AlexMF Posted April 3, 2012 Share Posted April 3, 2012 bought the fiesta a new passenger side mirror glass to replace a broken one, then broke the new one before i'd managed to fit it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
powerrabbit Posted April 4, 2012 Share Posted April 4, 2012 Did not laugh but gave me a chuckle, went shoping today and picked up a small folded brownish coloured paper, closer but discreet further inspection revealed the Queens head and the number ten, that's my Easter egg sorted!

Rick Posted April 12, 2012 Share Posted April 12, 2012 I shouldn't laugh really, but I did... a man in the US called me 'a jerk' because I opened an Unpaid Item Dispute on eBay. Never been called that before and the thing is it's taken him 2 months to even notice he'd received an Unpaid Item Strike against his eBay account.... I did explain that he would have had at least two automatic reminders directly from eBay and that I only have a 45-day window to reclaim my seller fees (plus I always wait as long as possible before taking action - in this case nearly 3 weeks) Still chuckling though... I'm sure US citizens don't all go about calling each other names and hurling insults to complete strangers, without even considering that they could be in the wrong..do they Pops? Oh I do that all the time, it just slips out..thinking its old age is the reason and four years of abuse by Sean....Oh course never to a lovely lady like you.....

Leakeyvale Posted April 12, 2012 Share Posted April 12, 2012 I don't know whether to laugh or cry. I have a dial type thermometer with a needle pointer that sticks on the outside of a window. A spider has inveigled itself into the dial and has built a lovely web and trapped the pointer. Even in full sun it tells me it is 6C! How on earth do I a) remove the spider and get rid of the web? I cannot open the thing up because it is sealed! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tractorman810 Posted April 12, 2012 Share Posted April 12, 2012 so if its sealed, how did the spider get in then sue?? : :laugh: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leakeyvale Posted April 13, 2012 Share Posted April 13, 2012 so if its sealed, how did the spider get in then sue? ? : :laugh: Because it has a couple of vents at the bottom to allow for expansion/condensation - about 4mm wide at the most .... Aunty Sue must have the most interesting windows in the UK.....She's always got something going on with them.... Outside them, Rick.

powerrabbit Posted April 22, 2012 Share Posted April 22, 2012 Just had to nip next door to take a little wild rabbit away from the cat that brought it in through the catflap before he started tearing it apart on the kitchen floor, my Sister-in law asked me what was the best thing to do with it? It was already dead and not big enough to fry so I said 'put it in the re-cycling bin', my 9 year old Niece said , with a big wide smile and in a dry tone, 'it will then come back as a new bunny!' Roaring with laughter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leakeyvale Posted May 10, 2012 Share Posted May 10, 2012 Yesterday rather than today. I went to the racing kennels where my two dogs came from. Both dogs overjoyed to see the folks and promptly squeezed themselves onto the seats in the caravan alongside me. Spooky decided she wanted to site alongside John on the opposite seat and promptly walked across the table to do so! Pity I did not have a camera handy to snap a large greyhound balanced on the small dinette table! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
david_scrivener Posted May 10, 2012 Share Posted May 10, 2012 I imagine some of you watched the compulsive hoarding TV documentaries on BBC and/or C4. There is a similar long running series (since 2009) on US TV, which has spawned some youtube parodies. I just found this one: 'Hoarders: Barbie' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Udimore Posted May 11, 2012 Share Posted May 11, 2012 Just watched the courier driver unload a pallet of Britains blues but during the process he managed to knock a load of other boxes off the side of the lorry. Don't think my laughing helped his mood. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
