What a fucking day I've had

The BBQ Pit
1

So I set off to do some more bloody Christmas shopping:(

I’ve gone about ½ mile and I get a puncture:mad: great, just bleeding great.

I’m unable to bend so I have to phone the breakdown service to come change my tyre, 2½ hours is the waiting time, so I wait.

Bloke turns up after 2 hours (great joy) tyre is changed and off I go.

After about another mile or so this thundering great truck whizzes past laden with Christmas trees, one blows off…straight into my offside headlamp, breaks off after busting my light and then folds over into my screen smashing it.:mad:
:mad:
I am verily pissed off. Another call, this time to screen replacement place, waiting time 2 hours, oh just sodding great.

I’m sat there waiting and a twat shoots a red light and knocks this kid off his bike, kid flies through the air and lands on my bonnet (hood).

Just then the screen guy arrives, followed after about 10 minutes by an ambulance and the cops.

The bloke that shot the light has fucked off without stopping but I got the bastards number.:smiley:

The kid is taken to hospital, I’m ferried to the cop shop to give my account of what happened and my car,which I only bought from new in March, is carted off to be fixed.

Luckily, as I find out later, the kid is gonna be OK and even more luckier am I.

Why?.

'Cos I’m registered disabled and I got a courtesy car and mine gets fixed up free.

What a bloody day.

Here’s hoping the retribution for the guy who hit the kid is harsh.

And sorry to hear about your day. That’s some bad luck there.

3

Would it be a bad time to ask you if you enjoyed the game yesterday?

They could make a movie of that day. Did you manage to keep the Christmas tree?

4

Wow, that’s fucking harsh.

Sorry, man.

5

Thank you for getting the shitstain’s number. A lot of people in the world couldn’t be bothered to.

6

It was called Cadillac Man.

7

Could’a been worse. Imagine if it were a Christmas Pudding or Fruitcake that hit your windshield/screen. You’d be dead!

8

Santa gone wild! He was trying to give you a kid and a Christmas tree!

9

I didn’t keep the tree, wasn’t worth it seeing as how the bugger was broken in half.

The truck driver never even stopped but the cops reckon they’d be able to trace him and possibly do him for having an unsafe load, they’ll be in touch with me when they find him.

I kid you not, I’ve never had a day like it before…horrendous.

Wouldn’t surprise me one bit if Eccles (the cat) decided to barf on the carpet just to round things off.

villa : Have you taken leave of your senses or what?

10

Sorry that your day sucked, but know that you gave me joy with this phrase! I will be using it.

11

sorry about that day. Can you explain this:

12

I wondered when you would notice that part of the post… :smiley:

13

Maybe it’s the Revenge of the Garden Gnomes.

14

Certainly I can.

Back in 2004 I had an accident at work which resulted in my being medically retired.

To cut a long story short and without going into specifics, my back was well and truly bolloxed up.

The union I was, and still am a member of, took up my case with the powers that be which resulted, after many medical examinations, in my being declared, registered disabled.

Among other things this means that every 3 years I get a new car, insured, taxed and breakdown cover all paid for provided I surrender the cash amount I’m entitled to each week.

Any accidents I have are paid for and if the car is in good condition when I change it for a new one I get a cash refund provided any claims have not been made on my insurance. Thus far I’ve been fortunate in having no accidents which were my fault and have received the cash refund/s

Quite obviously this is a better deal than taking the weekly cash, well in my case it is, I can’t speak for others of course.

15

Oh great. Now I’m having a bad day.

I’m picturing Santa lifing up his coat and shaking his man-boobs.

16

That’s what I was thinking. Did you get a good look at the lorry driver?

17

You realize that, because you had to say “man-boobs”, the first Google ad at the bottom of the page is for “Gay Chubby Singles”.

18

God. The only one having a worse day is the kid who got hit by a car. It sounds like you woke up under a bad sign or something. Hope tomorrow goes better for you!

19

I read your explanation, but I’m uncertain if this is a union benefit or a government benefit through the health care system.

Either way, I’m sorry for the bizarre day you’ve had. All of your shopping days from now on have got to be better!

Do you mind if I ask what kind of car you were driving? Was it raining or snowing by any chance? Foggy? (Sometimes I think you might take that for granted over there.)

20

Why am I hearing “Christmas time…is here again…”? Of all the Charlie Brown Christmas Trees, the one you picked out of your windscreen would be the Charlie Browniest…! :smiley:

…Must…stop…reading…these threads…after watching “How I Met Your Mother”…

“Horatio…! We need his DNA badly to make the case, but he won’t give it up voluntarily! Do you think you can handle an ‘unsafe load’…?”

“He’ll never know what hit him, Eric…!” sun-glasses-flip [SIZE=“1”][RogerDaltry]“Yeeeeee-AAAAAAAAAAhhhhhhhhh!”[/RogerDaltry][/SIZE] :eek: :eek: :smiley:
