WAMT....what annoyed me today!

Are there such things as plug ins for PowerPoint?

They were all lied to so no one else had to take responsibility either that or the tester forgot the first to letters after seeing you ;)
 
Unfortunately, you're all in the matrix so nothing is real. It's all in your head.

I wondered why I was called copper top!!
 
The idiot on EBay that thought I was so thick I wouldn't spot that they'd sent me a dodgy copy of a DVD not the real thing
 
WAMT. De-icer spray just dribbling. Get another can of de-icer. It seems to do nothing to defrost the ice at all. Driver's door decides it isn't going to shut properly so interior light is on all the time. De-icer still doing nothing after arguing with the door. Drive with completely opaque rear window as it's plastic and isn't heated. Interior is also a bit damp as hood isn't the most well designed. Decide I will never have another soft top again... until the sun shines obviously. Start thinking some awful crappy little newish bland super mini might be a better idea for a second car than some cantankerous old german.

Stop moaning, :p I've been there done all that,
The winter agro is well worth the top down in the summer...
Come to that I used to drive top down in the winter a lot too,
wrap up warm and snuggle down in the seat, don't knock it until you try it :thumbs:

Plastic rear screens crack if you put the roof down when it's too cold. It's not worth it. I'd rather have a sun roof!

Mine never did, although it was a manual one the I folded, failing that I'd use a Tonneau cover and just unzip the drives side if I was alone and not bother with the soft top at all :thumbs:

You're kidding right? that's for wussies :p in those days men were men & heaters were optional extra's (y)

Heaters??
Is that like a fan that blows cold air about (I used to own an old mini)

See, you are better off without one :thumbs:

:D

Decent cars have either heated glass rear screens or zips around the plastic so you don't fold and crack it when cold. ;)

Mk2 1/2 with glass rear screen as above. Fastest folding roof (and reerecting!) I've ever come across.

Don't often use mine but they're nice when needed!

Used to love the feeling of being under the 1/2 tonneau with the heater on full blast in my Frogeye many years ago!

Sort of, although the S IIa Landy's "heater" didn't so much blow it as move it gently, generally picking up cold, damp air from the footwells, warming it to cool, damp air before exhaling it on the inside of the freezing windscreen, where it would crystalize...
The Frogeye's heater wasn't much better, although in that I could close the passenger footwell vent so concentrate the almost warm air under the tonneau on the driver's side.
 
We have 2 large schools and 1 nursery, within a mile of here,

Most of the mummsies around here drive people carriers rather than 4x4's I guess its the fact that they can cram in their hundreds of kids.
I don't normally drive at chucking out times, but needs must occasionally.

I couldn't believe it, it was like brands hatch! diving out of side turnings, going for gaps that didn't exist, pulling out of turnings, then around parked cars into the face of oncoming traffic! WTF!
And of course going far faster than the 20/30mph signs, and all this with a car full of kids! FFS!
 
Not to mention them parking on the yellow zigzags and moaning at the copper who tells them to move on.

WAMT and will continue to do so for 62 weeks (according to the signs...) is roadworks on the way to the g*lf course I play at. Quicker for me to take a 3 mile detour (almost doubling the distance) than to sit in the queue. At least I don't do the journeys at peak times! Working on a way to strap a set of clubs and a trolley to the bikes!

If I could bring myself to feel it, I would pity the grockles come Summer - it's on the main road down to Dawlish, to where the population of Birmingham seem to migrate in July/August.

Oh they do all that, to try and stop the double yellow parking they also put in a few off set bollards guess what? they take no notice and block the road :rolleyes:
FFS, its only a small catchment area and no one would live outside walking distance, I used to do it all the time.
 
Plod now turn up from time to time and ticket them. One woman with a disabled badge leaped out and chased the copper down. Not convinced she still has the badge...
2 women at the bottom of the road used to take a car each with a child each to and from the same school. Always in each others houses so not as if they weren't on talking terms! School's about 1/2 a mile away.
 
Rang the doctors appointment line at 8 when it opened and I asked for one my doctors 10 telephone consultations for that day..... none left, all gone!

How in the hell can all the appointments be gone when they are not supposed to be given out until the appointment line opens on the morning concerned :mad:
 
Don't suffer from wind.





































Enjoy it!
 
argghhh.. laptop screen failing, serve me right for getting a touchscreen. The IT budget is getting a hammering this month. Not *quite* cheaper just to replace the laptop.
 
Landed 23 minutes ago and we are still waiting to a bus to the terminal. UK disorganisation once again.
 
Try Iraklion just after a couple of non-EU (Russian...) flights have arrived. Makes even Bristol look positively frisky!
 
That would be the airbrush needle bending, not sure why, but it did - on it's second use and I was just getting the hang of this dual action malarkey. Now I have to wait till I get a new needle to carry on my painting!
