Davkaus Posted March 6, 2019 Share Posted March 6, 2019 (edited) Some stupid bint just wrote my **** car off. Driving along at 30 down a main road. Another car stops at their junction on a side road, on the other side of the road. no traffic in that lane. she stops, looks, doesn't see my bright yellow car with headlights on, and pulls out. Caved in my rear passenger door, and span me off the road in to a bollard, trashing basically every panel. RIP my first car.

Already told them there are no injuries. Bit of a twinge in my back, but I think that's more to do with me being shit at football than the crash!

In the next month you'll wake up in a cold sweat after terrible nightmares. In the next year you'll withdraw from society and become a drifter. In the next decade you'll be recruited to do a covert mission for the Highways Agency to look for survivors of RTA. Well......that's what your no win no fee lawyer will tell her insurance company.

mjmooney Posted March 7, 2019 VT Supporter Share Posted March 7, 2019 It's World Book Day, and once again primary school kids all over the country are dressing up as characters from the worlds of film, TV, music... anything but books. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be fair to the little ones on a day like this morning, most of anything they are dressing up as will be something that has been released in the last 20 years that more than likely started as a book with a film made from it and vice versa. I can't think of many characters that they would/could dress as nowadays that will only feature in a book that hasn't had a cartoon or a movie made from it. Fwiw, my wee one went to school today dressed up as Princess Belle from Beauty and the Beast. I get what you mean though MJ, why not leave world book day as a day you need to bring your favourite book to school only and ditch the dressing up aspect?

I purposely told my daughter to go as a book character so she’s gone as Alva, the Viking heroine from Riddle of the Runes by Janina Ramirez, one of her favourites! sure, none of the spidermen or batmen will have a clue who she’s dressed as but she knows and loves the book!

theboyangel Posted March 7, 2019 Share Posted March 7, 2019 Have worked like a bitch for the past 18 months on one job and won’t have a summer holiday this year due to it. the missus has been brilliant so i’ve booked up 3 nights away in Bath with no kids travelling today. typically, yesterday my back decided to flip out once more so now I have a slipped disc in my lower back.... its been great for around 3-4 months and i’ve been exercising and stretching daily with no issues... utter garbage timing 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Stevo985 Posted March 7, 2019 VT Supporter Popular Post Share Posted March 7, 2019 I’ve moved seats at work and I now sit near to one of the only other villa fans I know here. A guy just came to see him about something or other. Spotted his villa mug and started giving him some heavy football banter. Teasing him about the other midland clubs, especially wolves (I work in Wolves) about how they were the premier league club around here and now the biggest club in the midlands. Doing all this in a strong Wolverhampton accent. Fair enough I thought, he’s laying it on a bit thick but I assume he’s a wolves fan so he can enjoy it. Finally the villa supporting guy asked “you’re a wolves fan then?” ”nah mate. Liverpool football club. We’ve won it five times” (I swear on my life he said the five times bit) **** off. Glory hunting word removed. 8 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post villa4europe Posted March 7, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted March 7, 2019 yep, i can just about stomach glory hunters, there is no rule that says you have to support your local team but for me it automatically rules you out of banter with local fans, you cant support liverpool or utd and then give us shit over villa, blues, baggies or the dingles, you've waived that right 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
