Pointless Topics

Another pointless update, my dad won £50k on the premium bonds last year and he spent it on a new Volvo. Like you do if you’re 80.

It was ready for collection today…but my dad went into hospital two days ago because he became jaundiced and was feeling strange. He’s got some gallbladder issue and he’s fine but he’s in hospital for a few days until they can operate. He was gutted to miss collection of his car, but didn’t want to leave it at the dealer.

Anyway, my brother and my uncle (my dad’s brother) said they’d collect the car for him. They got it…then they sent me and him this video.

Twenty minutes later my uncle tells my brother to drive past the hospital. My brothers not sure what’s going on but does as he’s told. While he’s driving my uncle calls my dad and says ‘look out of the window’.

When my yellow jaundiced old man pops his head out, my uncle winds the window down and shouts some kind of abuse flicks the v’s and tells my brother to boot it :laughing::laughing::laughing:

Anyone know anything about electrical storage heaters and why they would randomly stop working?

Could it be the fuse in the plug?

Anyone know what’s going on with Isle? Was it last year Shier was saying how they were going to get it going again and put the focus back on the brand? Then they released one new series of boards, but haven’t done anything since

You’ve been on the edge lord thread on slap haven’t you? Fess up

You just sparked my curiosity so had a look. Mike Arnold on Edglrd?!!

Ha, I actually try not to lurk Slap too much - though i have just seen what you’re referring to.

I just got thinking about it after watching that Transworld skatehoarders video, becuase the Shier Fairfield’s Isle board is something I’d love to own but have never seen one come up so had a little browse on eBay, and went down an isle rabbit hole

I thought it had to be a wind up but he is indeed in Miami with Sean Pablo.

Could just be enjoying a pleasant holiday tbf

Could be, easy enough to change if or if you have a multimeter to check the fuse

Yer no problem to change it, don’t have whatever that is

I guess he wont be a guest on the Nine Club then..?

(Skullcandy is one of their main sponsors at the moment)

Skull candy seem to have an attempt at a resurgence.every 10 years or so.
Last time they had Berra manning it.
Obvs.

I thought Skullcandy was so cool when I was a 15 year old dork with a fringe

They were pretty good to us when we ran our jams. Box full of headphones every time albeit 2nds or bogging designs.

Why’d Wade Speyer get kicked off think?

My kids are watching Alvin and da Chipmunks. They thought it was ace when I just showed them ‘Dave’ doing a 360 flip on a flat bank :grinning_face_with_smiling_eyes:

My Mrs is also away on a training course until Friday. Normally it’d be PAAAAARTY but alas, 2 children, 2 cats and a dog to look after.

And I’m taking the dog to have her operation on Friday so she’ll probably hate me forever!

Yeah I am loving skateawaits on insta. Loads of Wade footage I’ve not seen before. True ATV. Never heard anything sketchy about him so wondered why.
