Entering customers details who entered a prize draw at work tonight (yawn yawn)
Was spitting feathers....cm requested the company electronic newsletter to be sent to her work email address....
xxxx@jobcentreplus.gsi.gov
Makes me sick that she has the cheek to browse through our latest offers when she's at work when I know how I was made to feel at the bloody jobcentre when I was unemployed 2 years ago
Bloody Feckin' Tight a*sed councils who lay crap loose gravel road surfaces to save theirselves bloody peanuts!!
Apologies for ranting but........
Thanks to them, me and my mate came a cropper today on his 1200 bandit whilst rounding a bend. The gravel that had banked up and was impossible to see till we were on it just took the wheels out from under us - he got thrown clear, I went into the ditch with the bike on top of me. Luckily the ditch was full of water and boggy mud, so I got a soft landing, but the weight of the bike pushed me further and further down! A couple of car drivers with tow ropes stopped , so they soon had the bike off me and hauled us out. Apart from a pebble dashed derrierre, some bruises, and a session of bog snorkeling I'm ok...though the bikes pride is severely dented.
Oh no PB !!! Thats really bad to hear , goodness me hunnie .....please get them told asap when they open.................Big hugs and hope your soreness doesnt last too long , bless you, dread to think PB..

Oh heck thats bad news, dont know why they have to lay it that thick, I had a near miss a few weeks ago on a roundabout, it was that thick it was a joke.
luck was on my side the back wheel just slid but managed to keep it upright, Glad you both ok and didnt get hurt.
Sweeney -it probably wasn't that thick to begin with, but you know what happens when cars go over that stuff - ridges of it forms - which is what we hit!
Gen hunny - thanks for the hugs - I only hope they don't want photographic evidence of my 'pebbledashing'!!!
Tell you what Minnie, next time a mate comes knocking unexpectedly at my door, asking if I'm going out to play...... I'll just make sure I'm doubly padded up on the old derrierre ..... cos picking gravel out bloody hurts
But is this a good enough **ahem** friend to pick it out for you sweetie??
Take it that pair of troosers are fit only for the bin?
Are you going to keep the offending pieces of gravel and integrate them into a collage??
Min - yer blushes are spared (mine too) cos my landing pad has already been dealt with!!!
As for the troosers - too right!
And the gravel - well - I'd like to put it in a tray, take it to the offending council - and encourage whichever official that ok'd the road surfacing to be done this way, to sit on and experience it.......
Glad you're still alive and kicking Julz. Hope the pilot is ok too.
Has anyone noticed the state of some of our motorways lately? What looks like debris from previous incidents, still strewn on the ground next to the barriers. Road kill, gravel, bits of tyres, it's disgraceful and dangerous.
Grit at a roundabout is a common sight and another place that needs cleaning up.
At the risk of sounding like a scratched record WHERE DOES THE ROAD FUND MONEY GO TO?
