Things that yank your chain

I don’t think that a lot of people even know what customer service is these days, to used to internet buying and fast food outlets etc. Also, when it comes to buying cars a lot of people don’t know their arse from their elbow. I’ve even seen a car manufacturer advertising a car purely on a particular app that it comes with.

Motorcycle snobs…gggrrrr.
Riding on the same route you tend to see the same bikes and give a friendly nod, last few days I’ve been riding MrsW"s 125 to get some miles on it as the motor is still very tight, anyhoo nodding to the usual riders I see and about 50% are now not bothering to acknowledge me when on the 125 but go back to normal nod or wave when I’m back on the bonneville-bikes a bike ffs…ggggrrrrr

I always make a point of acknowledging bike plod, just for shits and giggles. They never wave back, must be because I’m on a GS :rofl:

Gender politics. Fed up with this complete nonsense impacting our normal lives.

Entirely agree. I switched the BBC news on a couple of nights ago at 10:00pm. The lead item was that snivelling pathetic prick Philip Schofield feeling sorry for himself. The second item was the train crash in India, a real tragedy, hundreds dead and many more injured. I just couldn’t believe the priority they’d given to that twat.

I agree, the coverage of the PS story is ridiculous. I turned on the BBC news yesterday and news watch was on. The whole programme was about the story, with folk saying the coverage was disproportionate to the news value. Of course there were others supporting it lol
What it meant was the whole programme was given over to the story yet again. The BBC needs a good shake up.

Anybody else looking forward to Fishy Nutsack give his address to the nation later? He is going to tell us all about how wonderful his immigration policy is. I suspect there will be so many lies in it, that we will think that Boris wrote it for him.

What a beautiful image you weave!!!
:joy::joy::joy:

Job done! Bigger boats to house more immigrants. You weren’t expecting that now, were you?

About as impressive as listening to paint dry on the radio.

Bellends (adults) riding bicycles really fast on the pavement. Fairly close call for me this evening as I was pulling out of the petrol station onto the main road. Two adults flying down the pavement on their bikes straight across the road that leads to the petrol station and a few other businesses. Luckily I managed a very prompt stop - you do expect people to walk across as it’s a pavement but with a bit of caution. Wouldn’t have been so annoying if the other side of the road didn’t have a totally separate two way cycle path on it :person_facepalming:.

Pair of tossers.

Pedelecs? Morons.

No electricity involved this time - not sure there was a single Watt present between them.

What is really sad is that this kind of behaviour is common place. Reversing of my drive can be precarious with cyclists riding on the path. :upside_down_face:
