observer Posted August 2, 2011 Report Share Posted August 2, 2011 Now why would I ever consider "chatting" with you - in the real world? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dizzy Posted August 2, 2011 Report Share Posted August 2, 2011 Give it a rest you two you are getting as daft as Marks, O'Neil and Barr with your constant tittle tattle everywhere I seem to look.

Mary Posted August 3, 2011 Report Share Posted August 3, 2011 Geoff - as I live in an area that gets many Tourists for 6 months of the year, I can tell you that rudeness is universal no matter what the age of the driver! I used to be afraid of the little old people that could hardly see over the steering wheel, well no more; its the out of Staters that have me nervous. As far as rude language - I ignore it and figure Karma will get them and it usually does. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gary Posted August 17, 2011 Report Share Posted August 17, 2011 Sorry but some of the above posts have temporarily been removed for now (including my own). That's not to say they have gone for good so no whinging please. Geoff.. I have sent you a message.. please read and reply, many thanks Dizzy (annoying moderator) I realise that this makes the topic rather hard to follow at the moment as you all can only see some of the replies and not others... Is there going to be a conclusion to this? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gary Posted August 17, 2011 Report Share Posted August 17, 2011 Is there going to be a conclusion to this? Now I am really confused as I responded and it all appeared! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dizzy Posted August 17, 2011 Report Share Posted August 17, 2011 Have you been drinking Gary All the posts went back on ages ago once Geoff had replied to me saying he witnessed and photo'd the event himself.... apart from the one post which was my own post explaining why all the others had gone temporarily and which is still PINK (meaning only you and I (or other mods) could/can see it now). When I say no one else can see it now... they couldn't until YOU just quoted it so you've probably just confused everyone. I left that there incase I had to wipe out the others again so I didn't have to type my original reply explaining why they had gone again and I could just make mine visible and the others invisible. You are a muppet sometimes and I hope I have just managed to really confuse you... must be all that loud music Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geoffrey Settle Posted August 18, 2011 Author Report Share Posted August 18, 2011 I think this post is well past it's sell by date..the time for me to have taken action is long since gone ... it's dead just like the Norwegian Blue....

Dizzy Posted August 18, 2011 Report Share Posted August 18, 2011 I thought you had taken though action Geoff... surely you just didn't give up. Did you ring the police again with your list of possible regestrations ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are a muppet sometimes and I hope I have just managed to really confuse you... must be all that loud music There was actually a section in small print under this topic saying 1 unapproved post which probably only I could see as a moderator. I clicked on it wondering what it was and it showed your post in red but nothing else - I responded to it and suddenly the whole threaed re-appeared. So no I hadn't been drinking and no I am not a muppet. The actions you took obviously created a little tag for all mod/admin to see which hadn't been noticed by you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dizzy Posted August 18, 2011 Report Share Posted August 18, 2011 Yes Gary the little tag has been there from the day I did it and prior to that the tag said there were lots of little unaproved posts for the ones I took off temporarily... and yes the whole idea of them is so that only Admin and other mods can see them Maybe you do need a drink The actions you took obviously created a little tag for all mod/admin to see which hadn't been noticed by you Ok I'm trying to be polite so I will just say.... I 'clearly' DID notice it was there as I did it and I know how it works Anyway if you don't mind I'm busy ......... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill Posted August 18, 2011 Report Share Posted August 18, 2011 I got bit of verbal abuse last week after a couple of youngish Asian guys ran into the back of me at a road junction. It was the classic I move forward then have to stop but they didn’t. Being in the middle of the road, I moved across the junction to park while the pair of cheeky buggers did a quick left turn and booted it! Their old Golf Gti wasn’t quite as quick as they thought and I caught up with them about two miles down the road. They jumped out arms waiving and shouting all sorts of abuse until I said “ Are you hearing all this?” At which point they realised I was talking hands free and must have assumed I was talking to the police, because they suddenly became all very very apologetic.

Bill Posted August 18, 2011 Report Share Posted August 18, 2011 Nah not that much damage, just a few small marks and certainly not enough to make me want to bother putting a claim in. Had a puncture the other week, £217 was the very best price I could find. Nothings cheap these days. Bill Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dizzy Posted August 18, 2011 Report Share Posted August 18, 2011 Maybe you need to change your car bill ... and £217 for a puncture would certainly make me be verbally abusive Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Evil Sid Posted August 18, 2011 Report Share Posted August 18, 2011 £217 for a puncture. :shock: For another £58 I could get four brand new tyres for my motor and that includes and balancing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Had a puncture the other week, £217 was the very best price I could find. Nothings cheap these days. Bill I just put two tyres on my car Bill...... Mercedes price for two Dunlop SP01's - £291.00 each.... Ebay price for two tyres exactly the same and still had the pimples on them (they had done 500 miles at the most) just over £100 for both including fitting.... Just have to shop around!!

Dizzy Posted August 18, 2011 Report Share Posted August 18, 2011 Yeuch you buy spotty pimpled tyres Baz. I hope you sprayed them with antiseptic and wore gloves before handling them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill Posted August 19, 2011 Report Share Posted August 19, 2011 I think I’ve said this in the past but when I bought the car, the sales bloke did say it was a real “bird magnet” but to date, the only bird it’s ever attracted was a near miss with a wood pigeon on the M62. As for the tyre cost, well I did search around that was the best on line price I could find. Black Circles seem to come out cheapest every time and their price includes the supply and fitting at one of several garages in the area.

Dizzy Posted August 19, 2011 Report Share Posted August 19, 2011 Surely that's not your car Bill... you are old and grey and that looks like it's more for boy racers and posers with spray tans and muscles. If it is yours did you buy dunlop tyres and aren't all tyres black circles ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
algy Posted August 19, 2011 Report Share Posted August 19, 2011 Bit of a 'Silver Fox' Bill, what with the 'Italian Job' motor and the avatar with the designer cardy' slung over the shoulder - Lock up yer' daughters lad's Bills in town.

Bill Posted August 19, 2011 Report Share Posted August 19, 2011 Your daughters are quite safe, just watch out for their grannies! And just don’t look too closely at the designer cardigan because that’s my old jersey with holes in the sleeves. As for the motor, that’s not actually mine but it’s virtually the same except mine’s silver and on Pirellis. We call it the company van because it gets used mostly for moving stuff around. Weekends are more fun because I get to drive the car that comes complete with underpants liners. Bill Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
