If that's faulty you would only get steam as the pressure won't be enough to make coffee This does appear to be the issue, having been bought new last week and being used four fucking times. Would rather go through the rigmarole of getting a refund for such shoddy workmanship than order replacement parts on balance, as they'll probably fail just as quickly. On the plus side the coffee grinder is doing fine and I'm not going back to the barbarism of preground coffee regardless. -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MONKMAN Posted November 18, 2020 Share Posted November 18, 2020 Looks like our "Glorious Leader" is getting her very own Reichstag building.I’d be more than Happy for Nicola Sturgeon to be honoured throughout the motherland, with soviet-era style behemothic monuments. As the woman who’ll eventually lead Scotland as an independent nation, it’s the least she deserves. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The amount of folk that message asking if an item is still for sale then never get back to you when you tell them it is. Can only assume they are considering selling a similar item and are wanting to find out if it sold at the price you've listed it for. Or when they show up and try to haggle, sold something for £20 last week, this muppet shows up at the door and offers £15, said no, and got the £20, but thinking back should have just shut the door in his pus, off you pop back to Arbroath, clown. eta, despair for the human race.

Thank you. I was selling a jumper online for £100, guy offered £80. I rejected then a few days later he come in again, this time with £70 and by this point I just wanted rid. Agreed £70, he said "meet me in Tayport". Fuckoff, said I. "OK, I'll cross bridge, meet me at Matalan?" fuckoff, said I. "Look mate, I'll give you the £80. Where can I pick it up?" He just got rubbered after that and I'll keep hold of the jumped until nearer Christmas. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was getting rid of two carrier bags full of brand new golf balls, so it was a good deal, no need for being a chancing c**t, but no no. Part of my late fathers stuff that I've got to get shot of, so it made it a lot worse.

This is the brand that's served me well because a refund is certainly what you need. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I dunno if it's something in the software that triggers people to act like they have to haggle but I almost admire the brass neck. They'll try and negotiate down on anything. Even when my ma was giving away a wardrobe for free someone messaged and asked if she'd deliver it as well. Unreal.

welshbairn Posted November 18, 2020 Share Posted November 18, 2020 Some c**t offered to buy a van on Gumtree, seemed really keen but the MOT was due, so he said get it through and it's a deal. So it got through the MOT and he said GTF. Hang on, that was me.. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My younger two were born in E'burgh and we loved the four years we lived there - such a lovely place which I'd happily retire to. Apart from its beauty and architecture the New Town's main asset is living in Scotland whilst feeling insulated from the Natter horde which pollutes the rest of the Central Belt. -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At least when it comes to football. I know roughly what I'll be getting back by looking but I find it easy enough to do fractions with a calculator if it's a bigger accumulator. I have no idea what's easier in a spreadsheet though as it isn't something I use. The picture below is the normal type of odds you see. I could put those in order of best to worst pretty quickly. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
