rant

My rant! I recently acquired a E320 CDI W210 2002 estate which had the usual rust. I sent the car for an inspection to MB Colindale who subsequently agreed to repair the rust on the rear 3/4 panels, bootlid and door tops/bottoms. The car was sent by MB Colindale to M&A Coachworks, their...

I got my car in December and the one thing I was always concerned about was someone nicking the star. So I came out Monday morning very early so still dark and notice the star at a funny angle, so got out to straighten it up and I thought oh well I will just change it for flat one, at least...

Just done junctions 16-18 on the M4 - visibility to normal tail lights was about 1 mile - bends, hills etc meaning the lie of the land limited visibility more than what fog there was did. As "useful" visibility wasn't reduced traffic was moving at its normal 70-80 with some clear gaps. Yet 30%...

Right then, I've just purchased a 2-bed flat in Bristol. It's in a great location, is very nicely decorated, furnished and plenty of gadgets. Basically a cracking flat, very decent size and with views of SS Great Britain. I am also relatively normal :) . I'm currently trying to rent out my...

Well, have to vent somewhere :crazy: Always thought this company half decent - not anymore, my mother has an 18 months old cooker, the dials are fading - won't bore you with the details but it is probable to be design/manufacturing fault. Cooker out of warranty, fair enough, requested...

Rant warning! So I went to the cinema tonight.... The first thing I saw was a rat on the screen that told me not to watch pirated movies - that the sound would be tinny, the visual quality bad and I would see people going to the toilet in front of me... After finding my seat, I realised...

I could go into one about this, but utterly infuriating on so many levels: http://www.thesun.co.uk/article/0,,2-2006530141,00.html (Sorry that was the only link I could find.)

What!!! http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/northern_ireland/6104348.stm As far as I can see a lot goes to replicate Government functions in Northern Ireland to allow "proper devolution" And who pays for this??

My lip is bleeding and I can stand it no longer. The couple that raped a TWELVE week old baby have had their sentences reviewed. The so called 'man' has had his minimum imprisonment increased from six years to eight, although it is allegedly a so called Life Sentence. The woman who actually...

As some may know I'm involved in a youth group. I had a CC letter today saying after a recent review our area has had it funding cut by 1/4. Why you ask. Because we scored 0/15 on multicultural opportunities. During the review although we appeared to encourage multicultural opportunities...

SORRY ALL, just need to vent! When you work in a company should you expect professional courtesy, respect, open lines of communication and honesty? Are these not the building blocks of a successful working relationship and a growing company? Why do people feel the need to lie in order to...

Hi i am sure anyone who has to queue from the Forth Rd Bridge into Edinburgh city centre every morning knows how badly ridden motorbikes are swooping in and out of the traffic. This is fine IF THE TRAFFIC IS GOING BELOW THE SPEED LIMIT DUE TO A Q... the bike then rides up the middle of the...

Okay time to vent spleen – must be an age thing…….Please see disclaimer at the bottom of the page ;) 1) Cars that need to go to the dealer to change a bulb – design philosophy people. 2) My car door, how would these “people” like it if I came round to their houses and took chips off...
