If the concept of ā€œBlack Fridayā€ isnā€™t bad enough, I see Amazon are running their ā€œBlack Friday Saleā€ for 10 daysā€¦

What bit about Friday being one day, Friday, donā€™t they understand ?

People who sit at traffic lights with their foot on the brake pedal. Generally they also have the brightest lights in the universe tooā€¦

Use your handbrake you twat then maybe I wonā€™t crash into the back of you when I have afterimages blocking everything out.

Donā€™t. Wiggle have been doing it for the whole of November.

Black Friday is now the autumn sale

I do that. I only use the handbrake when I am on an Incline.

The other night I was stuck in traffic jam on the M6 and I noticed in rear view mirror that whenever my brake lights were on, the poor bastard behind would wince, shut his eyes and put his hands over his face. There he would stay, until I took my foot off brake, and it was time to move forward.

Youā€™d think that would stop me, if only out of common human decency, but it didnā€™t. I started taking my foot off the brake, wait till he cautiously opened his eyes, then stomp back on it to give him the full Blinding.

Realising the tickets for the theatre show you are going to tomorrow havenā€™t arrived and you just miss the customer care hours. Hopefully theyā€™ll accept the print out of the email confirmation.

So that was you!

Bastard.

thatā€™s what Iā€™m supposed to say, right?..just picking up the vibe from other threadsā€¦

There has been a noticeable change since heā€™s been part of the soviet Steve, Bob was always the positive, happy-go-lucky one, predicting 3-0 and 4-0 wins for us all over the place, now heā€™s always banging on about how much weā€™re gonna get stuffed in our next match and moaning about safety lights on motor vehicles :lou_sad:

Iā€™d noticed that @btripz had changed but didnā€™t like to say anythingā€¦

I just hope that Tokes and Bear manage to keep it real - and get us all access to the VIP champagne room soon.

Edit: & the fact heā€™s at the top off the leader board as I type this speaks volumes - just saying

Trying to sell things on gumtree. When they ask you to drop it to them the other side of London. No.

When a Windows 10 update fucks up your graphics. Spent hours researching, ā€œgraphics stretchedā€ and finally found a simple solutionā€¦

Device Manager>graphic driver>roll back to previous driverā€¦BINGO!

I may have mentioned before that our neighbours are not very nice people and we avoid them as much as possible. He has been described by another as being ā€œchippy.ā€ He is an angry bloke, always looking for an arguement it seems. I discovered today that back in 2000 he has deputy mayor in Bromley and was arrested for attacking his then neighbour with a baseball bat! Apparently he complained about the noise coming from a neighbours bbq and they came together, beating each other with bats and hospitislizing each other - one with a fractured skull the other with a 3 inch gash in the skull. The CPS eventually dropped the case as they couldnt prove which of the two was the agressor.

Blimey. Time to move?

Nopeā€¦time to get a BIGGER bat.

Perhaps his neighbour was The Mayor and he got humped off with being the monkey and not the organ grinder.

Either way, he sound like a nasty piece of work. I reckon you should get in their first, SOG. Just to put the frighteners on him, like.

This weekend, we celebrate National Day.

We get a public holiday (long weekend) every year (that co-incides with the Rugby 7ā€™s).

Almost every car has a UAE flag on it. Tower Blocks have massive flags draped over them, Even our Apartment foyer has flags and balloons.

Events and celebrations (to which EVERYONE is invited) are happening all across the City, especially a number of maasive firework displays. The Nation takes PRIDE in itā€™s existence.

And then weā€™ve got England who wonā€™t have a National Day in case it offends someone.

People offering ā€˜Ā£17 cashā€™ for something you are selling for Ā£20. Haggling I can cope with, but why say cash? Weā€™re on gumtree mate, i donā€™t accept Amex!
