What is hacking you off today?

Another MOT failure ffs never passes first time

I use MOTs to tell me what's wrong and then I fix in 10 days for the re-test.

Advisories the previous year sometimes give a good indication of where it may fail

Or their ‘buster browns’!.

Don't know that one.

Don't know that one.

In the first 'Jaws' film, the mayor was talking to Brody in front of a advertising bill board of a girl surfing. A local had felt penned her screaming 'help, shark', & added a sharks fin on the poster.
The Mayor saw that & said, 'Brody, find out whose responsible & hang them up by their buster browns!.'

Oh blimey I thought it meant their brooch and earrings, what a mistake to make.

I wish someone would just sack Luis Rubiales and stop the ludicrous media circus that appears to be never ending.

Zoe Ball and Richie Anderson have got to be two of the most grating people in broadcasting.

Feel the same about Alison Hammond, Holly Willowbooby & Rylan Clarke - nauseating

Ah I like Alison - her interviews are great. I mean I don’t search her out but she can be hilarious. Holly however is a disgrace.

Pretty brutal typhoon here. First big one since 2018 (plenty of small ones). 150kmh winds and still at least 3 hours before it’s at its nearest (about 40km away). I’m reasonably sheltered but taking nothing for granted. Some low lying areas already under water, couldn’t be worse timing with a spring tide. Going to be an interesting night for me.

Fake Homeless beggar gangs. Seems to be hitting all the big Cities now. They turn up in the gang leaders smart cars, Mercedes etc. They have a rucksack, a costa coffee type cup for collections. They put a rug or sheet over their bodies. And have a cardboard sign saying, I'm hungry, God Bless You. Or I'm Homeless and hungry. Etc. Most are Romanian, Albanian or Pakistani. They target tourists and locals. The signs are a giveaway as they are the same for that gang in that City. They are not homeless, they are not hungry. With this fake begging, they are doing very well, thank you. One was observed by a secret camera above a shop, and got over 200 people donating into the cup, that was emptied every now and again with money going into the rucksack pockets. So in 6 hours, the average donation is £1, that's £200 a day, tax free, and almost definitely on housing and unemployment benefits. It also deprives the genuine homeless of money.

Didn’t end up as bad as the 2018 one. I’d rate it top 5 in the 12 years I’ve been here. We average 3 per year. Still not to be underestimated especially with non stop rain for 19 hours so far and counting.

The price of Nestle Coffee Mate. Less than a year ago it was on sale in kilogram drums for £4.50. Then the 'large' size was changed from 1 kilo to 800g and the price rose to £5 and then £5.50. Recently the 800g size has been discontinued and now the largest size available is 550g, and guess what - the price for that is £4.85 at Iceland, 35p more than a 1kilo drum was less than a year ago. Nice work if you can get it!
