What has your "friend" been up to?
Discussion
My friend believed that his significant other would approach him if she started to hear any weird grinding/banging/whining noises from her little italian steed.
The first time he has been out with her in the little italian in 3 months, he heard many strange and intresting noises and when questioned was told "He (the car) does get shouty when i go down the lane to work" after further questioning It appears she has been doing between 40-50MPH down a back lane with quiet large speedbumps on it.
My friend was meant to be looking for a replacement for the itialian steed, but has taken to ebay to buy a parts car without his significant others knowledge!

My friend has just found out he is not the only PH'er in the village. My friends new Neighbour has the infamous PH crossed pistons on the rear of his quite nice fiat 500 abarth. My friend has decided he is going to keep quiet about the fact that PH (or maybe his village) is not quite as exclusive as he once thought.

My friend has been going for several months on shagged back brakes (bicycle). Finally gets his arse into gear, and gets some new pads. New pads won't fit, fortunately Halfords had promised the would (money back 
). In doing this, my friend has found that his front calipers won't come apart. So friend duly tries WD-40 and water. So friend has now successfully shagged his only working brake. 
Anyway, friend invested in swanky new brakes for not much more than a change of pads, so it wasn't all bad.

That's a kind thought from your friend about my friend, BV.
My friend is still a pillock, though.
It's not the money my friend's annoyed about- it's not a huge amount- it's having his car off the road for a day during a busy time, and knowing he caused it himself. C'est la vie.
Your mate and BV's mate may well get rusty specs in the paint behind the wheel with the worn out brakes. It happened to a mate of mine My friend is still a pillock, though.

my friend has bought a 5 year old BMW 330d to replace a leased Audi S8 going back. Not in the same league, but still a very good car, and my friend was won over by the pretty immaculate 'individual' moonstone silver paint job. On the second trip out, and in the exact spot where the same thing has happened with in 2 previous cars, he drove into an annoyingly placed post at the entry of the work car park. The front bumper is now cracked, and the headlamp washer is busted. Likely a new front bumper and a front end respray as a result. One of the previously damage incidents was only 6 weeks ago and was with the lease car, which is still on his f
king drive and doesn't get inspected until tomorrow. So without even wanting to have two cars at once, he is currently in possession of two cars with very similar damage that he's waiting to get shafted for.

Your friend should probably be more careful. king drive and doesn't get inspected until tomorrow. So without even wanting to have two cars at once, he is currently in possession of two cars with very similar damage that he's waiting to get shafted for. My friend would have thought, with a fairly recent crash in your friends memory and one before that too, he wouldnt need reminding.

king obvious advice, rather than just playing the fking game, reading the fking story and moving the fk on. My friend was booked on the 7:15 train from Manchester to London last Wednesday. He got on the train and ejected a woman who was sat in his pre-booked seat and sat down. When the train pulled away at 7:05 my friend st himself as he’d got on the wrong train and was heading for Bristol. Fortunately all trains out of Manchester stop at Stockport so he was able to get off and wait for the correct train.
He had to scamper past the sour faced woman who was asked to move elsewhere though!
Another one of my friends set fire to his garden yesterday by burning away weeds. He’d forgot it hadn’t rained for a month!

My friend once set fire to his bed whilst, er..., interacting with a woman of his acquaintance. He and she did not notice the fire for quite a while, apparently. This may or may not have been a consequence of one or other of the three or maybe four recreational activities that they were involved in at the time.

I. Er. What? How?My friend didn't allow sufficient time for an automatic door to open and, as a result, faceplanted it. It's not the first time. He just won't learn, the moron.

My friend also does this, he also fails to notice that some of the doors open towards him, as such he is there trying to stop his forward motion and engage reverse rather fast. He berates himself on choosing the wrong door every time, but does not learn.
My friend was working late last night and caused a massive flood in his firm's office building when he very lightly twiddled a tap, which fell off the wall, unleashing a Biblical torrent of high pressure water (the pressure regulator in the town where my friend works has apparently been busted for ages) . This was fire hose pressure, and a mega flood quickly ensued. My friend had to emulate the apocryphal Dutch boy and shove his thumb in the hole to stem the tide, but the pressure forced his hand out after thirty seconds or so. Eventually my friend found a mop handle and shoved it into the hole and put his body weight behind it, remaining thus (soaked to the skin and freezing cold because the aircon was blasting way) for twenty minutes or so until someone found the stopcock that was hidden in a dark cupboard several floors below, behind a sign saying "Beware of the Leopard".
My friend has been struck by how few of his colleagues adorn their offices with nice stuff. Most work in rather bare rooms. The flood, however, happened right above the office of the one colleague apart from my friend who had made the effort to fill their office with nice stuff. Oh, great.

A mate of mine was driving home after a party, going a bit fast and slid into a telegraph pole. The pole fell over and the car was totaled.
Luckily he was unharmed, but because the pole was rotting at the bottom, BT lost the claim and had to pay the insurance. Nice little Kia runaround until he finds a new motor and no claims unharmed.
Jammiest guy I know.
