Oh my, that’s really shitty for you. I live in a city not overly far obsessed. I asked chat gpt for numbers. Because I wouldn’t begin to guess. This sounds legit something to take to local government & challenge. Absolutely bonkers.
Sounds a little bit like our Brexit problems but in theory they could legally obtain parts going via ROI rather than the English hoopla of Brexit restrictions? Loads of stuff here went bad for repairs of industrial equipment after Brexit.
Can the main dealer not offer tests there? That explains it doesn’t it? 12 for everyone!
The 2 month wait is wild. Is that new or always been like it? Lots of ours you pay in advance online, the MOT centre places. But I feel like there’s absolutely loads of them, everywhere here. I think the official price is like £55 here but you can easily find cheaper online in pay in advance ones.
If you go to the brand dealership for MOT, it’s more like how you think it is. They keep the car forever and do it at any time of the day so your 20 min inspection leaves your car there for 8 hours! Very annoying, and usually more expensive too.
Can you not leave now? Could be a space issue? But basically MOT specific centres usually you walk in and hand them the keys then you wait until it’s ready (pre booked appointment slot) and pay and go when done. Checks seem the same.
Oh, I mean that’s basically the same here now then.
Oh, as in you have to stay in it while they check? I wonder why the difference?
love how we killed the old, frail anti-nuke ayatollah just to have him replaced with his young, healthy son who wants nukes and who just had his father, mother, wife, and child murdered on the same day by his mortal enemy. surely this will bring peace to the region
😱 No way!
We have! 😅 Quite impressive really.
Totally agree. I have a good moan almost daily. It’s a great way to get it out so it doesn’t fester.
Oh that’s quite inappropriate isn’t it? Funnily enough, Sunderland doesn’t do it at all, never heard a peep from them!
They call you?! I thought the magazine and begging letter they used to send me was enough! I have not notified them that I’ve moved, so probably won’t get more
Meh. Where does it get those people?
It’s very relatable though, isn’t it? You book what you can afford but then it’s like the consolation prize on the day. I guess their audience is average joes rather than the more discerning end of the market.
Oh wow, that’s really impressive. Have seen them by the beach in Seaburn recently and on the edge of Washington. Where is this please? Seems a much bigger group than I’ve seen.
Was saying this morning to a friend in Dubai that this decade has been a bit of a horror.
They’ve done it in the wrong place 😆 It’s also been here too, sometimes you open the front door and the stench hits you! As a city girl, I’m most upset by it, lol
Well, had I known, I don’t think I’d have chosen this one. The screw holes all had to be drilled because they weren’t big enough. If it wasn’t so hard to put back in the box, I’d have sent it back at that point. Definitely a job for TaskRabbit etc!
I think it’ll be our whole of spring project with me & the fibro and dad & the Parkinson’s! He’s been in bed for 3 hours since we gave up, & I’ll probably be in agony all week.
Manufacturers who make a flat pack for self assembly, and the “self tapping screws” aren’t self tapping at all, you ought to be able to go & murder the designer and whoever had the sign off to market. 3 hours into a “4 hour build”, had to abandon for the day because less than 20% is complete!
If they’re still a good fit on your face, you shouldn’t even need the strap! But might be better to try to work around it just in case? Good luck!
It’s almost like it’s a marketing ploy! They don’t ever offer me anything I usually buy. Must work on some people though?
Happy International Women’s Day! I’m a lot less international than I used to be, but very much still a woman.
Whoever cast Claudia Winkleman on Crufts was a bloody genius. She so genuinely loves dogs, and is such a contrast to the other reporting. I suspect she’s made a fab bridge between those show enthusiasts and a broader audience. Flipping love Crufts!
Oops, I’m at a garden centre. Sorry, not sorry.
There’s no shame in frozen mixed veg, if it makes it accessible it’s perfect. And actually, probably more nutritious than a lot of home prepped supermarket veg due to its age when you buy it. It’s early days too, a couple of weeks and you’ll be good as new!
I pop a pan of eggs on and once hard boiled, I can eat them whenever! I’m veggie, so meats aren’t an option, and once they’re cooked I can either build a meal around or just have as a snack. Protein powder is good as well if you can’t face that or don’t want to do any cooking.
Yes, how long has it been since it was done? If you can increase proteins it might help speed things up.
