Thought about giving my lovely poseidon MG-ZTT 180 Sports SE a viking funeral and sponsoring the video - it would raise more money than selling it.....

Does this qualify as a bad thing..?

Quite right. Agreed

That is serious animal neglect. All sorts of life threatening complications could have arisen for a domestic dog giving birth. Reporting to the RSPCA and police would have been apropriate. Tbh I think you're lucky that they bought your car back at all rather than park it up and post you the keys!
The young lad used to slaughter chickens for a living he told me.

I get the feeling that some happyy souls here (not pointing the finger in any particular direction ) would find it very difficult to recommend themselves, let alone anyone else.


As it happens, I know that everyone thinks I am a pleasure to have around.

Always have and probably always will help others and do favours whenever I can, i'm kind of built that way I guess. sometimes it comes with appreciation and sometimes not but I don't dwell on it.

You are not supposed to mention these things anymore - no longer in fashion to mention good things that you do.

Our illustrious members above have issued a decree!

But, if you have any stories to tell about how you've been a complete b******, do continue, as we'd like to hear.

Hahaa. nothing about me is fashionable and to that end I feel quite at home not mentioning anything I don't apparently do!
On the subject of being a complete BsStard .... I'm afraid I am firmly and very unfashionably sitting on the fence through fear of incriminating myself.
