Re: MMR Vaccination

Did you never have measles or mumps when you were a kid, or the separate vaccines? I never had MMR but either had the infections or separate jabs. I had measles, that was it. I just wondered why an adult would need the MMR vacc if they've had either the disease or separate vaccinations in their chi...

Re: Your fleet running reports

Love that Chris :D Wife came home on Fri last week complaining of an exhaust rattle on the 125i. She'd had to take evasive action on a country lane and run through a pothole at the road edge, and it started after that. I suspected tail trim had come loose and would need tacking. However, just been t...

Re: Letting people out

Worse than that is when some courteous driver stops to let someone out and the waiting driver isn't expecting it, so it takes a while for them to get going, and when they do, the courteous driver has already decided they're not going to go, so they both move at the same time, then they both brake a...

File under the same category of cuntery that has people attempt - note, ATTEMPT - to serve me drinks in A FUCKING JAR. Whilst not quite as bad, I bloody hate novelty pint pots - Peroni, San Miguel, Starorammen (sp) all have their own glasses. I ALWAYS ask for it in a "Normal Pint Glass".....

Re: New shiny - Galaxy S8

Samsung's bloatware is fvcking irritating. I noticed recently a crackling when streaming BT audio to the car - like listening to vinyl. Quick Google suggests its a Samsung issue with their EQ and also Voice Recorder. Can't get rid of the voice recorder as its bloatware. Can't even disable the tw4tti...

We're on exactly the same page - Richard Dawkins is a fucking cunt. Just as bad, if not worse, than the sky-fairy brigade. Hallelujah and a-fvcking-men.

You might be waiting a while! I tend to have periods of devouring anything I can lay my reading eyes on, but at the moment I'm firmly in an off period. I'm off to Cornwall for a week soon, so that might be when I make time to get back into the saddle. Or I may just end up getting p1ssed with my dad,...

Re: Book review thread

Just realised I did read a book last year, after consuming 1Q84. It was The Bone Clocks by David Mitchell. He's one of my favourite writers - I started with The 1000 Autmns of Jacob de Zoet, and then Cloud Atlas, before working my way through his back catalogue. Bone Clocks is classic Mitchell - mul...

Re: Book review thread

I haven't read anything since finishing the 1Q84 trilogy by Murakami well over a year ago. It seemed to take it out of me and I just haven't got back into reading at all. I started on Norwegian Wood (fnar) but despite finding it interesting I haven't got far.
