Tent, tent, luxury. I'll be standing in a field in Highworth in the rain later.

The estate agent talking to me in a completely patronising manner when I rang to take our house off the market.  He also tried to make out if we reduced our house again we'd have no problem selling, as contrary to media reports the housing market is actually quite strong at the moment.  What an absolute load of old bollocks, I know a number of people who've been trying to sell for months and getting nowhere.  I delighted in telling him that we wouldn't be selling our house for peanuts and had decided to stay put and build an extension.

We are trying to sell. Not had a person look round in 10 weeks. Market is challenging!

Sticker in the back of a car I followed on the M4 this afternoon: 'Caution: Obedience Dogs in Transit'.  I can't really explain exactly why it wound me so much, but it did.  A lot.

Had ours on the market for 3 months and only had 2 viewings. We've decided to stay put for now.

Yeah, I guess that show how slow the market is. We'll probably keep it on for now and see if anything comes of it.

This is exactly my point.  I wish they'd just be honest instead of trying to make out you're asking over the odds.  Our house was initially valued at £199,995-£204,995 with an anticipated selling price of £195,000.  We ended up reducing down to £184,995 and still got nowhere.  Clearly they over valued it in the first place?  It's a complete buyers market at the mo.

Drivers that can't hold their hands up and admit they were in the wrong, but instead try to make out that it's you at fault.

like the ones that are on the left hand lane on a roundabout and think that they can go straight on but that particular roundabout allows left lane 1 and left lane 2 to go left and left lane 1 only to go left so when you're in left lane 2 and go left they go mental.  like that?  oooohhh :rage:

Yeah like that. The two that happened to me were:

Me turning left into my street after another car, woman waiting to exit street had to wait behind a parked car before she could make her way to the junction itself. Instead waiting til I had passed, she lurches out from behind the parked car, right infront of me as I'm turning into the street. Forcing me to stop my car. I stared her out and she looked at me as if to say she'd done nothing wrong.
The other - me driving along the road - as you do. Someone parked at the side pulls out, no indicating, no looking in mirrors, no checking his blind spot. Then when I flash him and gesture "use your eyes" he starts giving me the middle finger! The cunt.
