Got a workmate who nobody will ride as passenger with as he`es such a crap driver. I`ve lost count of how many cars he`es smashed up since I`ve known him. I`ve never known a guy try to drive, light a ciggy while pouring a coffe and answer the phone before :shock: :shock: :shock: He even backed in the Mayor of Christchurch`s private car in the council car park, trapping his wife inside :shock: Apparently, statistics have narrowed down South Yorkshire drivers as the very worst in the country (according to a TV programme I saw) and my workmate hails from ......... Rotherham!!!
At last year`s Dorset Steam Fair, there was a firm making up number plates on-site. While I didn`t get any made then (couldn`t remember my reg. no!)I did get them to mail order me a couple of spare plates for my two trailers, for which they only wanted my credit card details. No other info was required. I also got them to make up two plates with my username on. I told them that this was for "show perposes only". Again these were supplied without question. The firm was from the Midlands.
As for comments about the spacing of letters, how many times have you been unsure of what the number is because 1`s have been spaced next to H`s or similar? Bugger the BB camera`s reading them, I may need to read them too!

I`ve just bought a ruddy great ex-MOD trailer so I can carry my friends Rainbow troup at the local Xmas parade. It`s only for a couple of hours each time and I used to borrow a trailer from work but it took a whole day to set up and another day to take down again So now I can set up at my leisure!
So now I can set up at my leisure! I`m in the middle of compiling a list of everyone who has responded to DD and will foward it on to her. She is trying her luck elsewhere, so you may still see her about! Those who PM ed me have had there message fowarded and DD sends her thanks for those.
Oh, and Hi Anais! Long time, no see!

Suppose I am being "green" by saving all of my aluminium drink cans, but instead of letting the council have them, I keep them in my "store" then take them to the local metal recyclers myself, the money then going back into buying whatever! I use Tesco Saver lager as a slug killer, put into yogurt pots sunk into the ground. I burn wood on my log burner and try to salvage as many broken pallats as I can from the skip at work as they make fine kindling. Oh, and because I can, I save ordinary metal and that goes for more "beer tokens" too!

I went to an ATM a few years ago outside my bank and got a tenner out (yeah I know broke and eeking my money out) I had to go into the bank to get it changed for 2 fivers and they refused the note as it was a fraud :shock:
After a huge fuss and ages arguing back and forth with my receipt as proof that I had got the money from their till, they exchanged it. But only as a goodwill gesture according to them

There was an article on Radio 2 about dud money a few months ago. A school girl drew £100, ALL of the money she had in her account, from an ATM outside of a Tesco store. EVERY ONE of the notes from the machine was dud. She did get her money back but not without a struggle! You would have thought that a bank would at least check for dud money first before its put in a machine

Britain has the hightest landfill figures in Europe.
The European law now has power to fine our councils for going over set landfill targets. These costs will be past on to us in the form of higher council taxes.
British households dump just under a third of all the food they buy, although half is inedible waste
Most of waste food goes into landfill sites, where it breaks down and causes greenhouse gases.
Quotes from BBC News and Guardian

Ahhhhh the old "Greenhouse Gas" chestnut again.....
Isnt that why the goverment are taxing the arse off the motorist as well
Sure somebody somewhere thought being part of Europe was a good idea
Well one farm finds enough methane from rotting food and pig effluent to burn it off to make electricity. The food comes from local supermarkets - truck loads of it :shock:
(As seen on BBC1 Breakfast this morning)
You can get a thing that is the size of a rolling pin that has to be buried completely in the ground and it vibrates periodically. Their success depends on the ground they`re in as some soils transfer the vibrations better than others. Find these things at your local agricultural/equestrian suppliers. You MAY find then at a garden centre depending who they are.
Have you thought about having a small trailer to carry the big stuff around? Need to have the space to park it, of course, and some decent security when it`s parked.
Whatever you buy, check the service history AND if there is any doubt whatsoever, GET THE ENGINE CAM BELT REPLACED. Will cost about £200 to get it done, but it`s peace of mind that this component will not fail and wreck the engine.

Well I phoned my husband from my bedroom to bring me a cup of tea upstairs when he was downstairs watching the telly ... bless him he did it too ... he is lovely.
So what have any of you lot done that would be regarded as cheeky

You dont deserve him - well you do, but you dont - oh hell, you know what I mean!
Wild rats carry some really nasty diseases - Weals disease and leptosporosis (?sp?) They are quite incontinent and pee everywhere, so those of you who keep foodstuffs outside, animal or human should wash the foodstuff thoughorly if it cant be covered.
As for getting rid of them, get your local council in. If you are a private household, they should do this for free, otherwise, go to your local farming/horsey suppliers and dont be afraid to buy the most expensive - I am having very good results with pasta baits - look like blue tea bags and smell like bubblegum. A home remedy that I`ve yet to try is to mix dry porrige and Plaster of Paris together and leave of a plate where they run. Dont forget to leave out water for them as well - most rat baits work by making the rats drink like it`s going out of fashion, which in turn, makes them "drown". Obviously, for the Plaster of Paris mix its to set the P of P. Puts a new slant on shitting bricks!

What everybody else has said, celebrate their life!Sadly, memories of my Dad are now fading as he died 30 years ago, but the most vivid was turning into the church at his funeral ...... to see all of the cars that belonged to relatives and friends, then going into the church to find it packed. It was a real comfort to know how well he was liked!
