We did, it's lucky I went out the back when I did as he was nearly finished, he was up there arguing the toss about our roof being pitched and his flat. He then resorted to threats about blocking our gutter so we'd have to put our own downpipe in, we then said go ahead and we'll do the same to his at the front. We came inside as I was starting to lose my rag and when I went out later he had put it back to his side. What sort of Pratt does something like that without talking it over with you first.

Especially considering all the trouble your brother Insey Wincey had with them...

People who actively "feed" their young kids fizzy drinks. I know it's down to people what they do but when you see parents constantly giving their 3 year olds cans of coke I can't believe what I'm seeing.
Went round to a house once for some drinks, they are moaning that the kids get through too much pop. They had bought about 8 2 litre bottles of Coke and their kids drank it by the pint glass.
Also no surprise why the kids were wide awake at midnight with school the next day.

When you need things sorting on your car and the places you get quotes from think you don't know how to use the internet or how to phone up dealers yourself to see what things cost.
£188 for a part that costs £68 direct from the parts department to an end user.
To think some people don't check and just end up paying triple of what it should really be.

Usually the people saying that have little work to do. Those who are overwhelmed tend not to have the time to tell you!

Said it before on here, but well worth bringing up again....drivers that go over red lights well after the lights have turned red.
Pretty much the usual now for the lights to turn red and then three cars still to go over afterwards.
The junction going towards Jubilee Crescent (Bruce Road one way, Beake Avenue in two directions and Links Road down to Jubliee) has become a death trap.
Have now seen (and this is no exaggeration) at least 7 crashes there now in 4 months and that's obviously just the ones I see and have to manoeuvre past. I only go down there twice a week. Can only begin to guess how many more incidents there have been.
Always seems to be someone either turning right out of Links Road onto Beake Avenue, or turning right from the other side, Bruce Road onto Beake Avenue in the opposite direction.
Often see at least 3 cars going over on red after the lights have changed and of course those waiting to turn left or right from Bruce Road or Links Road can be stuck in no man's land.
Going to be a death there for sure in the not too distant future.

Otis have they done anything with the house the bus ran into?

Still scaffolding all around it. Funnily enough we were talking about that very thing this morning. Where are the family? Have the bus company or insurance been paying for them to live in a hotel?
Not much sign of much happening.

Ohh....
We have a fiver stuck in our fridge. It's an AK47.
Tis ridiculous though. You look on eBay and they are selling (or asking) for anything between a fiver and £60,000.

Ok, I'll bite. Why do you have a new fiver in your fridge?Ohh....

At a previous house one of our neighbours had a stolen car driven through their front door it took about twelve months to get everything sorted.
Maybe the insurance is still dealing with stuff.

Can't say I have ever agreed with him on anything myself. Haven't heard him talk that much though in truth.

I just find him spiteful and rather unpleasant. Seen him a few times on the Big Questions and always found him a bit disrespect to other guests.

Going out and drinking a quarter of what I would 10 years ago (when I'd wake up feeling fresh and raring to go) and feeling like utter crap!

Have virtually given up alcohol now for that very reason!
Otis

Yeah. It used to be just one drink for me. I drink and I would get a headache. My body must have an adversion to alcohol. Doesn't matter if it is wine, beer, or spirits.

Likewise it's my first proper drink since my wedding day, I'll have the odd beer in an evening or if I'm up the Rugby but not to the level of last night!
Went out with my mate for a couple (admittedly it turned into a couple of dozen) but I feel awful!

How old are you ISSS? I'm 29 and and a hangover is a two day affair of feeling like I want to die.

28, trying to crack on otherwise I will be done for the day if I sit around!
Somewhere between 22/23 hangovers became a thing now 7/8 pints and I'm absolutely done for!
