@trent_dan I look forward to reading your review on the Audi #plottwist

[James Drake @JD_James_Drake]

@PaulVealsReal @trent_dan I was thinking more that it would likely never have experienced full throttle or seen over 2,500 rpm so it would benefit from a thrash-tune.

@Carpervert I know @sniffpetrol said no more Rally driver alter egos but… I can’t believe you missed the well known Scottish plant hire business Colin McCraene Hire. I tried shouting it at my car radio but I guess you guys couldn’t hear me or something.

@trent_dan @julkinen @Odaekim That’s making my OCD hurt.

Here is today’s edition of “on hold waiting for any kind of update on the replacement of my faulty @sonos product”. I’ve Lost count of the number of web chats and calls now. What started as great customer service in identifying the faulty playbase went downhill FAST.

[James Drake @JD_James_Drake]

Hey @Sonos any chance of me ever getting a replacement for my faulty #playbase ? The replacement was “lost in transit” back in December and since then no amount of web chats or phones calls (where I get bounced between sales and tech support) seem to be getting me anywhere.

@trent_dan @BMW @BMWUSA I’ve recently been trying to teach my kids that they shouldn’t ever use the word “hate”.... but goodness me that’s bloody awful and I hate it!

[James Drake @JD_James_Drake]

@Andy_Francis Sad. So sad. Nobody knows electoral fraud better than me.

[James Drake @JD_James_Drake]

@richardbrunning And if I could just add, if we can’t find humour in amongst the extreme bravery that one of the heroes used a Narwhal tusk as a weapon then the terrorists are truly winning. I’d like to buy that person (and all the others) a beer!

[James Drake @JD_James_Drake]

@richardbrunning Me neither.
