Having to faff about re setting the drivers window this morning. Worked fine yesterday until the Mrs had it for the day 🙄

Reset it? Maybe i'm showing my ignorance here but what needs resetting? I thought they were either closed or open to some extent and you adjusted them according 🤔 😀

The window itself was going up and then coming back down and stopping halfway when trying to close it (Bounce back) reset it and it's been fine.

I don't like that my wife's 1 year old Fiesta also has leaky shocks.

Maybe it's your area...  Do you have a lot of speedbumps?

Why is Halford's so expensive,i went down our large shopping centre and popped into Halford just to look at a few stuff like wheel cleaner,they had the Demon wheels cleaner £6.88 on offer from £8.50.

Went into B and M and same stuff £4.50 not on offer,most of the stuff is around £2 more in Halford,even my card won’t take £2 off and saying that it was £8.50,i need a 50 Discount to shop for stuff in there then it would only be close to the price of other shops,not been in for years.

I've got £30 of Halfords vouchers that can only be used instore.  Can't find a single thing that isn't cheaper and much more convenient buying elsewhere.

I used to go there with my trade card for tools, bulbs and screenwash but haven't been for at least a couple of years.  Doubt the trade card is even still valid.

Any suggestions of what to spend the £30 on are welcome... :laugh:

Why is Farcebook showing me ads for yachts costing 500k?  a) chance would be a fine a thing and b) I've never searched for them and c) I live in Rugby. 😂

I don't like accidentally leaving positive eBay feedback for an item that never arrived and eBay refunded...why do they even leave that in the feedback list!? 🤦‍♂️

I assumed it was the identical item from another seller that I bought after that one...  :rolleyes:

Don't like getting irregular hear beat last few days, misses a beat then next one makes up for it and you really feel it pump hard. Kept waking me up last night. 

My ever the helpful partner( a nurse) asked if I'd been spending money recently!! Cheeky!

I’ve suffered heart palpitations as well.I can remember once ages ago I had them for two friggin weeks.Occasionally I do have episodes now.Haven’t been worried enough to go to the doctors though.I’m thinking stress or maybe too much tea🤔

I have had these due to stress.  Propranolol really works, talk to your doctor.

I don't do stress so it won't be that.im told I'm that laid back I'm horizontal. 😂😂.

Another don't like now. Went to motor factors on the way  home . Servicing time of the year on the 2 fiestas, Mondeo,Peugeot 107 and seat Leon. 

Ouch . Spark plugs alone on seat £50!!  And the Peugeot needed a battery too. Luckily on the ecoboost fiesta I already got oil , filter and pollen filters in the garage . 

Still £350 though. That's enough to keep my heart pumping! 😂😂.none of the kids will be putting there hand there pocket voluntarily.

Stress is weird...it can cause physical symptoms even if you're not mentally 'flapping'.  Not saying it's definitely that in your case, but I've been trying to head around this myself!  

I've started getting heart palpitations recently.  Had anxiety issues for over 20 years but this is a new symptom for 2021. :rolleyes:  Can be caused by things as simple as clicking 'buy' on Amazon/Ebay, the doorbell ringing or someone blindly pulling out several yards ahead...  Mentally I couldn't care less about any of those situations, I can afford the stuff I'm buying, I never answer the door anyway (parcels are left safe) and I've generally got time to brake for the pull-outs...  Yet for some reason my heart has other ideas!  The worst one has to be 'briskly' accelerating in my own car, under my own control, on an empty road...I mean wtf is up with that!? 🤦‍♂️

Yes Tom is right, you can get stress related symptoms without feeling stressed.

I don't like wasting £8 on a pair of pillows that now resemble pancakes after just 3 weeks...

They were Silentnight ones as well, though I didn't notice which model they were.  Tbh I didn't realise there was so much choice... :unsure: 

Any recommendations?  Want something medium-firm I think, 'plump' and ideally cooling...  And I'm allergic to everything so they need to be hypoallergenic. :laugh:  Is there a pillow comparison site? :tongue:
