Was proper seething when I eventually got to see what was causing the delay. Why transport them during the day when there are tens of thousands of cars/vans/HGV’s using the motorway? Why are 2 dumper trucks getting transported much more important than every other motorway user? Shift them after 10pm and before 5am when it’s empty you ignorant, selfish wankers. Nearly 7 hours to get to Coventry because of them. Tossers. Similar to us in Oct. We were driving down from Lanarkshire to the Harry Potter Studio Tour near Watford on a Sunday to stay overnight and go on the tour the next day. Left house at 8.50am didn't get to our hotel until 9.30pm at night due to lorry overturning. Standstill on M6 for 4 hours with 4 year old Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rudolf's Mate Posted December 2, 2017 Share Posted December 2, 2017 (edited) Every 2 mins or so my iPhone displays the little swirling circle before going to my lock screen. Went onto the Apple forum and loads of people reporting this with them saying some update was forced last night. Apparently Apple have told people to ''wait it out'' Edit: Going into settings, genera, reset and selecting reset all settings has fixed it!

They're an idiot for having it well done but it really doesn't take that much longer to cook. No resting time either are there would be no juices left to keep in it.

BM1874 Posted December 9, 2017 Share Posted December 9, 2017 (edited) My next door neighbours smoke alarm. been going off since 6pm (or earlier) and there’s a strong smell of weed in the stair coming from, you guessed, his flat. Hes had his pals round smoked some and either gone out or passed out. Either way he better get it turned off soon, it’s that loud I can hear it at the furthest corner of my flat! Im fairly confident it’s not any danger of a fire risk but if I have to evacuate the flat in the night and take my 2 boys out there will be further seethe (not even re mentioning the amount of times his pals come round at 2/3-4/5am and don’t know what number his buzzer is (he lives at number 1) so ring mine instead. Going to be on privacy mode all night now. Feels good to get that off of my chest Edited December 9, 2017 by BM1874 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
