    Another eBay rant....

    I have just sold a van via eBay. I told the buyer every little problem that I knew of, which in hindsight, was a daft thing to do. He has since been in touch saying that I didn't tell him that the rear cab interior light wasn't working and that I have mislead him! A 6 year old van! It just...

    Todays Rant From Me

    Well, even though it's the weekend, I'm still annoyed :( I should probably start off by saying I'm a machinist/CNC programmer/toolmaker. Basically my supervisor has been working on the same 2 jobs since Wednesday morning, they're prototype jobs but haven't been priced as such on the promise we...

    Idiot car buyers - a rant

    Only been a year since I sold a car on Autotrader, but the increase in the amounts of idiots who cant even speak properly is getting on my tytz. Plenty calls for my c203k, but questions like "is it petrol or diesel", "what does it do to the gallon?", "is it a nice colour?" are just a few of...

    High price of travel this christmas - rant

    I've been trying to book some cheap flights away this Christmas, (same as every year) but for some reason this year even the bucket airlines are far from cheap. I'm looking at around 3 times the price I'm used to paying and there was I thinking demand would be lower and prices cheaper...

    Rant Rant Rant!

    So. Went away for a couple of weeks (part fun, part business). A few days before we went, my Mercedes told me that it definitely needs a new loom (£600) - and I hope that's all it is. An hour before we went away, Mrs Doofus had a shower and the bloody thing wouldn't turn off. Even when I...

    A Monday rant

    One of the less enjoyable parts of my business is touting for new business. I do that in several ways, but one of them is to make appointments to see people who think they don't need my services, and then to try to convince them that they do. It's not the most reliable method, but it's a...
