Whats hacked you off today?

DMCT - FF · 07-04-2009, 4:21 AM

Ok - new one! Never in my life ever thought it would come to this! My wifes nephew comes over this morning while I am still sleeping. Wakes me up to borrow money for "gas" Have given him before only to find out it went to other things (bevies! even at that hour of the day!) I say no, hs seems fine, moves on, I go back to sleep - wake up only to find my tank was drained of 3 litres! Should have slept with the key under the pillow! the little b@$&rd!

The bad news is that he reckons I have a slightly warped disc... plus I need a new set of tyres.. and thats in addition to the new chain and sprocket set I already know I need......

This is gonna get expensive

Yeah I know how you feel, took the bike in for a tyre....£400 later

companys like this make it hard or impossable for me to give good deals out to everyone else

Oh Im sure you can fiddle with the margins of other stock, so that you can do a fairly good deal all round.

Poor Macca more like it.

GFI, Macca. Don't hold back on our behalf

How very, very Thai. But it wouldn't have mattered who had the key. They know how to get at fuel without that

Setanta, this guy's located in Thailand. Either approach would more likely see you paying the nephew real money or spending at lot of time in the 'Bangkok Hilton', and I don't mean the nice one.

vville123 · 07-06-2009, 4:21 PM

Hacked off and in pain.

I stopped this morning on the way into work to check my tire pressure. While I'm checking the rear tire, some Fing meth head walks up to me and asks for some money.

I said sorry I dont carry any cash man.

He says give me what you got.

At this point I'm standing up and had my lid in hand.

I said if you think you can take it.

He pulls a Fing box cutter and takes a swipe at me.

He caught me in the right side of the face.

I blasted him in the face with my lid.

And in the side of the head.

He took off running, I jump back on the bike and get home to check myself out.

Fing head wound 1 1/4 long, it will not quit bleeding.

I try to strip it closed but it needs stiches.

All the M.D.'s I know are still out of town for the 4th.

I grab my med bag and put 5 in my face to close the wound.

(And yes I had all the stuff to clean it out)

Fing great way to start the day.

..... Glad you got a wack in....

Shame he ran away before you got a chance to give him a propper shoeing

I busted his nose or lip with the face shot, cause he was bleeding.

The head shot was right on, I think he'll feel that one for awhile.

This is exactly what I ment by having patience??

Good showe there young man; Just let it all hang out

, tell us how it feels, and exactly where it hurts.

There now, take a thorazeen capsule, you should feel better in the am.

( this bit of poke at fun is due to the fact, that I have run into the same F#!@$!ingS#@$! before too.)

Anyhow, Loops, do you have one of those Steibel horns? They're fabulous.

HORNS - STEBEL-NIPPY NORMANS - the No. 1 supplier of BMW motorcycle accessories!
