Right now, bloody street racers tearing up and down the mad mile. I'm a total petrolhead and love all that stuff but FFS up and down time and time again with exhausts far louder than any bikes we get up here. Once or twice fine, but then fcuk off somewhere else!

Not too loud, but it's been going on for nearly an hour now and it's pissing me off. And the continual kill switch/anti turbo lag explosions from the exhausts. Tossers.
yeah yeah

There's hardly a straight piece of road furniture on that stretch of road anyway without any assistance from me and a stinger!

having a dual fuel van that apparently requires both types of fuel to be available to run
ok not strictly true
its an unleaded / lpg transit....now you can run the lpg dry and it will still run on unleaded .......but you just try running the unleaded dry and running on lpg........ut ahhh.....doesnt work ....
for starters it will only start on unleaded and then you can switch to lpg
but...BUT you must have unleaded in the tank for it to continue running on lpg
if you dont the fucker just dies on you at the M26/M25 junction even though you have over half a tabk of lpg and you spend 4 hrs waiting for the Arseholes Annonamous to decide who is going to rescue you ....3 calls from 3 different engineers
Oh dear sir thats a dangerous place to be stopped you are a priority call and we will be with you within the hour .......4 hrs later.....transporter arrives and takes me to clacketts lane where i fill with unleaded and he pisses off leaving me with a dead battery waiting for his mate to come and boost start the van. |

You connected the red one to the terminal with the "+" and the black one to the terminal with the "-" did ya?
I would have thought that the charger would have short circuit protection built in? 
If your battery was, as I suspect on it's last legs (hence me having to push 800tons of dead Triumph) then putting it on a charger may well have been pissing in the wind as there was probably a dead cell or two in there

Having to repeatedly explain to a merrycan repeatedly that the UK use a different format for dates... ie DD/MM/YY rather than MM/DD/YY which is why his proof of delivery said to him that something had been delivered before it was sent . 'Kin burger munching 'tard  no wonder I couldn't get [url=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Uzae_SqbmDE!]this[/url] out of my head...
And breathe

That's why when dealing with my often myopic countrymen back home, I've taken to writing the dates as '24 Nov 2009' in order to be as unambiguous as possible. They mean well, just most aren't familiar with anything that's outside the 20 mile radius of what they've known their whole lives. (One of many reasons why I live on the other side of the world! )

Just think how boring your job would be if you didn't have the occasional wacky Merrican to laugh at!

Not so much pissed off but still wanted to post .
I interviewed a chap this morning. He has not worked for the last 2 years due to looking after his terminally ill wife. They both had worked hard all there lives and were looking forward to retirement together. Now he faces his twilight years without plans and is somewhat lost .
Made me think of what we take for granted all too often.

Yeah that's true enough, sad the way things are going at the moment.
What's the job on offer, I'm currently unemployed and if I can transfer my skills to the available position, then I could well be interested?
