RANT MODE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

went out today to realise i'd forgotten my coat. ok nevermind ithought... pulled into shell for some diesel and keri notices we're an indicator lense missing... BUT the screws were still there.

"what the [!Expletive Deleted!]?" im stood there thinking. so off we go back home to get the coat and also check if the predicted was true - it was/is. some filthy little scrutter has smashed our lense off the back in the 30-45 minutes that it was actually parked on the road yesterday IN BROAD DAYLIGHT!

and then my mother wonders why we dont park on the road?! my dads 110 had awing mirror stolen within 24 hours of him owning it... P take? YEAH!

ok so off we go to matty's where he found us a lense, and then continued on to worksop as intended. despite being cut up by and nearly destroying a small number of nippy sports cars that feel its their right to nail it out from behind you and then cut you up trying to skip cars on those ridiculous occasions where a lane splits and then joins again, we eventually got there.

just because your car is shiny red, has a sparkly badge and says "V6" on the back ALONG WITH your expensive "V6 blah" personalised number plate DOES NOT mean that i give a flying toss.....

the guy infront of me wouldnt let her in, to which i celebrated with a few choice words, so the only option she was left with was trying to push her way through the side of our 110..... she tried it. foot down trying to squeeze in NOT TODAY! quite promptly booted it and left her on the wrong side of the road swearing..... i let her in eventually. made sure that everyone within a mile knew she was a complete [!Expletive Deleted!] moron though!

whatever... got to currys, finally sorted my laptop out, set off home. checked out a few little greenlanes on the way back and looked for a few geocaches with the dogs... found one of them (in the dark...) the other seemed to be missing. so that was fun, if you like that kind of thing... set off home again headingback to the main roads via some windy country things.

transit van, foot on the floor, blind corner. need i say more? YES because he probably doesnt have a wing mirror anymore... christ knows what speed he was doing (we were doing about 25ish as we were approaching a bloody steep hill) but it was high enough that he couldnt take the corner without driving in the middle of the bloody road...

first thought was "that aint gonna fit..." and as i had absolutely no chance of stopping etc, swerving up the kerb it was. "that still aint gonna fit....." CRACK there goes his wing mirror, and now ours is cracked. few inches more and he'd have parked in the side of our bumper instead. needless to say my road rage kicked right in. slammed the anchors on and nailed after him... first time i've seen/heard/known of a 110 spin wheels in reverse.

he wasnt slowing down for anyone though.. by the time i'd got it turned around he'd gone down one of two roads off a fork... fortunately i chose the wrong one and couldnt find him otherwise i'd be short of a crowbar, which would have been nicely rooted into the side of his van.

some explicit phrases later and we set off again. pretty uneventful on the rest of the way back though, except for our exhause coming unclamped from the downpipe again, which couldnt have happened at a more perfect time - nailing past a "well sorted" chav packed escort on the byway just up the road from our house.

put my foot down to pass them and that must have pushed it off. sounded (still does, not fixed it yet!) like a tank.. its great. their faces? a picture... more like 8 pictures actually... the car was virtually dragging its arse up the road with the weight of the "crew" in the back. hilarious...

so other than that amusing 15 seconds... bloody great!!! off to matty's again tomorrow to see if he can hunt out a mirror for us!

does anyone else get [!Expletive Deleted!] off this much on a regular basis!? or should i see someone? :?

rant off.............

Dave:

dreadnought110:
