Sir Fallsalot Posted October 2, 2023 Share Posted October 2, 2023 Fucking insurance company is at it again, tried to change the bikes over tonight, all that's different is the registration number and the value of the bike, they want £66 off me to do it i only paid £86 for the year and its a month old fucking twats i told them i'd phone back tomorrow once i processed it all and hopefully i'll get someone who i don't have to ask to repeat every question three times before i get the gist of what they are asking. 3 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Used to get to a ton in no time but would go no more as it was out of revs. 3 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skippy Posted October 3, 2023 Share Posted October 3, 2023 Well that hasn’t started positively. Got in the queue to check in hold luggage and when it opened they decided to change the desk to the one next to me so I ended up at the back of the queue. No issue really until they then decide that the original desk number was in fact correct so we all trudge back and now I’m at the back of the back of the fucking queue. Fast forward 30 mins and now I get pulled over at the security point for a random check. Everyone stares as if I’m a criminal and the security guard is clearly on a power trip. Cunt. At least I haven’t been bummed. Yet. 1 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fortunately most of our local airports are fairly small, so it's never too much of a problem, but coming back from Stansted or Gatwick are usually a nightmare! 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
XTreme Posted October 3, 2023 Author Share Posted October 3, 2023 It's gone manic here with work! I got two sites on the go and this morning I was contacted by a very prestigious classic bike dealer in the UK. What he's got is all screwed up and the twats can't sort it out......so he asked around for somebody who can actually do it properly and my name came up. So I'm doing a Demo for him now as well. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
