Random Irritations

My car needs two new front tyres. Not a problem as they have done 32,000 miles and I was planning to get them in a couple of weeks after shopping around. Get up this morning and one of the rear tyres is very flat because it has a screw stuck in it. Rear tyres still have a few thousand miles left in them. Why me?

The dog having yet more health problems. Poor thing. Already has epilepsy. Now going blind and liver problems. Fluid leaking from somewhere into him. Hes only 4. Could be cancer

So sorry to hear that, our 12 year old epileptic Shitzu was on Epiphen for many years.
She had to have blood test every 2 months to check her liver enzyme levels as one of the side effects of these type of drugs is liver damage.
Her medication was changed a few times over the years trying different types but her levels were gradually getting higher.
The vet suggested slowly wean her off the meds and see how it went.
Now 18 months later her liver levels are back to normal and so far she has only had 2 very small seizures .

Worth mentioning to the vet , best of luck and paws crossed xx

Dangerous and a waste of money.
One bright note I heard today - HS2 project is going to stop chopping down trees for the time being. Hope it gets shelved forever.

Is there a documentary about him on the TV tonight? Cunning timing.

Bit like Cameron's autobiography, and all the revelations. He's had over 3 years to trot out all the comments etc, and he just so happens to do it as his book comes out.

A bit like Blair and the Iraq war, Cameron will be remembered for the decision to give a referendum and not all the decent stuff that was achieved when Labour were booted out, leaving the cupboards bare and a massive debt.

Cameron - nice bloke - wanted just to be called 'Dave' - lightweight PM.
Don't blame Brexit for our future woes. Blame Cameron. He nearly lost Scotland from the UK. Now he's lost Europe.

Step away from the mirror although hearing you rant about the Bucs has a similar effect. That and the amber army

House builders winning an appeal to build more houses in the town I live in. It was rejected twice but they know if they get to appeal to the Sec of State it will get approval as they are obsessed with building more homes. Why have local representation and local planning if it is always going to be over turned?

Before the shouts of NIMBY, we have fields and fields of new homes being built. No idea who for, we have no new industry, no new jobs, no influx of overseas migrants. Worse still this new lot are being built by a firm at the forefront of a govt scheme designed to help first time buyers but has in fact netted them hundreds of millions of pounds in profit as they exploit a loophole in the system. Oh yes, their houses are rubbish as well

Aaah Persimmon, as one of their directors said, the McDonald's of house building.

Was it me saying they build rubbish houses that gave it away? 😂

Seen them building round here. Wooden structure on the outside and almost like a build by numbers kit. Been in number of "show homes" and the build quality or lack of apparent even in those

Gammon up the road deciding to dump 2 bin bags of cardboard boxes outside my house. Intelligent of him to leave his address printed on a few of the items though.
