So you seem to be saying we should treat your proclamations with the same degree of respect as those of any unknown stranger in a pub? If you want to quote a subset then I suppose its true even if its somewhat limited. |

He dares not reveal his identity on a newsgroup, do you expect him to do it in public? He threw down the gauntlet (albeit in the wrong place, although nuernberg would suit me fine, I'd hit around 130 mph on a daily basis round there) to a race. He would have to show himself. But ... I know he's not got the balls to do it. He's prolly already trying to find some way of pretending he didn't challenge me to a race, but he did, and it's on record so denise your call whenever -- geoff |

We might even be able to try out some of the technology TMH was on about last week when they need to put fluids into you. We could get Matty to make up some of the bits with his angle grinder, and use an impact driver to put them in. Yeah but no but yeah but no but..., Oh my god! I SO can't believe you just said that!

"John Rumm" wrote in message o.uk... Now to be fair the first sentence was actually right, just most of the the remainder was complete bull. Well I did admit that I was wrong. Unlike some of the others, who actually keep quoting the bit I was right about and not the bit I was wrong about when they start chucking the abuse about me being wrong, I do admit when I am wrong. |

"The Medway Handyman" wrote in message news As we know the malicious, nasty, spiteful, spineless little **** has grassed me up to trading standards. They don't accept anonymous complaints. So if the little ****bag wants to pursue that, he will have to provide a genuine, verifiable name & address - in which case I will be informed & will publish it. To my knowledge there have been no complaints to TS about you. The exact wording is I think you need to tell one of your recommended service providers to stop claiming he harasses customers into paying for work done. In the usenet postings http://groups.google.co.uk/group/uk....o+git&lnk=nl&# He states that he got a woman who was slow paying to pay by texting her every hour for two days. He doesn't think this is harassment but I do, could you clarify if it does count as harassment as he just gets abusive about it. TS may ask you what you did and explain what you did wrong. If you hadn't been so pigheaded and actually admitted that you were doing something wrong and had said you wouldn't do it again instead of telling me and others that it wasn't harassment there would have been no need to seek clarification. As it stands the ball is in your court to show that you are not some thug who likes to abuse people, etc. as no complaint has been made but I wouldn't bet that they are not reading this group. If they do something then its your own doing as I have no control over your behaviour either here or at work nor of their behaviour. I don't get abusive with you or others, I'm not behaving like the thug here. BTW why do you think its anonymous, if one of their staff had read it they could take exactly the same action as they can now. I will state it again for you (is this four times or five?), don't brag about your wrong doings in a public forum, you don't know who is listening. Some people don't have the tolerance that your drinking buddies have. |

"Steve Firth" wrote in message .. . geoff wrote: The real problem for positive drivers is other cars like denise, **** all to do with bikes Sadly not. Bikers are vermin. I'm forced to agree.. the number of times a biker has nearly wrapped himself around the side of my car because he thinks I am going to slow down to a crawl on bends and islands is amazing. I don't think they are taught anything about riding at all. I notice that it tends to be the BABs that do it most. They think they know how to ride a bike but forget that cars don't need to slow to a crawl just because the road is wet and don't bother to look to see if the car that going around the island has stopped or has just carried on at the speed limit because nothing was coming before cutting across all lanes. They appear to be a bit shocked when they discover the car is still next to them in the adjacent lane. I do wonder if its the helmet that restricts their vision or maybe it overheats their brains and sends them stupid. Not all bikers are like this but there are quite a few who I have had to brake for when I shouldn't have to. I expect the drive a BMW when not on their bikes. |

As a matter of interest, have you ever haggled for a discount off any goods or services that you wished to buy - or even "paid by cash" to avoid paying VAT on something? If you have, then you are a hypocrite and if you say you haven't, then you are telling 'porkies'. I have haggled over prices lots of times, I have even paid cash. I expect a receipt, if the trader doesn't put it through his books he risks getting caught and I will not lie to protect him. If the VAT man asks for the receipt he will get a copy. Somehow I get the feeling that you are the type who would haggle and ask if you can have it cheaper for cash, and when you get it, smile and thank them, before shopping the trader to HMRC for doing you a favour. I never ask a trader to do anything illegal, in fact I have never asked anyone to do anything illegal AFAIK. If a trader thinks evading tax is a good idea that's his problem. |
