Re: Today's "What Gets My Goat" - NO POLITICS! - fazersharp - 25-10-20 How the FOC can BBC get away with strictly come dancing and covid. Apparently half have formed bubbles with their dancing partners of which have moved into a hotel to become a "single person" The whole social bubble thing was to help the mental well-being of those living alone, IMO the BBC are circumventing the law, what kind of a public message is being given out.

Re: Today's "What Gets My Goat" - NO POLITICS! - Dudeofrude - 17-11-20 Little W*nkers on mopeds!! I was in the car today driving down one of our main roads, its sort of a 30mph duel carriageway (except one lane either side is a bus lane) and is separated by a central reservation, well anyway there were 2 kids on mopeds coming the opposite way who decided last minute to perform a U-turn by riding over the pedestrian crossing right in front of me! Then as I followed them down the road one of them actually got his phone out of his pocket and started to text while he was riding!! He was all over the road, frequently driftng in and out of the bus lane then when the upcoming traffic lights turned amber they both gunned it (with no hope of making them in time) and managed to run the light at a main junction a good 5 seconds after it had turn red ?? To top it all off they were both wearing trainers and tracksuit bottoms, some kind of puffer jacket type things and no gloves. God forbid they had been hit by a car ... they wouldn't have stood a chance and worse some poor innocent driver would have had to deal with the guilt of disabling or possibly killing a 16 year old through no fault of their own. Not only that their parents would have been the first one at the front of the lynch mob blaming car drivers for not looking out for bikers I know the CBT system has it benefits but I honestly think its time they scrapped it and forced these young kids to do some kind of lessons/test before they are let loose on the road. 2 hours in a carpark the 3 hours on the road just seems like madness when you think about it ?? Re: Today's "What Gets My Goat" - NO POLITICS! - snapper - 17-11-20 well feck me side ways Today for the first time in over 15 yrs I applied for a personal loan Not just of any bank but the one we have our mortgage with santan or should I call them satan der what a feck waste of time that was I spent over an hour on the phone going over more details then you could imagine they already have all the details and nothing has changed but still need to do it Then they say we may need to have our house valued WTF I want a 11k loan for a car !!!! then to top it all off At the end he says hopefully we can have all this sorted in two to three weeks ! I said what ! two to three weeks ? yep that long bloody car I want to buy will be rusty by then Re: Today's "What Gets My Goat" - NO POLITICS! - agricola - 17-11-20 (17-11-20, 05:04 PM)Dudeofrude link Wrote: Little W*nkers on mopeds!!

Likely to be without any sort of licence, tax, or insurance. Unlikely to take whatever form of test is in place. Ever. Part of the Lost Generation. No respect, for anyone, anything. But likely to breed.

Also, look at the credit card page for 0% deals, there are some which let you take almost the maximum credit limit and put it into your bank (eg if the limit is £5,000 you can put about £4,800 from that into your bank). You only need to pay off the minimum amount on the card every month (DO NOT spend on the card or fail to make the payments!) and then, when the 0% deal is due to end, just do a balance transfer to another 0% card deal :thumbup Re: Today's "What Gets My Goat" - NO POLITICS! - b1k3rdude - 18-11-20 Thread cleanup - removed a bunch of posts that have no text in them.

It's a dog doing what dogs do! Is it *really* causing you that much of a problem? If it is, clean the gate post off with bleach, but they'll keep doing it until you do, because they're smelling other dogs' scent on it.
