Handed in the problem statement for my english exam's essay. The subject was to 'write about something that interests you'. Are you kidding me? Alright, I make up some shit about computer games in teaching vs. books yadda yadda. When the whore handed it back to me she was like "I see you didn't pick something from the curriculum?"

Ehhh.. No? All we did all semester was shitty grammar and reading articles from the Economist and various articles regarding the Scottish referendum? Besides, the subject was to write about something that had an interest to me. The class has literally 0 (ZERO) interest to me. To which she replies that it will be "fun" to discuss my essay at the exam and whether I will be able to pass or not. Fucking Dolores Umbridge wanna-be bag of shit, I'll show you!

£900 today for 4 new tyres; 2 worn ones but other 2 because of a huge bulge on 1. Because of a pot hole! Aargh! On top of £770 for 'gum surgery' when we are stony broke after house move. Not happy.

What on earth do you drive that needs a £900 set of tyres on it?

 

[Bodhi]

It's just taken me 5 hours to get from Brentwood to Stafford, including an hour and a half trying to get round one fucking roundabout. Our road network is fucking bollocks and anyone who says we don't need to build more fucking roads should be taken outside and fucking shot.

Oh and I appears to have Sciatica, which made the above experience extra fucking special.

I know what you mean in the sciatica thing

Easy, I was ~£230 a tyre on my Z4.

A combination of 18" alloy, low profile and run flat. Perfect storm for a rip off price.

 

[Moriath]

225 a tyre isn't tht much. Can't imagine mine would be much different but they are run flats

 

[TdC]

why would you need a run-flat tyre? are you kidnapping prone A-list celebs? are UK roads really that shit?

 

[caLLous]

Depending on what you drive, £225 is a hell of a lot. I know it's easy to spend that much on tyres but I had @sayward pegged as an owner of a more conservative sort of car, for some reason.

More roads, less houses/people one or the other.

A lot of German cars use run flat tyres because a) they're arguably safer because they don't blow out or fail catastrophically at speed like a non run flat would and b) it negates the need to carry a spare tyre, thus allowing more storage capacity in the boot space.

Also, it's dangerous to change a flat tyre in the dark at the edge of the road, you can at least drive home in reasonable safety with a complete loss of tyre pressure on a run flat (within a reasonable distance).

 

[TdC]

erm, sure i don't doubt what you just said. I'm just a bit surprised.

I'm pretty sure if affects your insurance too if your car comes with run flats as standard and you fit non run flats, technically modifying the car I guess.

Depending on what leg, time to get an automatic. Or an Aygo with a tiny, light clutch.

 

[Moriath]

As they said it's easier to control a car with a run flat. I didn't have any choice with my bmw. And it saves space

Most 'non premium' car dealers give you a bottle of goop to squirt into the type rather than give you a spare these days. This goop is only good in certain situations and you have to pay extra for a spare. Even one of those mini spares.

So I prefer a run flat to a squirts can that means I'm gonna have to call the break down service anyway.

Also as said if you change from car spec insurance usually goes up. And changing to a non run flat would do that.

my sciatic leg is the accelerator and break. However it's not too bad when driving but is shit when walking. So I take it from God I am ment to drive

 

[Gwadien]

I think we need more use of trains and such too, the traffic between Leicester and Notts gets stupid, either way you go, but when the train costs £15 for that journey, wheres the incentive to not go in the car/coach which is a minimum of £4.

We need new roads, nor improving existing ones, they're currently making the road by Clifton wider, but I really don't see the huge difference its going to make, only 4 years of extra pain whilst ira getting built.

Same here, I think I've caused it by not clearing all the shit out my wallet then sitting on a badly adjusted BMW seat - I've found the M Sport seats to be fantastic with the way they adjust in 14 different ways, unfortunately it's taken me 6 months to figure out I'd got it wrong

Still, a colleague got some elephant strength anti-inflammatories when she was last in the US (over the counter), and she's given me some of them. Much better

Yes my m sport has so many adjustments on it. Just makes it a pain when it's gone into service or something and someone else has adjusted it. Takes a while to find that comfy spot again.

VW Touareg.

 

[DaGaffer]

Fucking delayed flights. Up at 4.30, Sat in Heathrow, two hours delayed (which was actually a FOUR FUCKING HOUR delay, but I managed to change flight) and I'm moving house today.

Its only a one hour flight ffs.

My old Alfa156 used to give me terrible sciatica. Never had a problem with BMWs.

Other people in the cinema.

- chair kickers
- constant throat clearing
- laughing at non funny bits of a film
- sweetie wrapper rustlers
- weak bladders
- people that squeeze past you prior to the film starting without a polite "excuse me", "ta mate" or "cheers"

 

[Edmond]

I have never understood why they are allowed to sell products in the cinema that make so much fucking noise, or letting people take their own stuff in

Its a 2 hour film ffs, cant these people go without eating crap for 2 hours. I think all sweets and crisps should be stopped from being taken in the actual screen.

Sell it by all means as I know that's where they make their money, but make it a rule they have to eat it before they go in

 

[Billargh]

Lol aye, just scoff down a tub of pringles in 5 minutes before the film.

 

[old.user4556]

Happened a couple of days ago.

Shoulda had run flats....

 

[TdC]

Sorry, but everything in the remark that it is dangerous to pull over your car (because there is a problem with it) based on the fact that someone might hit you just screams out to me that the majority of UK drivers are incompetent idiots who shouldn't be allowed anywhere near a car. No offence btw.

Usually it's the forge in lorry drivers that stray onto the hard shoulder.

But it's bound to be less safe changing a tyre next to a lane of love traffic going 70 mph than it is limping off the motorway to a place it can be repaired or replaced.
