For all the none biking stuff. Say hello, chew the fat or flame the forum.

People who promise you something then let you down.

it's my wife's 50th so I want something special for her birthday. Told my mate my plans and said he'll sort it out for me, as he's got a contact in the jewellery business who could get me what I wanted for about 50% of the shop price.

I've heard nothing since, despite chasing.

FFS, if you can't help out, just say so. I won't mind. I will mind if you don't respond and I'm leaving things to the last minute.

Ironing????

Best done in front of the TV anyway. With a drink. And a pack of smokes.


I don't think I have anything you could iron....maybe a shirt or two?? (which never get worn).

Pricks driving and using their phones who seem to think you're the one in the wrong for having a go at them.

Tossers.

Middle lane motorway hoggers. What is wrong with these ****? Do they think it's a slight on their sexuality to drive in the inside lane????

This seems to be getting worse. I can usually make better progress in lane 1 on a motorway.

People who get on my case when I'm out & about, minding my own business, and simply enjoying a nice morning drive in the middle of the motorway. Why don't they just go around me. What's the hurry??

I feel your pain.

When our kids went to bed - they handed their phones in. They hated it, but they got sleep and so did we. Its the only solution that truly works - and we tried many.

It took about a 2 weeks of resistance and then it became the norm.

Not worth it.

You'll get pissed off.
And they still won't give a feck.

I don't condone them, but I don't mind them either....it's just a warning flag to 'expect the unexpected' from them.

Just caught one of the local dickheads pissing in the park where the kids play. He wasn't happy when I had a word so he'll probably brick a car or slash a tyre on my motorbike.

The police know who there are, what they get up and where they do it. They've had more than enough reports to get an ASBO. But they do nothing.

Don't get me started on parks. They seem to be slowly changing (or maybe I'm just more aware of it??) to the only places where druggies and other scumbags hang out.

They used to be the one place where you knew your kid would be safe, now they're the last place you want them to be.

There was an incident in Costa Mesa a while back where some sick mothereffer was planting razorblades on the kid's slide.

Guess who was stopped by the cops!!!

As it turned out....there was a little known entrance from the local trails a few MTB riders used to gain access from another trail system. The b@stard had been sneaking in that same way.

There's a guy I could easily maim without a qualm in the world.
