Bought a Howdens kitchen during our house renovations. Spent many, many thousands - fridge packs up 12 days outside its 3yr warranty. Wait ages for a potential repair, engineer says it's not possible. Howden's response? Tough...

Ah, British Airways great standard of service as always…

Spotted #Peugeot205 and #205WorldDay are on here today. Here's a pic of mine, post Goodwood last summer. Fantastic cars.

Interested by the reaction to two new cars this week. Lots of gushing over the TWR Jag, but lukewarm reception to the new Ferrari V12. It’s always better to wait to see in reality, but initial thoughts here is the Jag looks awful and the new Ferrari’s got potential. We’ll see…

Thanks for nothing ticketmasteruk got this far then… chucked off. #oasis25

If Oasis really didn't have any idea about the bandit Ticketmaster dynamic pricing for their tickets, surely the solution is for the band to demand all purchases be reverted to their original price, and ticketmasteruk refunds everyone the 'dynamic' overs...

Brand new winter tyre wrecked a few weeks ago on Warwickshire County Council roads - causing no end of grief hours prior to leaving for a drive to France, and leaving me an additional £200 out of pocket. The disgraceful state of UK roads is an national embarrassment.
