I do however check the validity of stuff I read as opposed to just taking it as read and spread lies and misinformation on forums.

When I read stuff and think 'well that is utter tosh'.
I check the source and it is generally the Daily Express or GB News.

Felon Mask and his constant braying on his interpretation of the situation in the UK

Don’t know what you mean

For protection, the cost of having a Police helicopter, most of the afternoon, over the Harehills Mosque in Leeds, just a mile down the road.

Lovely day out in Southend with the kids. My parents joined us and we're staying down there for dinner and coming home by train.

This is where I get sad and angry reading the txt off my dad

"Just leaving Westcliffe
Shops all shutting early due to possible riots tonight
How sad"

They got home safe of course about an hour ago it's just pathetic action by a few morons

5 years in prison for just stop oil which whilst is blooming annoying how can the courts hand down 3 years to someone who punched a police officer amongst other things in these riots.

Id say a peaceful protest that just causes travel chaos shouldn't be more in prison for people punching our heros who put themselves on the line to protect our streets. What a disgrace

If I was the richest man in the world I'm sure I could think of many better ways to spend my time. What a sad guy.

I wonder why they bother. I wouldn't.

And he wonders why lots of big companies don't want to advertise with him.

I guess he's run out of porn to watch

Hard to work out what his motivation is, might just be the threat of regulation with the U.K. “Online safety act” that comes into force in 2025 that he is not happy about?
