That nasty DTM fella...
« on: 19 November 2014, 21:34:36 »

Following this evening's minor hiccup with the database server, I ran some random searches through it, and noticed a theme:

February, when my car famously failed its MOT on something that will not be mentioned

And you would NOT beleave what the bunch of jobsworth tossers have failed it on!......


....its so funny.

lol.....cant stop laughing.....its bloody funny and hes not happy!

Looking forward to seeing the full report in todays local paper'

Mr TheBoy stated when interviewed, 'I was just enjoying a cup of tea whilst surfing the net in the bath when I heard a distant noise.....'

'imagine my surpriise when entering the kitchen I found the dishwasher working perfectly still......'


He's a nasty bully to poor souls like myself...
