A Beemer is a BMW motorcycle, and a Bimmer is a BMW car.

Well ocuk folks are to blame then because i only started saying Beemer after seeing you lot say that
Either way my BMW car key fob battery is low and it's not one where you can pop a little section off the back to replace it.

This instant and moment I am at home but still thinking about work and the patients and how I can treat them better so they can leave hospital sooner. I don't know why, a couple of things just popped into my head and so let rest of team know and was met with "great idea, we hadn't considered that element and that could be a future issue. We'll resolve that tomorrow." It's nice these things just come to me at random times, but I wish they come to me at the time.... Lol.
BMW even have a hipster page on their website explaining it all...

Yes, vehicles. Beemer for bikes, Bimmer for cars. Don't try and use my own evidence against me without bothering to read it boyo!
It actually made me feel a bit sick seeing that BMW.com was the first result when I googled for some random source to drag into the thread.
Sim simma!

Never ever ever have I seen or heard it called bimmer.
But who cares, not me.

House remortgaged for another two years, knocked 2yrs 3months off, mortgage free in 6yrs (will be less!) and all for the princely sum of an extra 40quid a month ontop of what I'm already paying

Did you fix? Good time to fix surely.House remortgaged for another two years, knocked 2yrs 3months off, mortgage free in 6yrs (will be less!) and all for the princely sum of an extra 40quid a month ontop of what I'm already paying
Soldato
Yeah, fixed for the two years 1.49% which is ridiculous!
Soldato
That's excellent!
Soldato
Certainly can't complain. Got room to overpay a bit more as well so I can bring it down quicker over the course of the year despite dumping a lump sum in earlier this month as well.
Got a text from DHL saying they need £50ish off me in import fees before they deliver a bunch of stuff from EKWB to me.
Was about to kick up a stink because I had no such charges for another EK delivery mere weeks ago, only to check the tracking for that last order and see "this item has been delivered but you still owe £50 in fees"
I'm down to my last 40 quid until I get paid on the 19th. Bugger

I made a bit of a mistake on my 16/17 tax return and didn't pay any Student Loan for that tax year.
HMRC wanted what was due, plus a 15% penalty, plus interest — which almost added up to the balance remaining on my SL.
They said if I paid it off in full within the next five days they would no longer have a case against me, so that's what I've done.
It's nice not to have the Student Loan anymore but it has wiped out all of my 'play money' for a little while.
