can easily beat you all for idiots
as from my name you should be able to guess that i only have one arm( from birth)
i have osteoporosis in my only shoulder, i was at the consultants, stripped to the waist, deciding if an operation was worth the risk, when i asked the so called specialist consultant, how will i feed myself, get dressed, etc:
his serious reply:
use your other arm.
i left instantly, without having the operation

50% of doctors passed out in the bottom half of their training courses
Of that bottom 50%, 90% are worse than useless

For a smile. bricklaying students in local college tasked to set out and build 6m by 600mm high wall. 30mins later lecturer returns to find all but one hard at work. says to boy, what are you doing, why have you not started. Curt reply, "cos you takin the pi$$ outta me". I beg your pardon says lecturer, "dont diss me man you takin the pi$$". slow down sonny and wind your neck in, how am I taking the pi$$. reply, "how you expect me to build 6m long wall when you give me a 5m tape measure and others 8m ones, see told you, you takin the pi$$". Student really believed he was being abused. lecturer not wishing to burst students emotional bubble of self justification left building and was found outside shaking with laughter. Student failed to complete course and transferred to catering claiming it was easier to do cos they dont have tapes in the kitchen therfore there is no measuring to do.

I do hope he gets a qualification to justify our taxes spent on his education, and his dismay did provide many smiles among hard nailed lecturers.

Think they are told to leave the engine running as to keep the suspension inflated

Now here's my problem, I need my tracking done on all 4 wheels, not many independents offer the service so was going to use qwik fit and the like

Now do I trust they can even do the job properly !?
Or take it to a stealers to get it done ??
Hmmm...

NO!!!!

They couldn't work out how to adjust the tracking on my defender when I took it down to em.

Funnily enough I took it elsewhere.

Twice Ive been to the aforemention tyre fitters (im not an easy learner ) the first time they fitted tyres with different treads on them. the second time i ordered a specific tyre but did check them before they fitted them and found them to be not the tyres I ordered so walked out without having them fitted and abused them in front of other customers that were waiting to have work done.
