    How low is low? Pics?
  2. Yes that's most likely for an annual permit for her own car. As she is a resident it should be quite easy for her to get you a daily permit.
  3. She should be able to get you a visitors parking permit. It's quite easy if she asks the council.
  4. Was doing OK to start then it all went badly wrong... I just had to play my wildcard!
  5. Take it easy fella. It's happened to us all.
  6. Someone is going to come along in a moment and say it's a R...
  7. With the help of photoshop your sticker can go anywhere you like
  8. Some feedback to save us the bother: "useless item just binned it but good delivery time"
  9. Worst come back ever. Evidently everyone who thinks it's funny hasn't had it happen to them and don't have the brains to imagine what it would be like.

  11. Half the population are below average intelligence, so yes.
  12. .... almost all of which would be exacerbated if the cars involved were speeding
  13. I think it is. In recent months I am sure I have noticed people driving slower and slower. It does my head in. Drivers going 20 in a 30, and 30 in a 40 etc etc. Loads of em. I once asked my dad why he drove fast. He said 'Because if I go slow I will fall asleep." I know exactly what he's talking about. It's not like these slow drivers are any safer. They still don't indicate, they still hesitate and do stupid things like pull out without checking the blind spot, and middle lane "nice n safe & nice n easy" drivers are on the increase too. All in all the roads are gash at the moment. ***This rant may or may not have been induced by a depression brought on by leaving work at 11pm after a 15 hour day knowing that I would have to cook my own dinner when I get in.
  14. This week we have posted out the usual 2-300 or so letters & packets to UK and abroad (I have a mailorder records/CD business) and we are already wasting our time answering emails and phone calls from customers complaining they haven't recieved their goods due to the strikes. Our postman says there is a HUGE backlog at the depot and it's a right mess I know there are alternatives to the Royal Mail eg DHL, UK Post etc, and now seems a good time to explore them. Does anyone have any experience with any of these and if they're any good etc. THX
  15. No wonder the Romanians all want to come here if their transport system is like

    I did hear that but isn't it a bit of a myth?

    Conker season

    When I was a kid it was really hard to find good conkers, all the other kids would nab them first. We used to hoy sticks into the trees to make them fall. Then soak em in vinegar, bake in the oven etc to make them hard for conker fights. For the record, I had a 56-er having left it in the airing cupboard for 2 weeks and covering it with araldite So I went out this weekend to find some with the boy. I was amazed that there are so many of them under the chestnut trees. Tons of em, it's like nobody has been out there gathering them at all. Do kids play conkers these days??? Or has it been banned by health-and-safety zealots scared of their little ones getting conker splinters in their eyes?
  18. This Sunday, first time I have spotted a UK manual in the wild. Nice car!!!
  19. My missus says mine is impatience. When driving I would rather go the long way round which takes longer than the short way which has loads of traffic lights. I simply cannot believe how slowly people walk when they wander around the shops. Just go to the shop, get what you want, go home - quickly! Simple!!! On this board I often go to the last post of a thread and if it's interesting I read it backwards. I can't be bothered to go through from the beginning to see it it's good or not. The shoelaces of all my trainers are always already tied. Etc, etc.
  20. if I lived in Yeovil I wouldn't want the English locals in my shop either

  23. The difference between 'exceedingly unlikely' and 'impossible' is small enough for me to conclude that it didn't happen.
