As above, near tantrum by management.
"No you can't go out the front and stare at the A8 just because the sun is shining. You can go out back and do some weeding". I hate gardening. Bending over pulling weeds, walking up and down with the lawn mower and doing same with the jet wash on the flags. I was made for better things. OH and some barsteward has carparked the car at Sainsbury's. Most of the damage has been removed with T-Cut but a couple of gouges need more work. Why can't folk be more careful, or at least be honest?

Thanks Mark,
SWMBO has put her foot down with a vengeance. I cannot spend anymore money on anything related to the car ![]() Thank God that I took precautions many years ago, now the special reserve fund comes into play, but that means no obvious cameras. I'll sneaky a shot with my phone and use it as a walpaper ![]() We had a carpark incident within two weeks of buying the car, luckily the body shop owed me a favour so resprayed the rear wing for free. I love this bartering. Since then somebody did the rear bumper and now the front nearside door. The proper repairs will have to wait until more money becomes available. ![]() ![]()

Can you somehow install a gate at the back of the house so you can park the car on the lawn while doing the gardening so you can have live image of your baby while executing SWMBOs gardening orders
![]() I have car park scratches, it ******* drives me crazy. I'm probably one of the worst guys out there when it comes to picking the right car park bay, ideally parents only (I do have a child and car seat at the back so everyone can f off), or a end bay or far away from other cars where people don't park. On some occasions it takes me over 5min to find the perfect spot. Last time when my daughter opened the door without MY permission (she always asks or waits for me to open the door) she smashed the door against the metal post with back door...and that is because my missus said yes before I could make a quick judgment on the surroundings and decide if its safe. Wind blew the door and the noise was so horrific I got wet and red in seconds and they end up going to the shop on their own cos in this state I needed only a tiny excuse to explode in the shop. That's me and I can't do anything about it ![]()
