She likes to be busy in July, so we got together in July, we got married in July. Now we're parting ways in July. So long as your busy. I would've thought she'd see the ebbs and flows of her patterns, I wouldn't have married her otherwise, but she hasn't.


It's a relief in a way. July '23 is gonna be awesome. Or better yet, mediocre.




No more pity posting, I promise.

I've a great mate in London and he's only just moved there. Would you like me to pass on his number? He might have some leads

I don't want to be bothering anyone who isn't on Thumped. You all deserve to be bothered.

Bur yeah, sure, thanks.

Good luck on the gaff search m'man. Fingers crossed here.

Put petrol in the van.

The van does not run on petrol.

Waiting for a tow truck.

At least I only drove 700m before realising something was up

At least you'll get to hang out with a cool tow truck and attached tow truck dude.

A lot better to put petrol into a diesel than the other way around.

oh man. my cousin did that before when we worked with each other. had to pump and dump the fuel.
at least your diesel van got a small bit of a clean with the petrol

Aren’t the nozzles sized so you can’t put diesel into a petrol car? Unless you really try I guess.

Current running cost of this -
€130 for the tow
€100 worth of fuel to be dumped
??? for the mechanic up the road to drain it and make sure I haven't done serious damage, he won't screw me but he won't do himself either
incalculable cost to my self esteem and pride (will reduce with time)

It popped right in.

At least you dind' put diesel in an electric car.

It popped right in.

Yeah but you were doing petrol into diesel, not the other way around. Diesel into petrol does more damage so a diesel nozzle has a bigger diameter.

We had a diesel generator at a job a while ago, which they kept inside for some damn reason.

Someone mistook the Jerry can of diesel for the Jerry can of kerosene. Apparently you should mix kerosene in with the diesel or something. But this generator was running on pure kerosene. we were all inhaling mad fumes and the genny kept cutting out.

We put our bad mood, headaches, shortness of breath etc down to stress and alcohol. It was that, but it was also the kerosene. People got fired.
