Now I have turned something on, but there was no red warning! G.O.M.S. While we are on about Road Closed signs what about sets of roadwork traffic lights and cones and barriers that are not protecting a hole in the road, that could easily be shifted to the side after work , holding traffic up all through the night needlessly. Or similar in the daytime when nobody is working except for one man reading the paper in his van with the engine running. Talk about pollution as it is happening all over the country

Alongside self service checkouts at the top end of the annoyance and frustration scale for me are app based car parks. I believe I may have mentioned both of these before ........... PROGRESS?!

A couple of months back I mad the huge mistake of attempting to use a self checkout at Tescos. It took me 10 minutes and two staff members helping me to pay for two packs of sandwiches and a packet of crisps. 10 seconds - or less - for a human to run them over a scanner and display the price for me to tap my card...

I have 'zombie' hands - it is a thing (though I suspect might be a combination of cold hands and oil if I have been playing in the garden with the toys) - taps (sorry, faucets...) with automatic sensors, hand driers, stupid help yourself tills at the supermarkets, all in the hope that someone will invent something better than what we had up to 10 or 15 years ago. Weirdly the chip n pin machine - the important one to take my money, doesn't have touch screen... and works 100% of the time

Hi, we work 7am-4pm. Rate depends on experience, work quality etc. Please call the office on 01438 860368. Thanks.

Baths with spring loaded plugs in the middle so when you move you let the water out.WTF

This thread is made for me! I have wondered in the past about starting a thread about terrible design, but this is even better. Following on from the taps mentioned earlier, what about automatic taps that simply do not work. I first came across this in 1997 (so etched on my mind was the trauma of not being able to work a tap) and one would think they would work well now. But no. I know a set of three newly installed at a local sports club near me where you have to dodge between them all hoping that you will get enough little dribbles out of each to finally wash your hands.

Excellent point. And then if you go past the sign (as they are so often obsolete) and then people shake their heads at you when you are forced to turn round as it is actually closed!

We are looking for an experienced climber to lead a team at Bill Kear. Must have full tickets + lead a team before. We are located at: Bill Kear Beambrook Field Station Partridge Lane Newdigate RH55EE Please get in touch with [email protected] (01293 862666).

If my car is on the drive I will quickly move it for you. If I'm not in please tip closer to the back of the driveway.

Grumpy Old Man moans... where to start? How about the appalling use (misuse) of Road Closed signs? You cannot trust them either way and if they're legitimate you can't tell what road they're referring to. My starter for 10...

Town centre location, plenty of room to tip

Nice.. Random question, I've been asked if i could assist someone assembling logosol like this. ( i dont even know the part no aprt from its trailer job) How big a job is it? just been described as in "two big crates". I've built a frontier from crates and i know hes got machine on site. that's literally all i know.

https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c5y0y56x6veo A really nice story that was in the news and will give families hope. Now they need to work on earlier diagnosis of Hunters.

The Russian ships come and go regularly and we go up to the Kola inlet regularly to poke them with a stick and spy on their capabilities, nothing new really.

On and on then! Or should it be on and off. The problem is I do not know which way to turn it off! On the tap in our new hotel room there is a red blob and a blue blob The problem is that when you turn the lever in the direction of the blue blob, the blue blob disappears and you are left with a very prominent red blob facing you. They need a fixed line to show which blob is active. It is not rocket science!

This thread will either die quickly in a sea of rolling eyes or it'll go on and on and on and on...

Just give us a ring we are usually in but best to check. We have a couple of areas to drop. Will have some beer tokens

Morning, monsoon here since 6am. It’s bouncing! Rain before 7, gone by 11! Hopefully. Quick site meeting at 8.30am, then it’s gather up machinery and swap stuff about and then a couple of birches to winch over in the afternoon if the mood takes me.

You saved the clutch without melting the whole plastic casing, and sometimes a little oil helps break the bond. Hope you get the new worm wheel soon so you can get the 291 running again.
