Since when is it acceptable for a delivery driver to be hashing up turning around and having to listen to the reverse beeping for over 5 minutes, at 7.40 on a Sunday morning?? 

 

When I had had enough and went to see why, I was told foff!! I then felt the need to find out who he worked for and got offered out!! 

 

Even a guy I know in the next street down came and asked what was going on 

Now I not religious but these deliveries are hardly essential at that time on the weekend.

Team know how! Know how to make it impossible to send a complaint. I'm registered to some American website and have warned loyalty points just to send them my complaint 🙄🤯

You should try getting scammed by UPS, that is mission impossible to complain, what I do now is go on their Facebook page periodically and slag them right off, it hasn't solved a thing but makes me feel like I am making a difference 😂

Well I've got a week off work next week , so it's the law of the Sod I've done my back in this morning picking up a hair brush off the side, the irony is I have no chuffing hair  😢

Every neighbours I've seen was woke up by him, peanut👌

Well guess what I'm also of work for 10 days and I've not got a car, it's in the repair shop as like a div I backed into a brick wall two weeks ago. The insurance have given me a curtesy car about as big as a match box so I can't really do any fishing as it's not big enough to carry anything. 😭

Your not wrong mate mine goes at the most trivial things, one of the worst times I was actually just brushing my teeth, I wasn't even bent over,  I was stood up straight and my back went and I couldn't even move.

I spent some time in this gentleman's company at one of the Go Fishing shows at the NEC, some years ago. He was a good laugh and not at all "special" despite being almost a household name at the time. 

I liked him.

This is something I ought to try.....selling stuff. I just keep accumulating anything related to fishing. This is further complicated by the fact that my son keeps his gear in with my stuff and has the same, hoarding, inclinations. 

With the amassed bivvies, brollies and shelters we own between us we could establish a small village and give every occupant his own rod and reel.

I need a bigger shed.

I think I'm an impulse buyer, like, oooo see it, buy it, store it, don't use /need it, sell it..... But my next purchase I'm looking for is a decent (like cygnet/saber) weigh tripod. 

[elmoputney]

Because I've been doing a lot of fishing under the rod tips lately, I've started feeling like my 12ft rods are too long and I need some 9ft ones and smaller reels too, never ending isn't it, I am hoping to resist the urge but will see how it goes 😂
