Snaggles does he drive/ride into work and then use there vans? If so could he park on a main road somewhere or in a residential street. Then the people that may be causing this wont be able to vandalise the car. Are any other peoples cars being vandalised or just stu's?0

I didn't know there was a chaos challenge, but I seem to have inadvertantly joined it. I have spent every spare minute of the last two days trying to sort and clean our junk room. I have cleared about a third of it so far.0

Yes, it's just happening at work. It's tricky because obviously he doesn't want to 'cause trouble' when he hasn't yet been taken on permanently.
The slightly irritating thing is that he's earning about £200 a month more in this job than the last one, and so far this month, the tyres have cost us....£200! :rolleyes: But it could be worse!
It definately sounds dodgy to me too.0 -
There's clearly someone after his tyres.

That sounds very dodgy Snaggs...
Would someone be worried that he is going to be getting a job with them or something?
I'd make sure he says something to his supervisor or something...Empty pockets never held anyone back, only empty heads and empty hearts can do that -Peale0 -
bbrr.........just back from a walk round the park with the pooch.
Santa's grotto opened today, it looks fantastic. There are also some rabbits, 2 turkeys and 2 ponies for the kids to look at. I was chatting to the guy who runs it and he has paid £80 for each of the turkeys!!! :eek: I asked if he was going to get them to sit in the oven for a couple of minutes whilst he arranged potatoes around them to see if they will make a decent Christmas dinner which he thought was quite amusing. They normally have reindeer but they haven't been allowed to move them from their Kent home to Dorset because of the foot and mouth recently. Apparently Dorset is one of the few infection free places down here and they don't want anything spreading. He is telling the kids that because the reindeer worked so hard last year delivering presents, Father Christmas has given them and extra 3 weeks holiday and ponies are being used instead"Stay Wonky":D

I just typed a bit fat message and the cyber gremilns ate it!!!

.....Hmmmmmm
I had to ring him and he told me £80 ~ I was (kinda) ok with this as I REALLY didnt want it to be over £100. He did get VERY argumentative and defensive when I DEMANDED the reciept for the part though :rolleyes:
Anyhoo ~ when he turned up it was only £71 and no reciept as he didnt end up needing the cylindar that cost £60+ :eek:
Methinks we have been *done* but not as bad as we could have been!!

So it was going to be £80, but he didn't use a cylinder that was going to cost £60, so it saved you £9... :think:
