Ordered loads of bulbs from T&M 10th Aug with delivery date of end September. Not turned up and despite my many calls nobody can tell me when I'll have them apart from by end November!! Wanted them for school garden and at this rate it'll be too cold and solid for the children to plant them. Grrrrrrr!!

[Muppet194]

On the plus side, I've never ranted before! It's really cheered me up!!

The user can change/remove the signature from their iPhone or iPad. You can do it people, it's in 'Settings' or sommat - just g**gle it FFS - You can do it!

It's not in settings, but at the bottom right hand corner of a reply or post, '...' You click on those,and then click on where it says 'signature' , and delete,where it says 'sent from iPad etc.

Hope that helps,if I can do it, anyone can!

iphones, after moaning yesterday about the app thing and saying I'd never get one have been given one as a work phone. It's the most complicated thing I've ever had to use, far less intuitive than my android phone - arghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh. However as I have no choice in the matter have posted elsewhere for basic advice

You'll soon get used it, and then wonder how managed without it!

I used to have a 'work' one, that was different to own 'personal' one, that was tricky at times!

Dissapearing things:
I am working alone with say a hammer, I put it down to do something when I look for it again it has gone! I have not moved from where I was when I put it down, no one has been near me, yet its gone. Enen more frustrating after an intensive search the object suddently re-appears in a place I had already searched ten times.

Oh, that and usually patient and helpful people who don't realise they're being 'blunt' when they're busy and tired.

Finally, Lotto. I really would appreciate my numbers being chosen, just this once!

Yes Mr Lorry the road is down to one lane. It is signposted for some distance, look there are the signs, 600 yard, 400 yards, 200 yards. Oh you've now run out of lane and expect the rest of us who have been patiently queuing to let you in.
Oh and Mr BMW where in your handbook does it say you have to be arrogant and aggressive and sit on my bumper, it won't make the traffic move faster.

I'm probably making it worse, but the Highway Code says you should merge in turn when traffic is congested (rule 134).

Just sayin'...

Agree with than, not driving up the outside lane which is going to be closed and barging in to be further ahead. Driving around here is so aggressive.
My rant? Why am I awake at this ridiculous time?

I love it when people sit on my tail like this, I go into grandad mode and slow right down, looking at house names and signs etc. It drives them crazy. Eventualy they back off a bit so I speed up a bit.

One day i pulled out of the garage forecourt, there was a car coming but I judged i had plenty of time, he came right up to my bumper flashing his lights and blowing his horn. I made a rude gesture into my rear view mirror, yet he continued. me gesturing, him tooting. In the end I pulled into a lay by and he followed. He came running up to my car and I laid my hand on the pipe wrench i used to carry for such situations. He tapped on my window which i lowered a little and said "Whats your.......king problem" "Erm your petrol cap is on the roof of your car" he kindly told me!!!!!
