03:32:07 <rust_collector> I hope they realize they were wrong
03:54:19 <MrMobodies> Did the ice cream cause the collapse with the amount of sh*t they put in them.
03:55:19 <MrMobodies> I was going to treat myself to some Haagen Daz last night at the Co-op to find out they changed too. Whilst there is cream there doesn't seem to be much and they combined it with all the other crap they put in Cadbury's Ice cream
03:56:04 <MrMobodies> and the indgredients seem very similar to that of Ben and Jerry's 24% cream..
03:56:23 <MrMobodies> and other amounts like they came out of the same factory

09:32:35 <MrMobodies> I see how they scam customers
09:33:11 <MrMobodies> they add a time out when they type their registration so if they are slow it'd go to the next step to payment.
09:33:32 <MrMobodies> with no option to cancel until payment is made

11:49:27 <MrMobodies> Can't believe Sainsbury's are supporting these crooks to run their car park

11:49:30 <EEVBot> [url] Sainsbury’s defends new ANPR parking rules at its Sittingbourne store | www.kentonline.co.uk
11:50:36 <MrMobodies> they shouldn't have to flap about and waste time enterin their number plate in, correctly.
11:51:25 <MrMobodies> or be penalised of "breach of contract" and taken to court for getting it wrong or when the machines miss out charactors on the number plate on the print
11:51:53 <MrMobodies> Isn't that ridiculous and onerous?
11:51:54 <MrMobodies> https://www.kentonline.co.uk/_media/img/750x0/IBDUD14X2FMEBLQEX0NG.jpg
11:52:45 <MrMobodies> having barries and payment machines were the driver reaches it through the window so much easier
11:54:25 <MrMobodies> So the driver gets out, enter's time, pays, gets a ticker, stick to window and that's it. Store don't care whether drivers check in or out.
11:54:42 <MrMobodies> "We are making it easter to park by removing pay and display machines..."
11:55:28 <MrMobodies> Visit pay station, and enter your vehicle registration number and pay for your parking? Who is going to remember their number plate? Not everyone might.
11:55:48 <MrMobodies> collect refund voucher and give it to checkout.
11:57:00 <MrMobodies> sounds to me very aggressive and predatory to their car park where the supermarket seems to want to check up on the and micromanage every aspect of their shopping including filming their car.
11:58:00 <MrMobodies> Maybe they are getting big commission for it from the parking company.

23:38:58 <MrMobodies> Very worried
23:40:26 <MrMobodies> my dad told me that the neighbours (back garden) above our driveway (seperated by a brick wall and conifers) installed since this house was built in 1984 is 3 foot over their boundary.
23:42:42 <MrMobodies> They want 3 foot of our land which is impossible because a garage is there with a 1 foot gap. I got to see, whether, they were the original home owners, if not how many occupants that bungalow property have and was that even there when this was built in 1984.
23:43:28 <MrMobodies> Land disputes are just horrible
23:44:28 <MrMobodies> even the winning side that I read articles on are sometimes forced to pay the other sides bill so no one wins and both coule be forced to sell up.
23:44:51 <MrMobodies> Oops I mean legal & court bills
23:46:37 <MrMobodies> IF it ever got to that (my home is lost) and they ruin whatever life I have left with this, I'd feel like killing them and there is no smoke without fire when they pretend to be the victim.
23:47:23 <MrMobodies> the conifers are their's behind the wall
23:47:55 <MrMobodies> anyone experience land disputes before?
23:49:55 <MrMobodies> Installed ultravnc on my Duo core with the ISA slot for the sound card and only 2% cpu usage when dragging things around. Very pleased with that ad don't need to turn on the noisy KVM switch.
23:51:03 <K> isn't there like a statute for 30 year old buildings that deal with this sensibly?
23:52:26 <MrMobodies> I know if squatters occupy a home for about 2 decades or so it becomes theirs.
23:53:44 <MrMobodies> The problem is, the person suing over the land could reappeal, reappeal again, then go to the high court, even though it is always turned down and both home owners could be forced to pay (if the pursing suing doesn't have the money to pay the legal bills)
23:56:50 <MrMobodies> their land space is quite big so I don't now what they are worrying about.
23:58:54 <K> well, world is full of dickheads, unfortunately.
