_ethrty-Andy_ 2132 Report post Posted May 28, 2015 my house is cold, old railway house with no insulation, i dont even bother with heaters. and some muppet of a previous owner decided it would be a good idea to delete the fireplace and put a pox gas thing in that does nothing but look nice. so i dont bother. just layer up and get under a blanket. just me and my dog so no young kids to keep warm etc. 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

What they waste their time doing something that is actually more harmful than beneficial ? " Can you lift that weight? " " yea just " " Good, NOW DO IT AS MANY f**kING TIMES AS POSSIBLE IN 5 MINUTES!

gjm 3258 Report post Posted May 28, 2015 Just seen a picture from the UK posted on Facebook about the Anti-Austerity protest in Leeds. Thousands of people, many drinking beer. On a Wednesday morning. Did no-one see the irony in this? Indulging in luxuries while others are working? Do these people have jobs? Or are they just concerned because any austerity measures might cut into their 168 hours a week leisure time? 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

On a Wednesday morning. I thought you were ex-UK like myself Graham? You must realise that most people in Leeds drink beer for breakfast, it's not a place you want to be when you are sober! On the same note, that program on Prime last night - "Skint", idiots with no education, no ambition, no jobs, hundreds of kids, no money to live off... but able to smoke, watch SkyTV and drink cans of Special Brew. Makes my blood boil.. 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Apex 693 Report post Posted June 2, 2015 Sad. And why I would recommend a boring Mondeo over a 20 year old bling car to my friends with family's. http://www.nzherald.co.nz/nz/news/article.cfm?c_id=1&objectid=11458891&ref=NZH_FBpage As for crossing the yellow line, not sure what my thoughts are there, like anything we do when we drive, I think common sense goes a long way.. distractions when driving seem to be the number one cause of accidents IMHO, not speed, not alcohol. Also. I forgot there was a 4km over tolerance on the weekend and got stung at 114kph down a long wide downhill straight between Taupo and Rotorua. I know the cops have a job to do but I do think they should be allowed to show some discretion, I could tell the guy felt like a complete and utter chicken sh*t c**t when he was explaining it to me... poor guy. f**k that for a job, I couldn't sleep at night.

Flooding through out the building as the rain water had nowhere to go $$$$. Half my w/end up on roofs, chasing plumbers and cleaners who'd rather be at home with families and friends.

kulgan 1042 Report post Posted June 3, 2015 Spark telecomunications who when I ring them to say I'm only getting 0.27mbps tell me that they are delivering 7.5mbps to my modem. After more descusion they say that the exchange is too old and is being overloaded by the ammount of users. I tell them I live in the country and theres no more users now than there was before. And that if all my 5 neighbours who run through that exchange were all using our internet at the same time I should still get a better download speed than 0.27mbps. Here comes the good bit. The mother F*&^&*% tells me that I shouldn't use my internet during thier peak hours. So anytime before 3pm and after 11pm is ok.. WHAT THE F*&K. 3 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The mother F*&^&*% tells me that I shouldn't use my internet during thier peak hours. So anytime before 3pm and after 11pm is ok.. WHAT THE F*&K. I like the little places! I use a local place - Ubernet. I once had a problem with our internet, and it WAS a fault on my network. They offered to come out and change the settings for me, when they set up the voip phone I was ordering. I had another problem with dropped connections, and they phoned ME and told me I had an issue with my antenna, and someone would pop out if the time was OK and replace it - I hadn't gotten around to calling them yet! Then last weekend, we had a fault where the Voip phone worked, but the internet wouldn't. Sorted on the phone, with a guy who KNEW what he was doing, in about 10 minutes - turned out to be a cable fault at my end too! The cable I tested it with was faulty too, which confused us for a few minutes too. Sure I only get 10 mbps, but it's always the speed I pay for (their slowest option) or faster, and I don't use any Telecom/spark stuff - my house isn't connected to the phone netowrk at all It took Telecom so long to diagnose a fault when I tried to hook up our house, that I arranged an alternative. Then when our firends built down the road 18 MONTHS later, the same fault still existed and it took them 6 weeks to get a phone line I also live in the country, and 10mbps is a shitload faster than anyone else out here gets anyway Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
