Old Steam Room

31 Oct 2005

Went out clubbing to Torture Garden with my m8's from SH on Saturday and when we returned to my car at about 5am, my car door had been prized open at the top mad

Basically the car door was still shut (they couldnt get in) but the top rim was no longer touching the the frame of the car (following confused

)
Makes me so angry, Its a fairly old car now (an M reg) and i've had her from nearly new, looked after her so well, cleaning inside and out, regular servicing and shes been so reliable, yet some bloody scrotes feel they have a right to damage other people property. Just in the last few months, someone ripped off my aerial and someone else reversed into my door whilst it was in a car park :x :x :x

If you mean they have bent the window frame out, provided you are careful, you can normally bend it back in again....... hope this helps, and yes it is totally mindless, bleedin scrotes :x

If you take the window down, open the door and stand on the inside of the door (bracing it with your knee) you can easily pull it back into line. I have to do it regularly at work!! :? :? :?

That would explain the police convoy escorting the van as it goes past my flat every night. Do tell them to keep the noise down Sarge, there's a good fellow :grin:

If you are to compile a no-show list..... with a 3 strikes and you're persona non grata.......
Shouldn't each person be considered on their own merits???
I had to put in my apologies for the Notts Munch this year, due to a pressing committment, and then on Saturday, I had to be back in Somerset for 9pm, thus was unable to stay for the Plymouth Munch.
Admittedly, i have sent pm's to both organisers stating why i could not attend, but as this now equates to 2 no-shows......... am i on my last chance?
Things happen on a day to day basis within all of our lives.... and sometimes we are unable to fulfil commitments made weeks in advance.

I think the problem is with those people who don't show and also don't let the organisers know.......... In your case you informed prior to the event on both occasions, so If I understand it right, you wouldn't be on anybodys list

I think I mentioned earlier in this thread, I am willing to talk to anyone that gets to 3 no shows beforeI speak to any future munch organisers

equi... as a munch organisor... the problem isn't with the people who let you know beforehand... it is with the people who don't let you know at all.... and still don't have the common decency to let you know afterwards... no explanation no nothing....
It would be interest for helen to get back to us and see if any of the 55 have gotten back to her now????....or are the like of duncanlondon still unrepentant about what they did...

AAARRRGGGHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!! I almost give up evil

We recently updated our ad asking for guys to meet us for a drink with a view to possibly taking it further at some point.
Our profile and ad both show our location as Bournemouth Dorset. So why do we keep getting replies asking us variously if we travel - so far to Buxton, Derbyshire, Exeter Devon, London, Middlesex, Cardiff and even Norfolk?!?! dunno

Can these guys not read do you think, or are they just complete timewasting tossers? :roll:
Maybe I should go alter it to specify that we want someone localish, although when we had that on there before, we were told by one guy he was within local travel distance . . . he was in Gloucester :huh: lol

Off to make a cuppa and calm down . . . and spend the next 2 hours wading through my emails in the vain hope of finding someone within 50 miles of Bournemouth wink

:lol2:

Just been catching up on the comments about Munches, and non attendants.
Of the two Meets down here. The first meet had 23 people come, with 10 non appearances without a PM. So rather than having 33, we had 23 people.
The second Meet, just gone had 30 people come, with a further 13 non appearances without a PM.
As an organiser, i did find it rude that some people could not even PM me with an apology.
I also noticed with the second meet, that a few people I gave the benefit of the doubt, and again invited, once again failed to turn up.
I have kept a list of those that did and didn't come, to the last two events, and shall refer back to them if necessary in the future.

And after saying that minx I hope you are feeling better.......... people like that are just not worth it.
At the end of the day, they are either just trying to provoke argument or are incapable of reasoned thought. Just move on and ignore them smile

Remember never discuss politics or religion as in general, there will be no reasoned conclusion to a debate.

This is not a rant. Just a comment.
I don't have "free" access except during the day or I would have commented in the Leeds Lad thread. "What's happening to the country?" or something of this sort.
We were in Australia in 1999 and in conversation with an Australian we were asked if it was not time that the British left Ireland.
I hadn't the heart to answer but I thought the question was a bit much coming from a white man living in Australia.
Sorry. I don't expect a reply. Delete this if you want.

The problem is that obviously other countries get a different view of the news to what we do.... I expect he was hoping to get someone's view that was closer to it all then he was... To be honest I probably would ask the question myself if I was limited to the news they get... I honestly hope that it wasn't an agressive question, but more of an inquisitive one...

Shireen,
No, not aggressive - just conversational. We go to Australia every couple of years and we have never seen anything but courtesy and friendliness in any of the people we have met.
As far as we can see there is absolutely no anti-british feeling there. "Where is Yorkshire (they pronounce it York Shyer). Is it anywhere near Lanca Shyer?"
A couple of years ago the Australian people were asked in a referendum whether to keep the Queen as Head of State and they voted to keep the Queen.
No, the question wasn't aggressive. It was conversational. I din't react to it.
