Bitching And Whining Thread

  1. You should be happy about this. They are forewarning you that they are a shite company and that their work will be overpriced, late and shoddy. Thus forewarned you'll never do any business with them and save yourself a lot of hassle and expense. It's a pity more shite companies don't behave in this fashion.

  4. Fucking ditherers at roundabouts. When theres good visibility and its clear that nothing is approaching it or on it and yet they still fucking stop. look for 10s and then pull off. wankers

    or when at a 4 junction roundabout and everyone cant decide who goes first. fuck it i just go. wankers

    get outta my fucking way. make a decision and go for it for fucks sake. stop dithering like a turd. you are driving a car not choosing what to have for fucking dinner.

    and yes i know you can see me or have seen me. I look into your mirrors from behind nobhead, so when i spot you moving over slightly to stop me filtering, dont complain when i check mate you by swapping filter sides before you can react. yes mr bmw that means you. ive been riding for over 30yrs i know the game.

    young corsa/peugout drivers, no i dont want to have a race. even stuck in 1st i could twat you and ive another 5 of these. the track is for racing, the road is for going places.

  8. My recent piss & moan...

    Been trying to register my 996 that I brought with me when I moved here from Sydney. Import was easy enough, registration is a bit of a pain in the arse though. Sent through the requested documents to DVLA to get myself a plate after doing the grey import MOT and getting an overpriced insurance as the cheap companies won't insure me unless I have a UK registration.

    Sent DVLA all the docs which got returned to me with a note saying that they couldn't accept them since the insurance document I sent over didn't include a disclaimer that "insurance was in compliance with UK law". Fair enough, resent the papers including one with that specific disclaimer displayed.
    10 days go by, thinking that I'd have my bike on the road soon-ish I stalked the mailbox like a kid stalking the Christmas stocking on the 24th of December and jumped of joy when I saw a brown envelope from DVLA. My joy swftly turned to rage and an acute case of syphilis when I realised that they had returned my documents again, asking for the original registration from where the bike was originally sold.

    Now, I purchased this bike used when I lived in Hong Kong back in 2005, so I would not have the original registration dicuments, nor would I be able to obtain them from the Transport authority in Hong Kong. Ducati in the UK couldn't help me as the bike was not originally sold here. Ducati in Italy do not provide these documents as a service any more apparently, and the registration documents I have from when I lived in Japan in 2006 were not sufficient. Called the DVLA for the fiftyeleventh time who then informed me that the latest rego from Australia would be good, but those got lost in the move over here. Have tried to obtain the rego from RTA in New South Wales, but they will only send it to the address registered on my Aussie drivers license, which is in Surry Hills in Sydney, a place where I no longer live, which doesn't really matter either, since I need the Aussie license to obtain the documents in the first place. Problem here is that the Aussie license has been switched to a UK one, so I no longer have the license information to submit the application to get the papers. Trying to get any kind of government body to reply to emails is like herding cats and because of the time difference it gives a very narrow window to call up only to be placed in a phone queue.

    By the time I am getting this fukken bike on the road it is going to be too cold.

    In addition, I have bought a Vespa from outside the EU recently that I am going to have to try and import and go through a whole new process of fucking pain in the arse. I would seriously rather circumcise myself with a rusty spoon.
     
  9. What a faff, might be easier to buy a used 996 frame and swap everything over during the winter, and shame on you for owning a Vespa, you should be ashamed of yourself lol
     
  10. I have already gone though the mandatory naked public flagellation to redeem the Vespa purchase.
     
  11. A piss and moan is good for the soul.

    Got a final diagnosis I didn't want but ... It's taken a big weight of my shoulders .
    So today had to except ok not the end of the world .. Very crap but sat and put everything into perspective and f it!
    Had to re evaluate stuff and achieved loads of stuff at home :) very determined......me and DIY is shocking but I try :)

    Today I have nothing to piss and moan about !!!!
    This is unusual.
    All I can think about is 1. I want to finish my bike 2. I want to now get out and ride whenever I can .
    3. If people want to piss and moan about me they can go shove it where the sun doesn't shine :) although sadly most of these people think the sun shines out of their arses :) !

    This may change later when I realise I've forgotten where I put the 400,s padlock key !
     
  12. Learning to drive an automatic for the first time ever, on the wrong side of the road, with crazy low speed limits, unfamiliar rules, with Military Police with automatic weapons who are bored and looking for something to do.

    Oh, and having to leave the building, half-asleep, in the middle of the night to find the urinals when you want a slash.

    Piss - check.
    Moan - check.

    Yep, this is the right thread :upyeah:
     
  13. is the sink no good :rolleyes:
     
  14. Sinks are fine, they're in the same building as the urinals :upyeah:
     
  15. 3/10. Unless you've been shot at
     
  16. Agreed. Plenty of time yet!
     
  17. Yep watersports. I did have a moan once, it was morning piss and not conducive to an erotic experience
     
  18. Well if its brown, dont drink it down
     
  19. I was a bit nonplussed at the time, the lady in question was head of design at a large English university and had just moved to this position from a major US university, I did think she had more class................
     
  20. sounds like a great day, better than the day I have just had, and autos, piece of piss, only two pedals "go" and "stop" not difficult!
