    An old boy that drank in my local claimed to have been one of his guards when he got huckled.

    Did you have any stories about the incident ? I saw that they were selling abit of the plane maybe about 5/10 years ago that a farm hand had allegedly hidden ,it’s not for from the prehistoric burial cairn which is also worth a look if anyone is into that sort of thing. 

  2. Minder “the ray years“ Not a spin-off as such but felt like one but after terry left, it was named minder after terry and the programme was made for him after the sweeney finished , then when he left  my arsehole nephew took over ,and with a change of  cast of the lesser characters  of the filth threw the years Aswell ,the ray years minder should never have happened. And as for the Shane Ritchie spin off where do I start on that fs!

    Aye lad doing ok they had ailments that go back a couple of years so it was on the cards! I’d agree on them being the best breed! This was my first experience of a male boxer, had thought it would be a bull in a China shop type dog. Even more well behaved that the bitches. 
     

    Can’t see me being dugless in the long term! 

    Yeh after they get past the puppy/young stage they do settle down alot,hope it’s another boxer you get when the time is right.

    Sorry to hear that mate ,they look cracking dogs ,Iam possibly abit biased as I’ve had boxer dogs all my days  but I think boxer dogs are the best breed about (other breeds or available so I’ve heard 😉)and currently have a couple just now (don’t like putting them on hear incase some c**t recognise them or me but ) my previous two I lost within six months of each other and even though they were old still always comes as a shock,hope you and your family are doing good. 

  5. Just before Xmas was eating a pack and found probably about half the size of a oxo cube of compressed flavouring/powder in a bag ,had to eat it 😂,last month or two since they have gone up in price the flavouring  definitely seems less than it used to contain.

    At which point he'd be 78.

    Does prison time go towards your 35 years NI contributions for a state pension when you get out?

    It won’t as he won’t be signing on to get the government to pay for them ,he could have a business outside still trading or pay voluntarily contributions ,pointless but as he won’t get a pension until he is out but.

    Edit already answered lol

    That’s different than I understood…but “Tire Rack” in the U.S. offers a similar deal, selling tyres and shipping them to an approved dealer who installs at a set price…a price you can beat walking in.

    It may be the same idea ,as they won’t be making a mark up on the parts so may charge more to fit unless they are hoping to get more punters threw the door and just charge a standard labour rate ,had a quick swatch there on there site and without the discount codes  usually 10/15 % that they always have would be just under £90 at the cheapest local garage  to me to have front pads fitted on a Merc sprinter van.

    Only downside to buying the parts yourself is some garages won’t warrant the work the same way as if they provide the parts. The reality is the garage makes money on both the labor and parts, so I don’t provide parts unless it’s something unusual that couldn’t be ordered at the local parts house.

    Not sure if this is what  he was meaning but Euro car parts offer a service that you buy the parts from them and you can have them fitted at selected  local garages  which offer a price for fitting if bought from euro car parts,  meaning you get the parts at “cost price “ they may well charge a higher labour cost never used them so unsure 2bh .

    Having been in a workplace that was utterly toxic with racism, homophobia and sexism all present, you were hard placed to challenge all the comments or behaviours when those above you weren't interested either. Not in the Met right enough 😂

    Just had new brake pads fitted recently, I noticed they are squeaking still though a different squeak 🙂

    I presume this is normal for new brake pads and should disappear in a short time?

    Yeh it’s fine ,just the new pads bedding in

    Nah not really.  

    My worry with calling them is that may alert them to then come to my door?  I'm just gonna lay low until then and if they come to my door I'll blank it.   Cant see them turning up a busy Fri/Sat when the email sent to me seemed fairly relaxed or maybe thats being ignorant I don't know. 

    Chances are they won’t come over the weekend,easy for ever c**t on hear to say don’t worry but harder when it’s happening to you ,Best thing is not to go overboard with booze or anything over the weekend trying to blank it out as you will end up feeling even worse and worrying more  (hope that doesn’t come across as patronising btw) was more meaning phoning them and say your working away etc you know about it and deal with it when your home on Monday rather than saying your in the house waiting on the knock .
