Don't be silly, not much call for reversing in my rally driving :rolleyes:

Had a good look at the car in the cold light of day..and yes Ouch pretty much sums it up rindy :(

Re: what wound you up today?
 

When I was seventeen I was driving my Dad's car on Jersey. The lanes there are really narrow, with high stone walls. I met a coach full of pensioners, and had to reverse about half a mile up the winding lane to find a space to let it pass. Eventually I found a grand drive way with stone gate posts with eagles on the top. I reversed into one, hearing the back of the car give an almighty concertina crunch. I sat there as the coach passed...with all the pensioners laughing and pointing.:o

I can't remember the excuse I came up with so as not to get told off by my Dad, but it must have been good, because I didn't.:D

You were lucky there!!!

I am just so annoyed with myself.. but the height of the wall was below my side window and with it being midnight and pitch black (they really should get some street lights round there), I completely missed it as I was looking over my shoulder making sure I didn't reverse into their gates!!!

Hope I haven't damaged their wall :eek:

Re: what wound you up today?
 

gosh im glad your all ok h/r, yes it is bad driving down there at night.

Re: what wound you up today?
 

thanks Mez, as I said it wasn't a major crash or anything as I was reversing very slowly but that made the crunch noise all the more apparent :(

Re: what wound you up today?
 

What a bummer HR !! Was only thinking last night what a tidy car you had :(
Before anyone asks .. I can vouch she never touched 'a drop' last night.

Hope you get it sorted out soon .. just a load of hassle, isn't it ?

Re: what wound you up today?

And thanks for the vouch... not sure when I will get it sorted, but suppose it will have to be soon:(

do you know what really annoys me about shopping,why is it when your stood looking for your beans does someone come and stands right in the way,why is it when you walk around the supermarket,there is loads of unnatended shopping trolleys in your way,so you end up having to move them yourself,why is it when youve finally (hours later) finished your shopping,you have to que up at till half mile long,when there are 30+ tills not in operation,if your the ass that stands in front of someone who is looking for something your an ass,if your that person who leaves there trolley in the middle of the lane take it with you and your an ass too,and as for the que ,the stores an ass for not employing more people, shopping time would be alot less if peeps actually thought about what there doing,oh and i went shopping today just to let you know,thats my rant for today,and i feel alot better

What wound me up today was the woman who wouldn't listen when I said that the council had not paid the drummers to come to Acc Town Centre. She kept going on about the waste of her council tax to pay for it. I kept explaining as patiently as possible that it was all funded by the lottery but she clearly had a beef with the council and wasn't going to accept my word for it.

Chav scum.

We were on the train back from Hebden Bridge today, and it was full of Yorkshire folk going through to Blackpool. An elderly lady asked two ignoramuses if she could sit in one of the two spare seats they had their bags on, and they said no. They would have had the woman stand up all the way to Blackpool, whilst they sat there sprawled out, with their iPods and crappy mags.

The woman got a seat, and the two ill mannered morons got a verbal mauling.:D

Re: what wound you up today?
 

I really don't get why morons act like that and not give up their seat....

Must admit I did hold my breath when my eldest son said he was told off by a lady for making a clicking noise with his tongue on the train all the way back from manchester.....

I asked him what his response was...

"I said sorry and that I was doing it without thinking about it, then we had a nice chat!!"

when I said phew...he was rather cross that I thought he would do anything other than apologise!!! :o

Re: what wound you up today?
 

Awwww what a nice lad.... shame there not all like him.
