I got my new licence back, but need to check the entitlements...paranoid you see. What's on your photocard? I've tried to upload a copy of mine, but failed.
On the front in section 9, I have A,B,BE etc, etc.
On the back all of these categories have an expiry date of 2041.

This is good, right? This is what I need?

2041?


That'll make you 103
I feel like 103....103 inches round the waist, possibly.

So, what does your licence say?

...so you will now be guilty of driving without a licence. One of our staff members' wives got fined for not noticing her licence had expired. You may get away with it for say 14 days but she'd been out over a month.
Techinically I think you're also guilty of driving without insurance as there's a clause on policies that says it's only valid if you hold (or are not prevented from holding) a valid licence.

One to watch out for...
Fleegle, the insurance issue could be a serious one.

Your insurance isn't void. Any clearer? Way too many people jump on this and it's completely wrong.
It's perfectly clear to me what you meant, but why?
If too many people are jumping up and down, or what ever it was you were mumbling on about, why don't you enlighten the masses rather than posting that st response.

Are you trying purposely to be a tosser, or are you one without realising it?

Guys- put the handbags down biggrin:
Loon- a simple case of simple Chilli mis reading responses
Chilli-Loon didn't realise you meant "Thnx- that was really helpful"

Now play nice

There
I've arbitrated so fk off wink
Eh? No, no, no. I didn't misread anything. What would have really been helpful is a bit of an explanation. This would have been helpful to everyone reading it. He was acting like a prick, simple.

Bullst. I quoted another poster's comments highlighting it may be an issue. Explain to me how that was posting something stupidly incorrect?
The correction was helpful? No it wasn't. Something explaining why and backed with reasons would have been helpful, and you know it.

My initial bullst post? It wasn't supposed to be helpful you moron, it was a question.

Have a day off mate and read it all again. Unless of course you're currently in bed with our helpful friend? I guess so.

I'm always up for an argument as its much more fun than being all nicey nicey.

I like how he OP calls himself an "idiot" then gets upset when someone agrees with him though.
No-one asked you to be all nicey, just helpful. Why would you WANT to argue? I don't understand that.

Also, why wouldn't you want to explain for someone a situation that we all know you know everything about, that could perhaps save someone a load of grief? You never know, one day you might appreciate some advice.

And no-one called me an idiot. Your mate suggested that my response was a load of bks and I've corrected him too.

Bullst. I quoted another poster's comments highlighting it may be an issue. Explain to me how that was posting something stupidly incorrect? because it is not an issue
Then explain why.
The correction was helpful? No it wasn't. Something explaining why and backed with reasons would have been helpful, and you know it. I think correcting your incorrect statement was plenty helpful.
Then you're wrong.

My initial bullst post? It wasn't supposed to be helpful you moron, it was a question. no it wasn't you posted "Fleegle, the insurance issue could be a serious one." which was WRONG - are you getting it yet?
Do you know what initial means? I'll help you out, go to the VERY FIRST POST in this thread. There, ARE YOU GETTING IT NOW?

Have a day off mate and read it all again. Unless of course you're currently in bed with our helpful friend? I guess so.
I'm not your mate.
At last...a correct statement.

You called yourself an idiot in the title of this thread.

I simply said insurance isn't an issue as you and another poster said it was without anything else for me to go on to be able to explain why it's not an issue.
Ok. Where did I say it was an issue? I didn't. At all. FFS.

ETA: FFS. biglaugh
"COULD" be an issue..."COULD". Do you need yet another lesson in the English language? The difference between "could" and "is" seems to be a problem for you.

You're still banging on? How 'COULD' it be when it IS NOT?

Just admit you made a silly mistake and move on. (FFS)
Not at all. Banging on? ME?

I'll happily admit it when I've made a mistake...it happens every now and then. Thing is, I haven't here. I said it COULD be an issue, before Loon said it wasn't. Then you decide to suggest I stated it IS an issue. It's fairly clear, and it's clear you have mis-understood or mis-quoted. Either way, you are wrong.

Pothole said:
No, I am not wrong. Why can you not just admit you were and move on?

I'll say it one more time just so you're clear. It could not be an issue, because it is not an issue. There is no issue, there never could be and there never will be. 'could', in this instance, was incorrect. Clear?

I'm out.
You're out cause you realise you're wrong. You realise that I didn't actually say what you thought or assumed I had, and that in fact my response was posted before Loons......and now Loon has left you alone, you feel all alone...vulnerable....defenceless.

It's ok son, it's alright...it's not a competition. Go home, have a cherry coke, and a snuggle up with mommy and you'll be ok. Tomorrow's a whole new day...

Sorry Chris, you're absolutely correct.

Talk to me about my bed. I got a memory thing that, well, has lost it's memory. I've only had it 6 months. Other than taking the boys for a shop visit, or alternatively buy a new one, can they be fixed? Turned upside down? Watered? Set fire to? Anything?

Not an uncommon syndrome Nick.

It's called the Buchan phenomenon. It loses any concept of what it's own shape is meant to look like & consequently just collapses into a shapeless pile of flabby stuff. Usually brought on by being left lying around for too long without being turned head to toe & patted occasionally. "Moisture" does NOT help this condition. wink

Seriously, it should not be like that especially after just a few months. It should have been turned head to toe, ideally once a week for first 2-3 months, but in nearly 100% of the time, NOT turned over i.e. upside down. Have you turned head to toe?
Is it a composite/hybrid type i.e. combination mem foam & spring?
If it truly is suffering from "trenching" (leaving the approx shape of your bodies on each side of the mattress) then deffo not right & should be covered under guarantee. What make is it? Bought in UAE or from UK?
6 inches of foam, over a normal mattress. I've never turned it though. Bought in the UAE so probably made in China...chances of a refund of a replacement are zero. I'll turn it round and see what happens. No idea of the make, but the trench is only on my side, and given that Lis is currently heavier than me, makes no sense. I'll look for the make etc tonight and email you if that's ok?

Certainly is sir. We had to move house after that though....couldn't get the mud off the walls.
