day workers who slow my journey home in the morning!

Clutch problems

Trying to operate an eaton twin splitter gearbox just after passing my C+E.

Range change failing

Crash gearbox

I drove an old bus with a double clutch gear box once (never again)

Good thread this.

1. People who do U-turns on mini roundabouts. I know its legal, but it winds me right up.

2. Poor parking on main roads. Hazard lights do not give you dispensation to park on double yellows and cause queues.

3. The "think bike"warning signs. Surely it should be "bike think" when the are lane filtering at top speed. They dont appear in your mirrors until last the last second.

4. Jonny Vaughn, Ross Noble, Bill Turnbull (poison dwarf of the BBC morning programme). They are copper bottomed c0ck and fist magnets of the highest order. I would love to spend an afternoon river dancing on there collective face's

5. My $450 quid road tax!! Unjustifiable when there are some old bangers out there pumping smog out there back end.

6. Xenon lights fitted to Chelsea tractors. At the perfect height to blind you when the are overtaking on the motorway.

7. Rolling news TV coverage. Squeezing every last drop of "drama" out of situations. I watch the news to be informed not entertained!!.

8. People who use the phrase "epic"!!!!!!!!!. really boils my pee pee that one.

9. Fickle support for the Armed Forces. It has become very fashionable for trendies to bandwagon jump and show support. Now with myself only leaving the Royal Navy last year i have to ask the question "where where you 5 years ago". The people who 10 years ago were lambasting our lass because i was serving in Iraq (and therefore a baby killer!) are now all walking around wearing "help for heroes"armbands. This only applies to the fickle ones. The vast majority of people are (and always have been) supportive, this is not aimed at them!!!. Just the hypocrites.

....and that's how toddlers can go blind when they fall over and get covered in dog 5h1t.

....anyway..one of my pet hates is when drivers don't know when and when not they can use a bus lane.

dog pooh.....in fact all dogs that arent working dogs....

why would people have a dog as a pet? I hate our Cat its not mine its our mauds i love nothing more than beating the out of it when it looks at me funny.....
if you want pets get a fish tank......

if youre taking your dog for a walk and pick up its pooh well done, but you look a knob carrying your little bag of crap around... and if your taking your dog for a walk and you dont pick its crap up your filth, you may as well just squat down yourself and do one.....

and people that walk their dogs on sporting fields may as well just drop HIV infected needles on it as well....

got that off my chest......


I dont understand the hatred of traffic wardens either ive never got a ticket i didnt deserve.....I park on ahuge car par £2 a day yet people still park just outside the car park on double yellers....!!!!

People who replace the letters "er" at the end of a word with the letter "oo" when speaking. For example Manchester being pronounced "manchest-oo" Tom Grainger being pronounced "Tom Graing-oo." It really grinds my gears! Oh,and i don't like liars who use their lies to cause trouble either.

That grinds my gears too.

People who spend all day moaning cos a rugby league fixture has been cancelled!!!!

11/ all this sun-led, government backed " Help for heroes"

They are not heroes. A hero is someone who puts his own life at risk, whilst helping others. Not someone who fires at or drops a bomb on someone he neither knows or has a grievance against.

I have to disagree with you. Those soldiers out in afghanistan are not there by own personal choice,they were sent there by the government. they will be there until the government decides to bring them home,and most will be extremely lucky if they arrive home without a limb or limbs missing,or even arrive home with breath in their body at all. They are there as heroes helping people whilst putting their own lives at risk...........your own definition of a hero. And they only fire guns when fired at,only drop bombs on known terrorist targets and are there to protect the afghan people against a terrorist organisation that would also wreak terror worldwide if left unchallenged. So every one of them is a hero.

Welcome to 3 days ago. I don't even own a dog.

Nothing personal against soldiers, but as I said, they are not heroes. A couple of points to clarify;
1/ a person becomes a soldier thru his own choice, knowing full well that he could be sent to a war-zone.
2/ who exactly are they helping? The Afghans, who were getting on with their lives until the Yanks decided to carpet bomb the place.
3/ Soldiers do shoot at innocent people, mainly thru boredom and nerves. Ask soldiers who have seved in Basra. They do drop bombs on villages. Last year a village was wiped out. Their crime?- Attending a wedding. British and Yank "intelligence" got it wrong.
4/ which terrorist organisation is this? Al- qaeda that does'nt exist (another American bogeyman), or The Taliban, who to my knowledge were a political party, well they were when the Russians invaded in 79.
