You know what really grinds my gears?

Has featured here before, but Tailgaiting 

Why f**kin bother, I was travelling at 100k per hour and the stupid bitch thought that she needed to be glued to my rear bumper. Some day I'm going to slam on the brakes, just so as I can get out of the car and say "Now see what you did"!

Aye and he/ she would be in the wrong Le , also another thing that does my head in is your in a line of traffic doing 100km per hour some fcuker overtakes you on a double white line not knowing if  another car is coming the other way and then tries to sqeeze in between you and the car in front coz if they don't they would probably be killed  stupid fcukers

Yep, therefore reducing your braking distance and causing you to have to brake to get a safe distance between you and them

Aul wans who slightly press the brake, thereby illuminating the brake lights, without actually reducing their speed. Then de woman gives out to u because ur not braking even though u know de gap to the car in front is not narrowing. The sooner automatic braking comes in as standard the better...

Scoliosis

Scoliosis 

Jesus, Ziggy, that's weird.  I'm just this minute off google trying to find details on alternative treatments for scoliosis and i just came on to this particular thread for the first time in months.  You have my sympathies, my right leg is  killing me and i've been lying on the living room floor for the last week or so in the hope it'll help straighten my spine

[ziggysego]

That is weird. What'd you find? It's painful this afternoon.

[red hander]

Some American guy sent me a free video download of exercises to carry out to straighten the spine.  I'm in work (mad, I know) so i'll try them when i go home.  i'll give you the web address in a few minutes, all you have to do is fill out a very short questionnaire.

My problem relates to about nine years ago when i suffered a double scoliosis ... was in a bad way and underwent physio and traction in the South Tyrone three days a week for two months ... have to say the hospital was brilliant, but it took another four or five months before i was 100% ... had no bother for about four years then i was in bed for a week with excruciating leg pain, literally couldn't stand (it's always my right leg, never the back as such) ... another two years didn't have any bother then last september the pain started, it's been pretty bad this week for some reason... i'm dosed up with ibuprofen, which helps

[red hander]

Zig, try www.n.scoliosis.com, some guy called Gil Kreiter

[red hander]

sorry, should have been www.nscoliosis.com (no dot after the n)

[ziggysego]

Thanks red hander.

We'll have to compare notes on the video

Oh ffs ll dont be such a ponce! 


It's a mystery to me what some people be doing at the atm machines, they stand there for 5 minutes pressing buttons, what are they doing?  I don't see how you've to press more than 3 or 4 buttons or what takes so long.
