Major rant time
 

:rant: Me and Shaz live in a cul-de-sac with a nasty steep entrance/exit, and today our road is a skating rink, and it had to ****ing happen didnt it, we came home after taking a neighbours little girl and parents to hospital as they could not get out of the road, and as we came in which is a sweeping left steep turn we went straight on into the curb and wrote off the offside wheels:splat::splat:

Bloody Crawley council dont even care as we reported it, there has been at least 5 incidents in our road because of this and now I am seriously ****ed off:wa::doubledown::fight:

Anyone got a cheap set of alloys 17's, we have been offered a set of 16's by a very good friend but prefer 17's, cash waiting.

Gutted for you mate, This is why i am not taking bmw anywhere.
Good for you helping your neighbours out mate.
Hope you have not bent anything else

Not good news but well done for helping the neighbour out.

We've not seen a gritter out since monday, think it's the wrong type of snow for them :wa:

Sorry to here this Baz bad news mate.

Sorry to hear this news. I am sure your good deed was really appreciated !!

Gutted for you mate. Like Dukeboy said, I havent seen a single gritter either since Weds.

Says it all when me, Shaz and the neighbours have to sort it, but people are still struggling up the hill, and we pay our taxes, think its time for a revolution, bloody councils:boom:

We popped to Kwik fit ro check the wheels out, rear offside has a chunk taken out of it on the rim, and the front offside has a serious buckle in it, but at least we are all safe after the incident including our friends and their little girl who had a bad case of croup:shock:

Sorry to hear this Baz.

Councils have been absolutely ****e over the gritting.

There is still snow on the Crowborough Cross (A26) this morning.

Crowborough is still bad, it has snowed every night since Friday, had to clear the drive every day and spend the first 20 mins de snowing the scooby.

Sorry to hear of the damage fella, can be a real **** this weather :doubledown:

We've had hardly any snow but our the road's still like a skating rink. We get quite a bit of traffic cutting through and cars parked on both sides with not many spaces for pulling in so I was listening to cars all night sliding to a stop so eventually went out and emptied a whole bag of grit on our wee stretch of road hoping that if someone did start to slide toward the wagon they'd stop short of hitting it :nod:
