Annoying me (immensley) is my mamma, who is on a computer beside me right now, who is a total and complete maniac, with no mouse control, nor anything else. I have put her on amazon at the moment, to read about tennis books.

Most surreal post ever.

[Vivienne]

The tennis and cookery books are keeping her quiet, and I am desperate. She seems impressed by how cheap things are on amazon, however. Clearly a whole new world has opened up!

i stayed up late watching oasis live in manchester from 2005 just to see "don't look back in anger" at the end, and mr kendra k decided it was the time he had to tell me about some silly radio story about ebay when he knew i just wanted to enjoy the song on the new hd tv.

i know it's totally uncool to like oasis, but i do and it bugs me that my partner can't respect that. i mean, i don't bug him when he listens (and sings along with) whitney houston's "the greatest love".

I've just spent ages trying to unclip my headlight to change the bulb, but will it work? Will it *.

* French cars.

My boss. What's with old men coming on to me? Where are all the nice young lads?

[MK Chris]

Maybe you look 46.

[kendra k]

dirty old men will try the scattershot approach to see what sticks.

[MK Chris]

What? Foot-loose hasn't posted in this thread for a while.. well, he's certainly not on this page.

[foot-loose]

See Cat!

What did I tell you!

Sort it out, wummin!

I thought your boss was your auntie? Is there something you haven't told us about her?

I managed to do this with my mum's long-nose pliers, only to find out that the guy at Motor-Serv had sold me the wrong bulb... so I took it back this morning whacked the new bulb in and can't get the clip back on now.

In the words of our celtic friend: ach!

[foot-loose]

Maybe.


Except I know how to change a lightbulb...!

Too.......many.....joke......options.....!!!!!!!!!!!

*Yudster explodes*

[MK Chris]

Cheeky fecker... so do I; I just can't get the clip back on on a 206.

Take a look at this (I don't have a GTi, but for the purposes of the example), then tell me you could change that * without difficulty...

[foot-loose]

In all fairness, I had to change a bulb in the middle of a job recently - it did involve me buying a screwdriver set out of Tesco and hitting the front of the car repeatedly to get the light unit back in.

That said, I am just trying to make you feel better - it was pretty straight forward.

Get a better car. Or attach a torch to the front with some sticky back plastic.

The trouble is the more you try, the less effective your thumb becomes.

Gooooooooooooooooooooooooooooood mornin'!

[Vivienne]

Annoying me today is my mum (again). I have just had to order tennis books from "Amazon" because I was stupid enough to show her the site on Friday. This has now cost me fifteen bloody pounds.

[Console]

Is there any reason that your mum couldn't order the books? Or at least pay for them herself?

[Vivienne]

My mum cannot operate a computer... doesn't even know how to switch it on. How could she possibly order a book.

And the books are becoming "xmas pressies" which means I can't argue.

[Yudster]

But it does mean you don't have to worry about what to get your mum for Christmas.

[Vivienne]

I had already bought all the pressies and wrapped them! Anyhow, it's done now, and the books are heading my way on Thursday. Bye for now....

[MK Chris]

Surely you could just say "But I've bought your present mum, you'll have to pay for them yourself."

[Vivienne]

I could say it, but seeing as I am a soft touch - I won't!!

[Vivienne]

Hope you are soon better :-0
