Tony got a brain

by kevvy @ 31/01/2007 - 07:41:32 pm

A daredevil motorist has been caught driving a Porsche 911 Turbo at 172mph, the fastest ever recorded on a public road in Britain.Tim Brady, a courtesy car delivery driver, had allegedly ‘borrowed’ the 192mph car from his employers and taken a friend for a spin when he was clocked by police doing speed checks from a bridge. He was stopped a few miles further on after they blocked the A420 dual carriageway near Abingdon, Oxon. Now you may have read this and it now makes total sense to me why the police need a 211mph Lamborghini Murcielago so they can park it in the middle of the motorway and stop the traffic with it. Well his Tonyiness if you are reading my blog and you even lowered yourself to read my email regarding  The Metropolitan Police unveiling the world´s fastest patrol car - in the shape of a 211mph Lamborghini Murcielago - that could one day be used by forces across the UK at a cost to the tax payer of only almost £200,000 BEFORE you train the police to drive it, fit it with everything police and buy a BMW X5 to follow it behind as it has no boot space to stick the cones and brush to sweep the road after a crash. Tell me this much why do you need it or even them if you are going to block the road with cars, you could use any car to block the road and the extra money could pay for more police on the street more doctors and nurses. But most of all Tony thank you very much for proving that you  have not got a clue what we want or need. It must be costing at least half a million to run one lambo per year including insurance etc. Plus again how green is it? Well if you are round town get lucky at 20MPG stick your foot down Mr policemen will have to pull into every service station on the M25 now he the bloke he is chasing only has to have a car that has a bigger tank and does a better MPG and escape city, so as I have Citroen C2 turbo diesel which I get 60 MPH teach people to drive in, so if I start with a full tank stick my foot down and Mr policeman is chasing me in his  Lamborghini Murcielago all I have to do it wait until he need to fill up a couple of laps of the M25 should do it. Mind you I would be f**ked the policemen behind bringing the cones and broom in the X5 will get me !! 

Come on Tony grow a brain will you be making sure that before they get in hte Lambo they are wearing Gucci shoes and D and G sun glasses after all we would not want them to look scruffy would we

I was stuck in the office waiting to go to werk and I got thinking how good are we at caring and helping others but crap at sorting out our own problems, I have been werking so hard banging my head in my life but I m so brilliant at helping others supporting others, so why do I find it so hard to solve my own problems.I bet so many people reading my ramblings are sitting right now nodding and agreeing with me, so how come, rhetorical that one folks it’s a bit like hindsight, I know that my wife gave me a big bucket of it once and keeps blaming me because I lost it. But something I am interested in has anyone discovered green tea? A few weeks ago we used out last PG tip tea bag and went kettle tea pot real lose tea and of course a tea straner. And discovered so many lovely tastes, but green tea how nice no milk or sugar Kev

X-ray cameras 'see through clothes'

The Government is considering installing X-ray cameras on lampposts to spot armed terrorists and other criminals.According to a leaked memo seen by The Sun, "detection of weapons and explosives will become easier" if the scheme drawn up by Home Office officials is adopted.However, officials acknowledged that it would be highly controversial as the cameras can "see" through clothing.

"The social acceptability of routine intrusive detection measures and the operational response required in the event of an alarm are likely to be limiting factors," the memo warned.

i just read this on the web i have not got gods gifts to bodies and carry a bit to much fat, i know that i dress well and my clothes hide it very well. if i wanted to walk around naked i would

Where is my refund

by kevvy @ 28/01/2007 - 11:11:03 am

People when read my blogs may have read about my problems with the bank and refunding on Friday, but I omitted to say that Thursday I took back to Pcworld a keyboard and mouse for a refund. Now when I went into Pcworld I choose the keyboard and mouse went to the till took out my bank card put it into the machine and after putting in my pin number took £79.99 from my bank account, so Pcworld let me take away my purchase. Now as I could not get the thing to work correctly as it was a RF keyboard and mouse and every taxi, or mobile phone seemed to switch it off I took it back. The process was almost the same I queued got to the till gave him the keyboard and mouse, my card and he put it through the machine and gave me the refund receipt I walked out the shop got in my car £79.99 richer. Well no the money never went into my bank but I gave him back the keyboard and mouse, all I got was a piece of paper so where is my money? I have checked my bank again this morning and it is still not there, has it said to itself, I had a shit Christmas no one got me anything I think I will go on a short winter break on the way to Kevin’s account! That nice Mr and Mrs Richards took me to a very nice hotel in the Lake district once and spent me on a slap up meal, I think I will give that place a look in on the way? Or maybe it felt like the leaders of the world and captains of industry are all in Davos, that is where the real money is I pop over there and take in a bit of skiing and live the high life for a while before he wastes me on junk food and another katt.So tell me this oh people of blogland why can’t we go into the shop and say I want a refund, give them our card sign a bit of paper saying when the money lands in our account we promise to give them the goods otherwise they will take our money back again why should we sit for days and sometime weeks before we can benefit from our money, if you went into Sainsbury this Friday to do your weekly shop give them your card and it took a week for them to get the money they would not allow you to take the stuff away so why should we have to give it back before we see our money

Footprints

One night a man had a dream. He dreamed he was
walking along the beach with the Lord. Across the
sky flashed scenes from his life. For each scene, he
noticed two sets of footprints in the sand: one
belonging to him, and the other to the Lord. When
the last scene of his life flashed before him, he
looked back at the footprints in the sand. He
noticed that many times along the path of his life
there was only one set of footprints. He also noticed
that it happened at the very lowest and saddest
times in his life. This really bothered him and he
questioned the Lord about it. "Lord, You said that
once I decided to follow you, You'd walk with me all
the way. But I have noticed that during the most
troublesome times in my life, there is only one set
of footprints. I don't understand why when I needed
you most you would leave me." The Lord replied,
"My son, My precious child, I love you and I would
never leave you. During your times of trial and
suffering, when you see only one set of footprints, it
was then that I Carried You."

Random

I have been up since about 6am this morning not sleeping well at the moment, and I have been looking around the web but mainly this site, reading blog’s and looking at other people pictures media etc, I have found some really interesting things a lady who paints and has several pictures of her work, another chap who enjoys hot air balloons so many pictures of that. I found a person who likes Big Mac’s and he has a few pictures of them as well as his mobile phone. I was asking myself why one person had a picture of a kebab, and another of a random car part  it got me thinking about my media do people go and look at mine and do they wonder about my mental state, after all I have some katt pictures and even the picture I use which is supposed to look like me or be me is a picture of a katt, well I suppose the point is that we have these pictures because they mean something to us, and others look at them and must wonder sometimes why.

Refund, its my money can i have it please

by kevvy @ 27/01/2007 - 03:58:46 pm

I had a day and a half this week, everything I touched went wrong and it ended up with Clare and I falling out this morning, my car went back in for the 3rd time to have the repair put right, off the road 3 days and when I got it back it was worse than ever. So they are taking back in and starting all over again taking off the original panels and replacing everything which will cost them about 4k. The cost of the repair in the beginning, the body shop have been wonderful every member of staff have been kind and understanding and thanked me for not losing it.Well I wanted to order some new software Vista and Office 2007 so I found the right company and paid via PayPal, on my company card, well the first time I paid the wrong amount so it as refunded so I paid again and it was refunded again by mistake, so I paid again and this time it was not my fault the other two times it was they said my address was not verified so I had to sort that out and pay again. Well I did and cocked it up paid twice so they refunded both of them and asked me to sort it out and pay again. So I did, but my bank said sorry run out money. So I rang them, the software was £350 and as I paid 6 times for mainly my fault it totalled a great deal of money. Well I explained dot the back that I paid 6 times and it was refunded 6 times and why had they stopped the 7th payment, you have not got enough money you are £40 short, from that account. But hang on I have it all coming back its been refunded. Well that can take several days, why does it, they took it fast enough and they refund has gone through I have the paperwork for each one of them. Sorry nothing we can do, you will have to wait, but why, I buy something I pay the money leaves my account and enters there’s, I walk away with the goods. So why when they give me a refund do I give them back the goods  walk out of the shop and have to wait a week for my money?

Sauce with that

by kevvy @ 27/01/2007 - 03:10:27 pm

I have just come back from a haircut and the chap cutting my hair asked me if I had seen the new subway. I said no and as it was lunch time went for a sub, it was grand opening day buy one get one free and balloons’. Now it is very important here to state the following, I was born just next to the Bow Bells in London while they was chiming at 6pm 48 years ago, so that make me a true cockney I am white my best friend is a Muslim and I was on the family table for 3 days at his wedding recently, lots of my friends are gay and from many other regions of the world.OK so we have that right as I do not want any comments about lack of understanding or being racist.So I am standing in the very long queue listening to my iPod, and making my way slowly to the front, I get there and the lady, who looked like she was from Africa and had a very African accent, asked me which bread I wanted, so I said Italian , from the choice of 3 she then asked me what I wanted in my sub, I said I would like the Italian, as in the filling. She had already cut the bread and asked again so I replied yet again, and again. At this point I wished I asked for something else. She then wanted to know if I wanted meat in the sub, yet again  said yes everything that come in the Italian sub, and some salad. She pointed out that the bread was Italian bread, which she has got for me and cut for me and I said yet again I knew it was, she asked me what filling I wanted and I yet again said Italian. I then pointed out it was not rocket science, and pointed to the board and ran down the list of sub’s they did until we got to the Italian and the Italian spicy, she then got it I wanted the Italian spicy. No I wanted the Italian, the people behind where getting quite annoyed with me as I was taking so long. But she spoke little English and had little understanding, anyway a young chap 17 with spots come with his superman outfit to help. He stuffed my foot long with all meats Italian and given me to the Africans sister, who asked me what salad I would like, lettuce, tomato, onion, olives please, she fills my sub with tomato onion and olives, the girl next to her who seems very Polish and had a much English as someone who never spoke it ever was filling my get one free, mumbled something so I pointed and repeated so she put in lettuce onions and olives. They both looked at me like I was daft and compared subs, so I yet again repeated and finally between 3 of them superman made a return visit. I got my order, that then left me with do you want sauce with that or the 3rd African sister, she asked I thanked her and said no. What not even mayo she said, I assume that is what she said she held up mayo, no thank you I replayed and was left finally with the till. Well I asked how much, standing with a great deal of change in my hand and could not understand what she said at all gave her a £20, after she gave me the change which took about 5 minutes as I do not think she could understand the money, I notice they did coffee, so I asked for one. She said £1.80 now I had to ask 5 times and in the end the lady behind me and her bloke and me tried to get it so I gave her £1 and 2x 50p thinking £1.80 it was £1.30 .Please, please when employers give people job’s would it not be a good idea to try them out in a fake shop somewhere, for several reasons I understand that we live in a multi cultural society and it is something I believe is good, but when we are serving the public and you have to talk let’s just use English in England in main stream shops.
