You'll get me banned with banter like that

[lozz]

My Mrs swears. With every other word
She takes after her mother. Who's Irish.

Keep having to tell them off. As my kids are copying,
I only swear if I hit my phumb with the lump hammer, and she will have ago at me for swearing

I was speaking to Jasper about a typical womans logic..... Don't even go there, even I don't understand that...................

Nothing to add really seems like the lads are covering it

I am quite frankly shocked that any garage would miss something that screams out to me as being so f*cking obvious!
Why piss around with the ECU when it would of perhaps been cheaper to LOOK and replace the pump, or am I being a stupid woman here and blowing this out of proportion?

Jeez i love it when a woman swears mmmmmmmmm

If a woman swearing with "piss" gets you excited Puggy, you should meet my Mrs - you'll chuck your muck after hearing her language for 10mins!

Read it again i think you'll find Puggy got excited about f*cking... Oh nothing new there then.

Mine IS Irish - & blond. It's like living with a younger Mrs Brown. But we do have some classic comic moments at times. Will have to start documenting them (you know, in the way that women seem to document everything their husbands have ever said so that they can use it when they're in the sh*te for something). Her mother used to come out with the best ones though. You know the plastic they put on the cucumbers? She thought they started putting that on to stop women getting pregnant.

At 63 she had her first time on a plane when we booked her a flight over here for Xmas, but she was sh*tting it over the flight as she said the planes go so fast & wouldn't be able to stop for the traffic lights. We did try to ease her fears by reminding her that she'll be thousands of feet in the air & asked what the traffic lights would be doing up there, but she told us not to be silly - they're screwed into the clouds! My Mrs eldest didn't help though - he kept winding her up by giving her his shopping list to get at the duty free shop when the plane stopped at it halfway over.

Some of the stuff my Mrs comes out with is confusing'
Turn that big light on,

Its the same size bulb in the living room as everywhere else
But because its in the living room its the big bulb,


Most words end up with a back to front conversation,
A bit like a sat nav, she's to big to throw through the window or she wouid
Be on a grass verge somewhere. Too,

Hold on, 63?

As you probably all know, my wife's Croatian, and there's a few times where we just get caught out with the differences between the languages. For instance, the 1st draw is the top draw - "Bring me the whatever, it's in the first draw." "Which fecking one is that then?!!", they have no separate words for "nervous" or "angry", so when I get caught out by the level crossing for the 10th time that day she says to me "don't be nervous." "I'm not fecking nervous, I'm fecking pissed!!" Boring=annoying (but I think I can give them that one). Then there's stuff which I think I've mentioned before, like the instant Defcon 5 of going out "Will you please get ready now." like I've been ignoring her for half an hour. And there's time keeping, e.g. for 7:30 we would say "half seven" while the Croats say "half eight", it's half to eight of course, but it still occasionally catches us out. I even forget sometimes talking to my mates here, so I try to get everyone say "seven-thirty" to avoid confusion.

My Mrs catches me out with the kitchen cupboards

Where's so and so,

Er its in the end cupboard,
Oh OK

Just go in open all the frikin cupboards its easier
Never bother asking anymore,

I can put money somewhere no one can find but the notes must have a tracking device coz
She never fails to find it

If the car isn't overheating then I suspect something else will be at fault.

The coolant would be black if the HG had gone.

Mayo in the oil can just be a sign of a little water from lots of Stop/Start journeys.

Maybe she should get rid of it while she can#?

[Doggy]

I would love to say I don't swear often........ but that's complete bollocks

So say it anyway - that's what we do.

My daughters 1.4 petrol 206 died of H/G failure recently, which was a damned shame as it was otherwise OK. Her's was chucking out so much coolant, there was no choice.
If your friend's car's not got water in the sump, still running on 4 cylinders, isn't pumping steam out the exhaust and it's not overheating without the stat, it might run for a fair while if treated gently.

Oh and a friend in France ditched his 1.9 non-turbo diesel 206 after recurring misfires, failure to start and several ecu replacements, (only one of which he paid for). The 1860 or so cc diesel's known for it, apparently.

At least she calls it a cupboard - in our house it's a press. Then there's "yoke" which is absolutely anything - "Get me that yoke from upstairs" makes sense to her (& did to the older kids), but means bugger all to me.

But we must never forget the mysterious magical place called "up" - whenever anything goes missing in the house it's because she's put it "up". Once it's been put "up" it is never seen again. It's no good trying to be smart with this language barrier either as it just gets you into trouble.

Her: "What did you do with that yoke"

Me (not knowing what the f*ck she is looking for): "you put it up & I can't find it"






Where's the black eye smilie gone?

[Sonia406]

Friend 1 has taken it back to the garage who say the pump is NOT at fault and that they have a Peugeot Tech coming to look at it soon ........... I have a feeling that's going to be expensive...........
