Came home this evening to find this under the wipers on my lude....

I didn't realise getting my car ready for an mot was against the rules!! I've responded with a note pointing out the fact my car isn't too loud, the exhaust has been within limits for previous mots and that if they wish to discuss this further I am at number 58. This exact poorly written note was put also on my other half's car and my neighbours car to make it look like they were being fair but it is fairly obvious it was aimed at me and the 'wotk' I was doing over the weekend.

This cheered me up no end today and still chuckling now

Why couldn't they have just spoken to you? So petty doing something like this.

The woman who I believe wrote this thinks she is far too superior to the majority of us simply because she owns her house rather than renting like most of us. Shame she comes across uneducated in her notes lol

It's embarrassing how easy that was to read Donald - I think I only had to back-track twice, in the whole thing!

so what is the explanation as to why I find it easy to read French and Spanish, even though I couldn't write it (or hardly speak it) to save my life?

The majority of that I couldn't decipher however the latter, written in proper English, I understood perfectly! I changed the caliper over which wasn't too loud but then had a slight knocking from the rear going over speed bumps. It was the diagnosing of that issue which made the noise and I may have 'reffed' the car a tad. And by that I mean the revs got to about 4k when I realised it was the exhaust bracket becoming slightly loose!!

Clearly we should hold a cruise down your road. In tribute to a fine upstanding citizen. To show our appreciation of her twatery
6pm is not a nuisance. I think legally anything up to 10pm is fine. Within reason obviously.

I had a similar issue before when i practiced with a band in a garage unit in a village. One person complained and got the council involved, reading dB levels and timing is etc. Drokking nuisance
