bickster Posted May 9 Moderator Share Posted May 9 We had a big Heads of Department meeting last week and system changes were required and a new way of dispatching bookings in the city centre plus other changes. I was a lone voice against the changes but we put them into place today as agreed... Drivers are up in arms about some of the changes and some of the things I said in the meeting (against the changes) have already been shown to be true in under 4 hours. 2 drivers have left and people are now running around in blind panic over what they've caused Me, I'm just having a quiet little snigger to myself 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fightoffyour Posted May 10 VT Supporter Share Posted May 10 Northern Lights were visible in Krakow. First time I’ve ever seen them. I think they’re visible in the UK right now. Go outside, look up! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xela Posted May 11 Share Posted May 11 Seen this very car about 5 times in recent weeks, around Aldridge. Love the fact that someone is seemingly using a '66 BMC car as a daily driver. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sidcow Posted May 11 VT Supporter Share Posted May 11 I used to see a guy most days around Tyseley Road on my rabbit run commute driving a really old Mercedes of some sort. At least 70s,possibly 60s I'd say. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It happened to me at LHR once , immigration bloke asked me my purposes for coming to the UK , I kinda suggested he look a the front of the passport , he then said I needed to have a scan for TB as I’d come from at an at risk country to be fair, I’d been living in Hungary the past year and was travelling back to the U.K. to live with Mrs H who was on a Hungarian passport and had a visa to live here indefinitely ( they were non EU back then )…i think somehow he confused the petite pretty woman in front of him with the fat bloke in front of him as she went straight through on the plus side I found out I didn’t have TB 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
