Visa refused after granted ?
 

Hi All...just a quickie..I was driving to the DIY shop early today with my wife when some f**king chavs drove up by us and hurled and egg at the car...W**kers. Anyway I was about to drive after em and wang my trusty 7 iron round their heads and smash up there sh*te corsa when it occured to me, that if I did and got arrested etc would i have declare it having already been granted my visa and but not already validated it and if so could i have my visa app overturned ?

I guess i know the answer and yea i have calmed down now, but belive u me i was fuming at the time.

Just wanted share that with you all.

Cheers

Last friday someone I know caught 2 lads breaking into his van so he grabbed hold of them and dragged them into his house, then called the police.

Can anyone guess what happened when the police arrived??

Re: Visa refused after granted ?
 

Well you could have ended up inside on GBH for quite a while and not been able to validate your visa so yes you could have lost it then when you reapplied you could have been refused as having a criminal record! But stay cool and calm only kids having a laugh, no harm done, or just make note of their reg no and report them to the Police :)

Re: Visa refused after granted ?
 

Blimey mate get things into perspective !!! It was an EGG ! Did it hurt you !!! Doesn't sound like you are calm to me, plenty of use with the old expletives - here's the question is Australia ready for you !!!

:D :D

Re: Visa refused after granted ?
 

It was only an egg they threw at your car, what harm can it do to your car? If it was a brick or a rock l would understand why you would want to beat them up.

Re: Visa refused after granted ?
 

I can't believe the last 3 posters who have said 'it's only an egg.' !! SO what?! It doesn't matter what was thrown at the car.....it was something. It wasn't their property. Just having a laugh? Please. How pathetic. If any of you have kids then I pity the local community you are raising them into.
Some of us are trying to raise children to have respect for other people and their property and people like you are undermining that.

I for one think it is deplorable and I would most certainly have taken the reg number and reported it. OP.....two wrongs don't make a right.....

rant over

Re: Visa refused after granted ?
 

I agree with you banjo, what difference what was thrown. (dont you think a egg smashing on a windscreen of a car could cause a accident ?)If they were driving means they were not kids. This is just something we have to accept these days as kids seem to have little respect.
Im saying this because 2 days last week I had a different tyre let down at work. Is there such a thing as a 'chav' in Australia ?

Re: Visa refused after granted ?
 

I don't think the other posters condoned what the 'chavs' did, they just didn't agree with his knee-jerk reaction to the incident ;)

Re: Visa refused after granted ?
 

Wot is a CHAV !?

Re: Visa refused after granted ?
 

Quite well said.
I hope that you didn't have kids in the car. Did anything provoke them.
My Dad warned us that the UK has got worse in the last 2 years but for that sort of behaviour to be ACCEPTABLE is appalling.
Thank goodness that we don't have gun laws as something like that could really cause a lot of trouble.
Luckily I haven't seen road rage here but I wonder do you get BBQ rage :D

Re: Visa refused after granted ?
 

yes....ignorance prevails here too.....please someone explain what a 'chav' is.

Re: Visa refused after granted ?
 

Close, they arrested him and tried to charge him with false imprisonment.

One of the thugs parents actually came round and apoligised.

Re: Visa refused after granted ?
 

It's short for 'chaval' :D

Re: Visa refused after granted ?
 

Christ Chaval where do you live, nothing like that has ever happened to me...maybe it was your driving :D

Re: Visa refused after granted ?
 

Soooo contradictory ! using language like Fu---ng and W--ker and other expletives does not to my mind teach children any respect at all. How can hearing your parents use such language teach respect? Or am I missing the point here. AND don' pity my community my children do have respect for others and I trust them to behave when they are out in the way I have taught them to behave - with respect. Only an egg - nodoby died !!!! Get it into perspective. The Poet :rolleyes: DOH

Re: Visa refused after granted ?
 

mmm

Re: Visa refused after granted ?
 

Or is it 'CHeltnem AVerage'.

Re: Visa refused after granted ?
 

Contradictory....how so? I haven't used any of the language you mentioned and certainly not in front of my children. Perhaps the OP did in his original post....but that's not related to what I said. I did also say that two wrongs don't make a right. I'm not condoning the OP's reaction but I find it absolutely astounding that there are people out there that don't see what it is that is wrong with young adults (not children!) throwing things at other peoples property.

You're quite right.....nobody died - this time. What if the they had been driving along, someone swerves goes into oncoming traffic, causes an accident in which someone is seriously injured or killed? Most likely not one of the perpetrators. Would you still turn around and say...'it's only an egg!' ?

Re: Visa refused after granted ?
 

Absolutely. these "kids" have to be at least seventeen (unless they're joy riding - but hey, if they were, does it really matter? I mean they're *just* kids right? and no-one was hurt). Pur-lease, it's "kids" like these who have no respect for others and their property (and people like "Poet" who condone such actions) that make a good case for renaming this country to "Not So Great Britain". Mind you, people like the original poster who want to go and "wrap a tyre iron around their head" (this is me paraphrasing) are also at fault. As others have said. It was only an egg, and the reaction to grabbing the tyre iron is, disturbing to say the least. Basically the "kids" are at fault, :mad: the poster is at fault, :mad: and anyone who thinks that any of the actions described in this thread is "OK" is at fault.
:mad: :mad: :mad:
ok, rant over

(banjo - how many friends d'ya reckon I've made to day then!?) :confused:

Aj.

Re: Visa refused after granted ?
 

:) almost as many as me ;)

Re: Visa refused after granted ?
 

So at least one then? :)

here, have some Karma, and a pint :beer:

Re: Visa refused after granted ?
 

Hey if things carry on the way they are going and so many of us emigrate to Australia the only people left in this country will be the criminals!! :D Mabye we could make the UK a Penial C :eek: olony

Re: Visa refused after granted ?
 

Now that WOULD be karma!! Considering how UK used to treat Oz!

"What goes around, comes around"

Aj.

Re: Visa refused after granted ?
 

Ouch !!! Now who has egg on their face (and it HURT) so much !!!! But enough of this boring subject about Farm Fresh, Organic, Grade A's, the nitty gritty is - from the heart - no I do not condone that kind of behaviour but I could cope with it and far worse so I won't get stressed over a broken yolk and I do not live my life with "what if's" i'd never survive and I have to survive so that I can come on here and wind you up !"+ XXX My apologies if I hit a raw nerve but as this is a site for free speech thought I'd say my piece.

Wikipedia has the answer to that one :)

Origin

For a full discussion of the etymologies of chav and charva, see Wiktionary.
The word chav is commonly thought to be from the mid-19th century Romany words chavi, meaning "delinquent youth", "chavo", meaning child and possibly "charver", meaning prostitute. Following an article in The Independent it has been suggested that it comes from a nickname used for people from various towns in the UK, including Chatham and Cheltenham in conjunction with the class label Average, but this is almost certainly incorrect.
It is sometimes mockingly redefined as one of several backronyms, including "Council Housed And Violent", "Council Housed And Vile", "Council House Assault & Violence", "Council House Associated Vermin", "Council House Adolescent Violence" and "Council House Adidas Victim" — although there is no etymological basis for these terms. (In the large majority of cases, suggested derivations of words from acronyms are erroneous).
It is also said that the word was used in Edinburgh, Scotland, in the early 1990s, leading to widespread bemusement on the part of Edinburghers at the sudden popularity of the term in southeast England. If this is true then this is serious evidence for a Romany origin, since Edinburgh slang includes a significant number of such words, since there used to be a large Romany encampment on the outskirts of the city. However, if it is of Latinate origin, then it may have entered English through Polari.
The slang word chav was used in Chatham during the early 1990s (and possibly earlier than this), as well as the word 'Pikey', to refer to someone who was or had a Traveller appearence. The meaning has changed over the last 10 to 15 years, especially since it has been picked up by the media. People who would have not appreciated being called Chav 10 years ago, now seem to aspire to the label. Chav is no longer synonymous with 'Pikey', but describes a separate subculture.
Faversham is also home to the 'FaverChaver' and is sometimes nicknamed 'Chaversham'.
