I bought my wife a car last week and the thing is still stuck in Liverpool!
It was due to be delivered on Tuesday just gone.
Having not seen the car in the flesh, I'm getting very frustrated!
How hard can it be to drive a car on the prescribed day?

The impact of Net Zero stupidity, right now we are currently importing 18% of our electricity from Europe. It’s not even a particularly cold evening but we are sending our money abroad and giving jobs to other countries.
Our Electricity costs have doubled in 10 years and our reliance on other countries for Gas and Electricity mean the costs are only going to go up.
What an absolute disaster.

Logistics

Just needs the designated driver to go sick on the day and everything goes pear shaped.

You try phoning a guy on Sunday morning asking him to ditch his weekend plans, get a train to Scotland for a 9 am collection on Monday

👍😬

Conversation I just had at work.
Them: "The client says they are missing a bunch of drawings and sent us a list of them. Can you look into why they are missing?"
Me: "Are they preliminary drawings? Because I have only been issuing them construction drawings as that's what we agreed initially."
Them: "Oh, we've told them we'll send them every drawing."
Me: "Well nobody told me."
Weird how nobody thought it pertinent to tell the person who issues the drawings, what drawings to issue to the client. 😑

While I dont promote using phones while driving.. nor do i like cyclist who think they are always right. But this one divides opinion.. I will let you see this from a driver or a cyclist point of view.
Cyclingmikey is the bloke in London who’s father was killed by a Drunk Driver.

He collects video evidence and sends it to the Police, public opinion is very much split, some see him as a hero and some as a danger!

Some of his videos are unreal about the situations he gets himself in.
