I'd lost £12.07 to Royal Mail, a £300 estimate on a respray for the car and looking like £700+ on a new PC (if I can't fix this). I've not made a secret of my wife health and that we're (for the medium term) a 1 income family and so £1,000+ expenditure especially this close to the most expensive time for year is not welcome. It's fair to say that my mood was not one of highlights of 2016. It would be interesting to know if everyone would be devoid of emotion in this circumstances like some kind of DE obsessed Mr Spock?
Cheers mate. AppreciatedHere's a lot of well wishes and hopes for things to turn around/up within short.
Always darkest before the dawn and all that
That quote...'A gentleman doesn't...', What a load of shite!My post wasn't racist, have religious or political bearing. I didn't abuse any forum member or post a link the an ebay auction. It was in a forum topic that was relevant to the content of my post, topics subject "What made your day a crap one" is going to involve bad feelings on the side of the poster. My view is that this forum topic a way of venting off a little of those feelings without polluting the rest of the forum. So if you wander in here you should expect raw emotions just like you might expect bad language if you enter a pool hall perhaps?

But, despite posting in the correct place and observing rules I'm now expected to take advice on "How to be a Gentleman". To quote your guide:
"A gentleman doesn't make other people uncomfortable. Be focused more on being agreeable and making people feel comfortable than in proving that you're right and that the other person's opinions are worthless. You don't need to show someone up to impress women; what's far more impressive, in fact, will be your ability to get along with people."
This is a forum where, for the most part, men can discuss things with other men who have the same common interest. Sometimes, men swear. Get over it. A gentleman would perhaps have been a bit more sympathetic and realised the guys having a hard time there.Why do you feel the need to cuss like you're in a pool hall?
Bleep me, you're not having much bleeping luck lately mate.The *bleeping* heating element in the *bleeping* tumble drier has bust and the robbing *bleeping* *bleeps* want £120 for a replacement when the whole *bleeping* thing only cost me £199!
Will this run of bad luck ever end?

Just post it under both. Congrats or comiserations (delete as applicable)Does being made redundant count towards 'what made your day a crap one?'....................or should it be under 'what made your day a great one?' being as I am finally free of the last one and half years of 'am I, am I not?' torture
As my dear old papa used to say "There's always next year"
