    F@&king insects. :mad:
    I was in the garden yesterday to start a big decking project and have been bitten to death. Big swollen, itchy bites on my legs that are driving me mad. :mad:
    The worst one is on the back of my leg which looks like the little b@#tards have been having a good ol munch. Why is it you don’t feel them while they’re tucking in? Sneaky buggers!
    No more wearing shorts while working for me. o_O

    Put a little laquer thinner on the bites, once the burning sensation stops they quit itching.

    Or just use Lanacane, made for insect bites and not pain inducing at all? :p

    As an old phart engineer I got called out to a new construction job site by another old fart foreman pipe fitter in my company. He says yah know boss, I really don't feel comfortable hanging all this heavy 12" pipe off of that steel roof structure over a boiler room. I agree it looks pretty wimpy.

    Long and short, the steel roof structure was designed using the latest and greatest fulley embraced software by the newest enlighten culture of new designers/engineers using Autodesk revet 3D modeling software supporting revet virtual reality pipe, the problem lies in the fact that the digital 3D pipe weighs nothing. And the roof strucure was therefore only designed for 20 lbs/sqft dead load and 20 lbs/sqft live load throughout the entire building. This should be interesting as we have a boatload of 10 and 12" pipe.

    Well, that would be generalisation of 4,436,224,000 of the world's population of 7.6 billion. See if you can narrow it further down and find something else in common amongst the perpetrators ;)

    Maybe it’s just the ones in Rotherham that like Johnny Mathis LPs?

    That should narrow it down a bit.

    Nobody wants equal rights, equal treatment under the law, etc. that's just for native male taxpayers who try to comply with the rules of the country. The rest can do as they please. That could be why they left there country of origin to seek riches without the risk of losing a body part..

    F’ing indicators on cars!!!!!!
    Have you noticed? A bit like a dodo’s Wings, evolution, lack of use makes them smaller and smaller. Sometimes you can’t even see them when the car is braking cos the brake lights are brighter

    Same goes for the front ones on some cars. They’ve moved them inboard of the headlights and the DRLs are so bright that the indicators can’t be seen unless you’re close, if they ever get used that is. :rolleyes:

    Oh so sorry mate. I hope he has taken responsibility for the coming together. At least you are not badly hurt which is the main thing. The bike can be repaired or replaced, you cannot.

    Hang on, if the police have cleared you of any wrong doing then surely the Audi driver is at fault and you can get your bike sorted through his insurance :rolleyes:

    Pour yourself a double measure... pause for a moment of reflection, and then just fill the glass.

    That would be undue care and attention and the law hasn't done him for that or anything else so who else could be to blame?
