The EADD a trifle annoyed thread.

knock said:
Just paid a £46.50 fine for failing to renew SORN on my motorbike. I'm not annoyed about that, but slightly miffed to discover they've just made SORN indefinite so it doesn't need to be renewed any more. Paying a fine for an obsolete offence :!

I forgot to SORN my bike when I took it off the road to do some major work on it about 5 years ago. I got an £80 fine for that, but continued to forget to renew the SORN - then I moved house. Lack of money means that I still haven't finished it, but when I eventually do, I'll be scared to tax it in case there's a huge bounty on my head. Any idea how I can get around this?
 
I imagine you could tax the bike without paying all the fines you've incurred, that's probably a separate issue, but you'll need to tell them where you live at some point, and then they'll come after you.

I would speak to a lawyer, but then lawyers aren't cheap, probably more expensive than just paying the fines, you may be able to get legal aid though. I doubt you'll get "off" scot free, but you could probably come to an arrangement to pay off the fines in instalments if you can't afford to pay them in an oner.
 
That is shite as hell knock. Also I want a motorbike.

I am mildly annoyed because I thought my cheque would clear today. Got a text from the bank going 'lol you've got £1.14 bye' so tapped my mate up for £50 while Monday She duly sends it over (I fucking love her I do) and then I got check my account at the machine and it goes 'hurray you have £100!' so I'm buying the essentials and then going to spend six weeks trying to get onto my banking website to send the now unnecessary fifty back to her. I realise this is mostly snoo but for FUCK SAKE what's the point in sending text account updates if they're wrong?!
 
I should probably market that idea to banks, I think it'd make a lot of people a lot less fucking annoyed. I swear at ATMs more than almost any other inanimate object

Bugger! I was hoping you were going to say "Dunner worry mah mate, you'll be ok".

Actually, I'm more than a trifle annoyed about this bloody stupid rule in the first place! As an old timer, the idea of having to apply to take yer vehicle off the road is totally alien to me. Perhaps I could plead senility?

On more than one occasion I've been caught saying 'cheers' to an ATM, or something to that effect.

It's not even like you can start coughing heavily and hope you've disguised it. The only way to redeem yourself is to get out of the vicinity as soon as possible.

You might be ok. Actually try the CAB, they have lawyers on hand and are free. Might take a while to get an appointment though, I imagine they are quite stretched at the minute, but time doesn't seem to be of the essence.

Oh god yeah, I thank the bloody things all the time and at one point had a breakdown which still leads my older friends to go 'HELLO PLEASE INSERT MY CARD' when they're out with me

Cars are similar. I was driving round town the other day with the window down (I'm not one of THOSE people, I just hate feeling trapped) and was singing along to Blondie while stopped at a traffic light. Realised someone was staring at me and tried to segue into banging against the steering wheel and muttering about 'fucking traffic'.

My annoyance today is unrelated. My parents are over doing work on the house and I was stacking my book shelves with Mum when I hear Dad musing about the state of the bottom three stairs and I go to Mum 'he best not take the entire fucking staircase out. This was followed by a 'Yep this whole thing's gonna have to come down' from the kitchen :|

That man LOVES removing staircases. He did it once at my parents' house because one of the steps squeaked and it annoyed him so I woke up, went to go downstairs, and nearly died. And of course I own the only fucking terrace EVER that has the bathroom upstairs, I am dying for a piss and refuse to go in a bucket or go squat in the outhouse and get spiders up my fanny or something.

lol thats really quite amusing, i sometimes talk to myself in public on the streets, im really approaching the point of being past caring what strangers think anymore. Its funny that the more i adopt this attitude, the less grief and abuse and funny looks i get from them. ;/
 
I have been putting off cutting my hair while it is still about but it has now got to the stage where if I even touch my head my hair falls out.
Just brushing my teeth now results in about a 100 loose hairs falling into the sink.
Time to give up the ghost and get the clippers out.
 
Chemotherapy making my hair fall out. At least my eyebrows seem ok so far but now have practically no pubic hair.
Bald balls.
