Council Cunts
Stallion Explosion writes "I was in a record shop in Melbourne, flicking through the vinyl, when I found a record entitled 'Hackney Council Are A Bunch Of Cunts'"
We agree.
Have you been trapped in the relentless petty minded bureaucracy of your local council?
Why does it require 3 forms of ID to get a parking permit when the car in question is busy receiving a parking ticket right outside the parking office?
Or do you work for Hackney Council?

British F*cking Gas propertycare service
If any of you are 'evil' landlords, never ever EVER consider it a good idea to sign up to British Gas 'propertycare' service. Bunch of fucking arse. I'm working away for a few months, so let my flat out. See the British Gas propertycare service, think "oh, not bad for £35 a month for peace of mind if the boiler plays up".
Oh more fool me. Unlike your local plumber, BG can only book you an appointment between 7 and 12 or 12 and 6. So you've got to take at least half a day off for them to get into the property. The other thing is that despite you having told the useless call centre muppet on the end of the phone that if the engineer calls the letting agent 15 minutes beforehand that they will be there and stay there whilst they do the work. Apparently it's 'at the engineer's discretion' whether they bother to make this call, so invariably they don't and just turn up, knock on the door (tenants out at work, obviously) and put in their log "can't gain access").
This happened as the boiler was playing up, I happened to be back in the UK and ended up wasting a day sitting in a tenanted property to make sure the engineer could get in!
Suffice to say, I've cancelled the 'service'
Useless bunch of cunts.
