Nice one! Will get on that pronto. Thank you very much!

No probs. If you are still waiting in a few weeks time then PM me and I can try and hurry it up. I’ve had to send loads of emails to Lothian valuation joint board the last few months. They do seem to be quite a bit behind.

It's the same with dried pasta.  The plastic most makers use just rips when you try to open it. It's not to bad if you're using a good bit of the pack, but what do you do when you've just used a little and the bags ripped halfway down?  The tiny bit of semi-sticky tape a lot of packs have for resealing is useless.

Thick celebrities. Watched that House of Games thing with Richard Osman a couple of times this week............jesus. How can 3 out of 4 of these so called celebrities not know the capital of Australia. There was a celebrity mastermind on recently and this tv presenter, can't remember the lassies name Scarlett or something, knew absolutely feck all. Just basic general knowledge. Maybe it's just me being a grumpy auld git.

Thought about this post earlier on as I opened a packet of arborio rice with ease and resealed it using the sticky bit provided. 
Then as I smugly put it in the cupboard I managed to knock over a bag of previously opened basmati and spill most of it all over the floor.

Think I have a neighbour seething at me about bins.

I often forget to bring it back after collection as its left where I cant see it so I genuinely forget...sometimes for 3 or 4 days.

Often now when this happens I come out to find a bag of rubbish has been put in it. Never bothered me but end of last year I  tore open the bag and it had their junk mail with address so next time they did it I left the bag on their step.

Our flat is up for sale but obviously things have gone really quiet with lockdown. Then Thursday lunchtime we get an alert that someone has put in a note of interest. 
 

Estate agent gets a hold of the person on Friday and turns out the silly cow can’t even remember which flat ours was and had seemingly been using notes of interest instead of saving properties on espc/Zoopla etc and had had an offer accepted on another property but was continuing to place notes of interest in case it falls through.

Ambulance parked in street with hazards on. Now, obviously attending somewhere, but some fud has just parked on the opposite side next to ambulance, blocking the street. Folk pulling up behind and beeping their horns to move. Arseholes for parking opposite an ambulance in the first place, no need and extra arseholes for beeping to them to move!!! 

Although, making for some great entertainment at the time folk are sitting before either beeping or turning back.

Pedestrians. I get it. The pavements are covered in snow and some of the roads have been cleared (ish), thereby making your wee journey a bit safer. We'll, guess what!? Cars also have to still use the same road and due to the snow, whole you continue along the road and think "I'm no moving, he can". Its not that simple. An inch of movement may be enough to cause a loss of control and basically twat you. So, rough it on the pavement or I'll get the green cross code man to ****ing haunt you!

Facebook Name and Shame shit. 

 

For example, some bint posted a picture of a guy along the lines of "this ANIMAL kicked my poor little woofikins! He was only running round him barking with a ball in his mouth! I've spent months with this dog, rescued him from a bad home and now this! The man said he was scared by the dog but that's no excuse! You wouldn't kick a child if it scared you and these dogs are our CHILDREN!"

 

No mention of how big the ****ing dog was. No idea if the guy has been traumitised by dogs in the past. And the "you wouldn't kick a child....", completely missing the fact that dogs are a hell of a lot more dangerous than a ****ing child. 

 

Don't get me wrong, I love dogs, but this kind of shit really, really bugs me.

Some idiot had her husky off the lead here yesterday and it ran off without her noticing. Kept jumping up on people (just a friendly dog) but we had our baby in the pram. It came to jump up and I pushed it away from the pram. It tried again so got a smack on the nose from the missus. Ran off to the next person.

It's just one sided pish. I see some person raised the issue I had and was told anyone who is that scared of dogs shouldn't be on the street. Away tae ****!

There’s a new generation and type  of dog owners who seem to be particularly annoying. In the past couple of years I’ve had idiots going in the huff as they can’t bring their dog to work, and not accepting some people have allergies or are scared of them. Our finance manager was attacked by a dog when she was a kid and is terrified of all dogs no matter their size. People with dogs in their wedding photos, people turning up at a funeral with their dogs, and a friend trying to get the venue for a 40th birthday party moved to another pub as the one chosen didn’t allow dogs in. 
And as for the husky incident that’s just ridiculous, I only know two things about huskies, they aren’t the brightest, and they are well known for bolting if they are off the lead. A friend of a friend has one and more than once been on Facebook asking if anyone has seen it. The same woman who’s kids depend on the charity of my mate to give them proper meals on occasion and top up her electric as she’s constantly out of money. So why did she accept the offer of a free dog, free as the previous owner found it too expensive to look after?

A few weeks ago I had mine out for a walk and we had to pass a huskie on a relatively tight path. This thing was properly going for mine and the guy walking it could barely control it. Luckily both were on leads otherwise mine might have bolted off in fear. She is a woose from being attacked from a bigger dog before* and screamed until I picked her up. The guy walking the huskie must have known it wasn't great with small dogs so could have given a wee warning.

 

*On this occasion the woman walking the dog started panicking as soon as we walked towards them, telling her dog to be good etc. Then without mine doing anything it went for her and she absolutely shat it, screamed her head off for a few minutes, had a bloody mouth and a bloodshot eye. Then the woman advises that hers isn't good with puppies. Why have it off the lead if you know it is liable to attack?
