Woman, gets up and storms off and shouts to me ‘gerrra life’.
Me: Got one thanks.

Ho ho ho! That’s hilarious. Talk about Oscar Wilde! She must have almost wet herself on hearing that response! You really put her down with that one. So often in these situations you only think of these snappy responses hours later. You should do some improv standup! “got one thanks”! Brilliant,

nudge?

Then don’t do something incendiary like call Gazza an idiot.

The for their coup d’état they put up signs on the bay saying “Maximum Parking 2hrs”!

😀 Is there no ‘grass’ around either?

Choice of snacks in the vending machine. Probably

No pork scratchings, then?

??? Why not pork scratchings?

Assuming the **** is blanking out a swear-word, that question sounds a bit hostile; if a question can be hostile. And as such, I will be ignoring it

wasn’t this the elfin defence?

hastw is the red herring. offaly is the live one, both are voldemort

Last decade called, they want their video back.

did you warn them about the Tsunami, the WTC, 7/7? Tell to warn the cockle pickers. Tell Steve Irwin to be careful.

Tell them! warn them! You have had wonderful opportunity. I hope you didn’t squander it. You could have save so many lives!!

Well, I don’t know if it is a joke but this is quite funny, but i guess it depends on your point of view.

Thanks very much to everyone for their helpful information and constructive advice. CM, if your picture is of the actress and not the character, then you have a perverse mind. Well done.

I had a phone with the Sybian operating system, generally useless, but the vibrate function!! 😯

That video is ace. I can really relate to that! I used to pick on fat kids all the time until one of them kicked my arse.

Also, will you two girls stop bickering or sort it out like the men in the video. Cynic, just show him the bit and get it over and done with. I’d do it for you but I can’t be bothered searching.

What sort of egomaniac is going to put themselves up for this

I don’t know. What sorts are there?

Mice seem to be getting wise to traditional traps i recently got rid of a number of mice with one of those bird house type traps.

I served in the Army for 12 years, best years of my youth. Was gutted when they disbanded 5 years ago, but we’d been doing much less by then anyway. But i agree with the sentiments, if it hadn’t been for the old guard giving all that they gave we wouldn’t have the freedom that we have now.

Sorry comrade Woppit, youre’ not pulling me in here, though it might even be funnier that you realise that it did refer to you and still felt the need to comment!.

You!!

😆 😆

😆

Excellent!! After trawling through this interesting then bickering then tedious debate, I was beginning to wonder if I’d just wasted a bit of my life. Perseverance has paid off!! The fact that Mr Woppit seems to think that the he is exempt from the previous post is delicious! Made it all worthwhile after all!!!

Beautiful!

I have a Toyota Estima, which has 3 rows of seats. The middle row can turn to be rear facing. In fact I’m looking to sell it if you are interested.

Now tell wwaswas

Bailiffs use threat and intimidation far too often. Some of them are just scum. I had one last year threatening to come round for a non-existant debt! Without a court order, too.

Did you try talking to them? They may have just gone away.

Well, if we’re going to get pedantic about it, potato is a tuber, not a vegetable

I agree second place goes to the spud

Besides, Romanesco cauliflower beats everything

Stop! A squash is a fruit! and I’m not confusing it with squash, like the drink mix stuff

I think I was looking for a response that was in proportion to the level of anxiety exhibited and the question as expressed by the OP.

Well, when you are sure, let me know

my response of ‘talk to the people sending them’ seemed to cover it?

Why so aggressive? I thought he had contacted them.

I have already spoken to one company in the past. The letters stopped for a while, but back to normal now.

But if it’s argument you are looking for then you’ll have to wait for someone else to pick it up. I’m giving advice based experience. I don’t really mind if it is followed or not. If it is as it seems, then it should be expensive, not for the OP anyway.

Nevertheless, your advice of ‘talk to them’ may well work, this time.

Good luck with giving up the cigarettes.

They are demanding money with menaces

oh for FFS the OP opened a letter addressed to someone else. No one has ‘menaced’ him and demanded money! [/quote]

I meant in strictly legal terms. My understanding is that the OP feels worried that someone might turn up and take his stuff away if the debt is not cleared. Is this untrue? or do you have a better understanding of the law, in which case maybe you should give the OP some more advice.

I have colleagues who have worked in Lesotho and speak of instances where, once the parents die, people then raid the homes of the kids leaving them with nothing.

Out of interest, which company was this?

Go see a lawyer. They are demanding money with menaces. Get the lawyer to threaten to sue them for this. They will back off. Then get the lawyer to sue them for his fee and maybe your inconvenience.

Not just speculation. I have a solicitor friend who did this.

Who rattled your cage? Where did I get narky? Just having a laugh. Now back to school young man.[/quote]

1) You rattled my cage
2) YOu got narky in your two posts above and in fact in the one where you ask who rattled my cage.
3)Oh having a laugh! Yes, now i see the smileys and the Teehee cat, it’s clear. hahaha Very good! hilarious. The one about not being able to afford a decent hotel is best. I’m going to tell it at school today! Thanks! Have you considered sending that one in to Michael Macintyre? I bet he could use it in his routine.

‘is this some game or banter which i cannot understand? Why is Surf-Mat being such a nob-end? He goes on about how great hotels are then gets all narky when someone else has stayed in a hotel.
