Brussel's people - have a broken foot and must wear a plaster, now nothing too crazy and I can walk without crutches. But today I have been laughed at by two people, told off for being too slow on the metro stairs and nobody offered a seat in the train (which I had anticipated).

I say it's time to bring back courtesy.

That's rude. :shakehead:

New Yorkers would just tell 'em to piss off.

:glomp:

If they'd done that to me I would have said, 'You won't be laughing when I stick this thing up your ass!!"

Dunno how you broke your foot, but maybe you should take up something safer like bowling or horseback riding. Works for the Beastmaster!! :thumbsup:

At the moment, my car: It was idling really weird today on the way to work... Don't know if it's a temporary condition or if I'm going to have to take it into the shop. :sweat:

Maybe that lizard has taken up residence in your car.

no car, no problem. :) But I've heard that in the USA it's impossible to live without it.

Suggestions taken regarding my broken foot.
I will take public transport only with one of my crutches, just to hit inconsiderate people on their head!

Gmark - I broke my foot while cleaning some cupboards and moving around empty luggage. So I agree, I'll take on bungee jumping, deep sea diving and horse riding military style BUT I'll get a cleaning lady. :victory:

Nope. I can change the belts myself... It's the idle control module and valve.... And that mounted under the intake manifold... Some significant disassembly work. :sweat:

:D oh no far from it, too much cleavage and a missing accessory prevent me to ever become one. :P

I maintain it would not have happened to a true professional of the de-cluttering business. :mrgreen:

A reference to Gaijinmark's earlier post ... it's some outdoor activity where you slide from one hill to another for example. He added a link which explains what it is!

Just saw thru the manifold and duct tape it back together after you install the module. :P
