How Was Your Day?

[Webbo]

That's a shame Balts, how old was she?

Thanks Webbo. She was 85, so a good age. She had a stroke 18 months ago, but last night my Dad called to say she had gallstones and might only last a few weeks, it turned out to only be a few hours. So, we had prepared following the stroke, but the gallstones and quick shut down of the liver was a sad surprise.

My Grandma died this morning. Very sad.

 

Sorry to hear that. My condolences to you and your family.

[Beliall]

Sad news indeed.

Got some knock-off Denta Sticks from B&M - they work wonders for silencing a puppy in psycho mode

Time for my most random comment ever. USSR's national anthem is unreal.

One of the best ever. I love a good national anthem.

My flatmate and I used to hope for a Russian win in every COD4 game.

[Finnegan]

All systems down at work. Bored to tears.

Exam later today for the biggest bullshit module ever

Car broken into last night, nothing taken fortunately. It's just the little triangular window by the wingmirror that was smashed. Anyone have any idea how much that'll cost to get replaced? Only recently insured so don't want to make a claim if pos and I doubt it'd be over my excess anyway.

Sorry to hear it Baltimore, condolences to your family. May she rest in peace.

As do I. Pretty bizarre thing of mine actually.

 

Turkey's is also quality.

 

Sorry to hear that Baltimore. RIP.

I agree. Would've been inspiring to listen to as a citizen.

 

I know some people won't agree with me but I feel incredibly let down by our national anthem, especially when I listen to some of the others out there.

[Dan]

Ours is average.

 

Italy's a very popular one (deservedly so) but USSR/Russia is my favourite personally.

[MooseBreath]

Propa stressful week so far. I feel unhealthily wound up. Think it's time to book a holiday.

[Merging Cultures]

Thanks everyone. Really appreciate the support.

Shame about the lyrics.

Got offered a nice photograhic assignment for September today. Yeah it's a brag but everyone else on here does it!

Grand as I have just received my second pay slip bank account is looking a lot healthier now

I've only ever had my car broken into once & that was in Sheffield, just round the corner from the Springvale pub.......1996 it was & the bastards had my speakers, stereo & Leftfield tape that was in the stereo.

 

Aren't you in Sheffield?  They smashed the quarter window on my car too, of which I was oddly grateful.  I seem to remember it costing around £70.  I would have thought it would be around £100.  The glass is cheap.  It's their time that costs the money.

I'm looking for somewhere/one to do it for cheap, autoglass quoted me £215 earlier!!!!!! The window bit seems to go for like £40 on ebay. Such a pain in the arse, guess I'm supposed to (should) be grateful they didn't hotwire the ****er.

[Strokes]

Look on yell.com for a local trader, or in the local rag. Its just a bit of glass they can reuse the rubber seal. Dont pay over £100

[Strokes]

Failing that go to a car breakers and do it yourself, its not difficult.

It is something you can do yourself, but it's not something I would fancy tackling.

 

If you were in Leicester, I know a few mechanics who might be able to help.  Any 'reliable' mechanics/garages in your area you can ask?  If they can't, they might be able to point you in the right direction.

Day off today for Labour Day. Going to go Communist spotting in Sofia. Interesting how in Western European countries these May Day parades are always full of keffiyeh-wearing, flare-throwing student types but in former Eastern Bloc countries it's just old ladies with perms waving little red flags.
