HoylandOwl Posted September 24, 2023 Share Posted September 24, 2023 Having a run of what feels like godawful luck at the moment, one thing after another, for the past few months. But I won't go over them.... There's been flu / viral infection flying around the house for the best part of a week, everyone's had it, kids have been mardy because of it, the missis has really been ill with it the last few days. Needed some new front tyres on my car the other day day, got 2 fitted, oh, mate your wheels need realigning too... I ask, is it really bad? He just looked at me gone out.... No reply. Awkward silence... How much is it? Extra £65... Oh just f**king do it then. (I didn't swear at him but that's what I thought) I did about 70 miles in the car on Friday. Not used it since. This morning, get up to take the lad to play his footy, drivers side front tyre, one of the brand new ones. Flat as a fart. I nick the missis' car to take the lad to footy. Thankfully, he won, and played well...I thought, I'll have to sort it when I get back... I can't go out to get it sorted because the missis is comatose upstairs in bed with this bloody virus and I've got the kids to keep an eye on. And I'm busy all week, so can't get home to take the car to be sorted till at least Saturday. Just f**k off. Things can just get f**ked right off. Right, that's that off my chest. That feels better. 🤣 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We've all been there I think haven't we when the fan and the shit continue to meet a little too regular for our liking! It's a little better this week...A little. So it maybe missing the fan by the weekend! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HoylandOwl Posted April 1 Author Share Posted April 1 Father in law had his front door smashed in at 1am this morning, attacked with a baseball bat, he tried fighting back but they've taken his car keys and his car. Thankfully he'd got an AirTag in it, thanks to that, the feds have found the car, it was parked up in Donny next to a car dealership. It's his motability car.. What's the world come to?! Cowardly bastards attacking a vulnerable old(ish) bloke. Thankfully he's got away pretty lightly, he's been left with a pretty substantial graze on his arm but he's ok. C**ts. Absolute c**ts.

HoylandOwl Posted August 5 Author Share Posted August 5 Well, more moaning about tyres. Just noticed one of my back tyres is flatter than a pancaked hedgehog on the M1. Bastard nail in it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bastard nail in it. You'll be feeling deflated. See not as exciting as my story of being in a police car chase I posted on Facebook a week or more ago ! Though that pales, an old work colleague, her sister and her Dad were all injured when a car mounted the pavement and hit them. Last we heard her Dad was still in hospital with a broken bone in his neck. Story even made the BBC website. The bit that sort of freaks me is how you happen to be in that place at that time. In my case there were so many variables involved. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
