    Well, I thought I'd save myself a few bucks, probably about $10, and order a new serpentine belt through ROVERPARTS instead of through the dealership.

    EXACTLY the same has happened to me!!LOL
    I went in through Google, paid by credit card and was only taken back to the home page at the end.
    No worries, I can wait. The only thing I am a little peeved about is that they didn't flag it at checkout and maybe my card has been debited.

    It is only 2 alternator belts as spares, but now I have to remember to follow them up if they don't arrive.
    Regards Philip A

    She might see your chainsaw in another blokes hands and realise that size is really relative and a small chainsaw in a big man's hands looks a lot smaller than a small chainsaw in a small man's hands.

    Or just don't lend your gear to blokes bigger than yourself.

    Ha! This has turned into a funny rant thread. Nice one lads.

    I understand they are on holidays and deserve it, being hard workers and all that. Annoyance has now turned into mildly peeved, closely followed by acceptance, which will then turn into "hurry up!!".

    I was just put out that I could have had one sooner if I'd been alerted at checkout, given that I didn't go in through the homepage.

    Anyway, let the ranting continue! We all love a good rant.

    My holy trinity is never lend cars, girlfriends or tools.

    Though when your car is a Land Rover, it's pretty much a certainty it'll come back ****ed

    But thats ok çause it probably left with issues anyway. The secret is to have the borrower think they caused it, fix it while they have it, and then it comes back with new faults to keep you occupied searching for.

    Time for my rant.

    People often whine these days how stupid people have become, that we are becoming a nanny state and we need to wrap the society at large up in cotton wool. We need to put signs up everywhere. We need to tape off and fence everything to protect us from ourselves. Why, because even though the people involved admit they are at fault, they still want to lay the blame at other people's feet.

    So next time you are shaking your head at some new stupid thing that has been implemented and ask yourself just who is this meant for. Have a look in the mirror my friend. In this case YOU are the lowest common denominator.

    Good rant.

    Being a "Professional Idiot since 1975", it sounds as though you know what you're talking about.

    I would like to point out that I believe people are becoming stupider, not that it's their fault though. Technology, media, lifestyle, improved urban planning.... These things all add up to people becoming more lazy than they may have been in the past.

    It's probably fair to say that the people who are smartest in this world are doing their best to assist the general masses in becoming drones.
