Insignificant/ Significant things that BYP or just wind you up a little

Its the plastic cups that would kill it for me. I cant drink out of those kids cups and would probably have gone without or a bottled beer, if they'd let you drink out of the bottle?

Being a good boy. Only having one.

Got an hour's drive soon and cops are keen.

When I insured the monster originally they couldn't renew the policy because I didn't have it french registered by the end of the first policy. I've struggled to get any insurance due to it being UK registered but my mate has asked for proof that I've been insured to send to his insurance policy because I'm going to be a name rider

Only, I've just realised that the old insurance co has written on the proof of policy "cancelled by insurer" - but, they just wouldn't renew, which I don't think is the same as cancelled.

Getting the feeling I'm not going to have the use of a bike for the next few months which is properly BMP

<Sigh>.

Car vandalised overnight. My assumption but quite likely. Big impact to OS upper windscreen, not repairable, plus a windcreen wiper has gone missing and the arm is twisted. Happened sometime between my missus using it yesterday afternoon and 10a:m this morning.

Les dibbles came round pdq and quizzed me. They were armed and severe - parked their car right in the middle of the street and left it there because clearly this is important shit and so are they. "Does it run?" (Bloody cheek) and "Have I made any enemies?" (I think that's what they were implying). . I don't think so but who the feck knows? Maybe I sneered at a baguette or talked too loudly at the local bar? (quite likely ). Plod warmed up a bit in the end and advised me to report it (I thought that's what we were doing right there right then?) and suggested I should fix it.
It's all a bit perplexing because this village is deader than a dead thing from 8pm onwards, even at the weekends. No packs of roaming youths or drunks staggering home in the wee hours, especially on a Wednesday. No other vehicles nearby were similarly vandalised.

It's only the moighty 406 but even so ...

That Boules ball size? Would like to think an accident with someone chucking one up and down while walking past.

Fight then and thats the back of someone head. I had a this happen to me but it was a fight in the street. Someone got thrown onto the screen and you could see the shape where the back went into it. It was a few streets away from where i was living but when i went to get the car it had police tape on it. As i was the only one to have tape i took it off and got the screen fixed. Never heard from plod yet.

Where are all the ex-pats saying they left the UK because of shit like this.

I mean it's possible but the car was nose in against one of the only occupied houses in the area with not the most likely space for a bust up.

Apparently there were "disturbances" in the area that night (no idea, I was spark out) involving such grievous harm as 2am doorbell ringing a few streets away and engines revving. Which makes it less likely that I'm the targeted. victim of a racist attack and get to boohoo myself to sleep anyway.

Although I cried a bit over my wallet earlier.

I need a new screen on the wifes car. I am sure its covered on the insurance but unsure if wiper damage is covered (Previous owner) May just crack it to make sure it is covered but almost £300 was my first quote

Look at the lighter section. You will probably find a nicer looking one.

Automated phone answering systems BMP today. I had to ring several places this morning. Each time it was press this number for this, that number the other. Date of birth, say it, or key it in, then instructions on how to key it in. Another one was enter the numbers in your postcode. I seemed to spend an extraordinary amount of time going through this rigmarole and couldn't help thinking how much easier and quicker it was when you just spoke to an operator!
