^I've already tried telling them that my back is crap (like it is) and that my head can't take it (like it can't) but they still wanna keep me there >_>

Couldn't you get a medical certificate for your back?

^Welp, after trying again constantly, I finally got out because of my back. Only downside is that I'd have to go again in 2 years time but we'll see about that..

So you'll be moving to Switzerland in 2 years?

Swiss men go to army service too.

I think he was referring to their whole non-extradition thing.

Fear Deer · January 23, 2014

Move to portugal :evil: no one will force you to go to the army!

The Compensator · January 23, 2014

And you'll be stalking him. :fp2:

Fear Deer · January 23, 2014

No, I'll be cruising with him like a boss!

iNotACactus · January 24, 2014

I'd offer for you to stalk me but there's a tiny ocean in the way.

TDUFREAK500 · January 24, 2014

you could always move to NZ :) its a beautiful country and no compulsory army service :)

mau92 · January 24, 2014

We don't have obligatory military service in Argentina neither... Well almost that we don't have army at all :|

superhyper · January 24, 2014

Thanks for the suggestions guys, I don't think I'm gonna be moving anywhere though :lol: I do have an option, I could do civil service instead, which is a lot easier. Only downside is that men who don't do army service here are looked down on...but guess what? #aintcare :p

Didn't manage to fix my car so it's now not got an MOT. :(

Apparently, the lack of a working switch system for my rear fog lights means that my car is not road worthy and can't be driven in sunny weather. We've only had 1 day where the fog has been bad enough to warrant using fog lights this winter! :mad:

Fear Deer · January 24, 2014

Yea here your car won't pass either without working rear fog lights, not that they're used often..

Camel · January 24, 2014

They do work though. I just need to put the fuse in to turn them on and take it out to turn them off. :lol: The relay got stuck when they were turned on so now won't turn off, even when the dipped beams are off and the car is locked.

Ryzza5 · January 24, 2014

As I recall this car didn't have a working fog light switch either...

How does that MOT work? You have a scheduled date and if you wont make it then you cant drive the car?

Camel · January 24, 2014

Pretty much yea. You can renew it up to a month early and it lasts for another year.

I could only get mine booked in on the day my MOT ran out and the fog light problem happened the day before it ran out. Not enough time to fix it so now I can't drive it until I fix it sometime next week.

The Compensator · January 24, 2014

On Thursday and Friday mornings I began to choke due to a lot of phlegm in throat that I have had since last week. The doctor prescribed me antibiotics and we had to buy an inhalator, so tonight I spent an hour sitting and inhaling. I'm afraid what is going to happen tomorrow morning.

But when you fail it can you pass it as soon as you fix the car?

Happens to me on occasion not that much now, instead of an hour it's the whole night for me struggling to breathe.

On another note just your typical bad day...don't often post on here because atm I'd be here everyday :lol: *cries*

GTAMADDOG · January 28, 2014

Cat died of kidney failure today.

Crap start to 2014 among other things. How can it be worse than last year already.

calster17 · February 27, 2014

3:45am, normal way home from work, come round a corner and there's a badger on the road, swerve to miss it and result of hitting rocks/ditch. Thankfully older cars have spare wheels, and I'm one of them guys who likes to make sure its in good condition.

As you can see, I'm getting a new alloy and tyre...

RobikV3 · February 27, 2014

It doesnt look that bad can't you just repair this one?

calster17 · February 27, 2014

The rear one I could get away with repairing, but not sure on this one. Whole lip has been bent out & kinked. So to play it safe I'll just get a new one for the front.

Also could cost more to fix it than just to get new(£80 per alloy, no tyres.) but will see. Rolling 3 of one alloy and a single steel wheel just now :lol: May put the original alloys back on for a little while. Hopefully pop by one of the places in the weekend to get it looked over.
