    • A 'violent left wing mob', comprised of a chap in a red hoody with a damp polystyrene coffee cup and a bit of wet cement, gets nowhere near cowering frightened farage some distance away on top of his double decker bus .. as farages security and support seem to film the incident grinning     Farage bravely flinches, grimaces and seems to almost burst into tears as the 'objects managed to travel a part of the way toward his position on top of his bus. His reactions honed by having a bit of milk splash him at a prior incident allow him to swiftly fall into a protective cower and grimace stance .. .. Sometime after, once the mob of 1 had been safely bundled away, farage apparently wipes his eyes of tears, and rising from his cowed and frightened pose, bravely shouts “I will not be bullied or cowed by a violent left-wing mob who hate our country.” .. however few they may comprise of.   https://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/crime/nigel-farage-cement-barnsley-reform-uk-b2560501.html  
    • According to Parkopedia parking is limited to two hours.  I don't know how accurate this is though. What were you doing there for four hours?
    • no its friday 21st by 4pm if you'd done it properly and read the sticky in post 2 it clearly says: ^^^^^ NOTE : WHEN CALCULATING THE TIMELINE - PLEASE REMEMBER THAT THE DATE ON THE CLAIMFORM IS ONE IN THE COUNT [example: Issue date 01.03.2014 + 19 days (5 days for service + 14 days to acknowledge) = 19.03.2014 + 14 days to submit defence = 02.04.2014] = 33 days in total Date of issue XX + 19 days ( 5 day for service + 14 days to acknowledge) = XX + 14 days to submit defence = XX (33 days in total)  if your defence filing date falls on a W/End, you must file by friday @4PM

    • Hello,

      On 15/1/24 booked appointment with Big Motoring World (BMW) to view a mini on 17/1/24 at 8pm at their Enfield dealership.  

      Car was dirty and test drive was two circuits of roundabout on entry to the showroom.  Was p/x my car and rushed by sales exec and a manager into buying the mini and a 3yr warranty that night, sale all wrapped up by 10pm.  They strongly advised me taking warranty out on car that age (2017) and confirmed it was honoured at over 500 UK registered garages.

      The next day, 18/1/24 noticed amber engine warning light on dashboard , immediately phoned BMW aftercare team to ask for it to be investigated asap at nearest garage to me. After 15 mins on hold was told only their 5 service centres across the UK can deal with car issues with earliest date for inspection in March ! Said I’m not happy with that given what sales team advised or driving car. Told an amber warning light only advisory so to drive with caution and call back when light goes red.

      I’m not happy to do this, drive the car or with the after care experience (a sign of further stresses to come) so want a refund and to return the car asap.

      Please can you advise what I need to do today to get this done. 
       

      Many thanks

    • We have finally managed to obtain the transcript of this case.

      The judge's reasoning is very useful and will certainly be helpful in any other cases relating to third-party rights where the customer has contracted with the courier company by using a broker.
      This is generally speaking the problem with using PackLink who are domiciled in Spain and very conveniently out of reach of the British justice system.

      Frankly I don't think that is any accident.

      One of the points that the judge made was that the customers contract with the broker specifically refers to the courier – and it is clear that the courier knows that they are acting for a third party. There is no need to name the third party. They just have to be recognisably part of a class of person – such as a sender or a recipient of the parcel.

      Please note that a recent case against UPS failed on exactly the same issue with the judge held that the Contracts (Rights of Third Parties) Act 1999 did not apply.

      We will be getting that transcript very soon. We will look at it and we will understand how the judge made such catastrophic mistakes. It was a very poor judgement.
      We will be recommending that people do include this adverse judgement in their bundle so that when they go to county court the judge will see both sides and see the arguments against this adverse judgement.
      Also, we will be to demonstrate to the judge that we are fair-minded and that we don't mind bringing everything to the attention of the judge even if it is against our own interests.
      This is good ethical practice.

      It would be very nice if the parcel delivery companies – including EVRi – practised this kind of thing as well.

A shepherd was herding his flock in a remote pasture when suddenly a brandnew Jeep Cherokee advanced out of a dust cloud towards him. The driver, ayoung man in a Brioni suit, Gucci shoes, Ray Ban sunglasses and a Boss tieleaned out of the window and asked the shepherd: "If I tell you exactly howmany sheep you have in your flock, will you give me one?"The shepherd looks at the yuppie, then at his peacefully grazing flock andcalmly answers "sure!"The yuppie parks the car, whips out his notebook, connects it to acell-phone, surfs to a NASA page on the Internet where he calls up a GPSsatellite navigation system, scans the area, opens up a database and 60Excel spreadsheets with complex macros. Finally he prints out a 150 pagereport on his hi-tech miniaturized printer, turns to the shepherd and says:"You have exactly 1586 sheep!""That is correct, take one of the sheep" says the shepherd. He watches theyoung man select one of the animals and put it in his Cherokee. Then theshepherd says: "If I can tell you exactly what your business is, will you giveme my sheep back?""Okay, why not" answers the young man."You are a consultant" says the shepherd."That is correct" says the young man, "How did you guess that?""Easy" answers the shepherd. "You turn up here although nobody called you. You want to be paid for the answer to a question I already knew. And youdon't know **** about my business because you took my dog."

Keep me a good looking sheep Freaky. You'll recognise me 'cos l'll be the one in a Springbok jersey.

 

Another true story from law-student lore. Defendant appearing at Worcester Crown Court on a rather disgusting charge was asked if he had anything to say in his defence. He told m'lud he'd drunk eight pints of cider and as he walked home the sheep had smiled at him and so he couldn't help himself.

 

Think I've now figured out for myself what pmsl means after last night's nocturnal chats.

 

An educational thread indeed, pd, bet you're still sleeping:cool:

 

Regards to all.

Well done Van - I had to ask - I think it was Auburn (greeneyes) who told me, 'cos it 's usually her that's doing it! :D

 

BTW PD, the car boot went not bad - got rid of a load of junk, and came back with a new load of junk! LOL! :rolleyes:

Now Johnny, you've really got me confused after a bad day:confused:

 

I think we're both on the same wavelength, as it were, but just can't believe it was Audreygreeneyes who enlightened you as she is so correct in all her posts.:cool:

 

So who's Auburn?:D

 

Must admit the name's vaguely familiar but can't find her on the 'search' function:confused:

 

Mind you, if it is Audreygreeneyes who's usually doing it, then I just hope she's wearing her dark trouser suit so nobody notices;)

 

This thread is really taxing the old grey matter: before much longer I'll be able to understand what they say on 'Eastenders'.

 

See you at Freaky's party?

 

Best wishes.

Having got that query put forward to johnny, I'm quite happy to watch pd having a bit of the old doh-si-do with her partner (in Spanish of course) and even jowalshy on the grapevine and stripping the willow.

 

Wish I knew what these ancient feudal customs were. Perhaps Freaky will enlighten me?

 

Are they anything like Morris dancing where all the chaps go jingle-jingle when they go to the Gents' (sorry unisex restrooms)?

 

I'm game for mostly anything (but not daisy chains!)

 

See yawl there folks.

I think that we were talking about the party in Freaky's barn turning into a barn dance.

So who's Auburn?

 

The quick answer, Van - Audreygreeneyes used to be Auburngreeneyes till she changed it - I preferred the original and she kindly gave me permission to keep using it...........:)

 

As for freaky's party , that really would be something if we could all be there.......... such a great rapport on this forum, it's terrific!:D
