jonnothejambo Posted March 19 Daughter home after a 12 hour shift as an intensive care nurse only to find the arsehole neighbours have chosen today to get their garden cleared of all trees and bushes. Feckin chainsaws, trimmers etc going like the clappers. What a racket. Feckin twats. Plus they are vermin tramps. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
IronJambo Posted March 19 1 hour ago, Harry Potter said: Pests, bet you love them, 🙂. Yep. I love people that shave on my sofa and in the hall. I love people that seem to be able to make the biggest mess possible. I love pishy jugs being left inmy spare room. I love old lady tights hanging on the towel radiator in the family bathroom. I love that the most inane crap is constantly on the TV and that anything with a swear word or the slightest bit of nudity will offend someone. I love that they're here under the pretence of helping my Mrs with our newborn when actually they need constant care themselves. I love wet tea bags everywhere. I love that they can't use the buttons for the TV except for when it suits them. I love that dinner every night is some form of overcooked meat with gravy and potatoes. Driving them to the train station in 5 minutes. I love that he doesn't have a backbone. I'm driving them to the train station in 5 minutes, it's going to be a momentous moment when I drive out the car park. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Haven't seen anything like this since the fuel crisis. I know, I'm just about to head up town for our weekly shop. Tesco do and hour, 9 to 10, 3 days a week for the elderly and vulnerable, problem being shop is open for 3 hours prior to this so the shelves are bare. Apparently have a session on sundays for NHS staff? Not up here in stornoway, how dare they open a shop on the sabbath. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Marvin Posted March 21 Back from Sainsbury's and queued for half an hour to be allowed in by a spotty 16 year old, only to discover the shelves are bare. There was an older lady in tears because she was unable to buy the bare essentials. The store was as busy as it was during Xmas period. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Salad Fingers Posted March 23 Some daft bint right up my arse almost all the way to work this morning. What annoyed me the most is that we had miles and miles of national speed limit road in which she could overtake but continued up my arse. I was early so was in no rush to get to work. The funny thing though is she waited until a 50mph bit of bendy road to overtake, her intention to obviously overtake me and the bus in front but as we were approaching a tight turn, she immediately sandwiched herself in between me and the bus where she stayed until I got to work. Total waste of her time the arsehole. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

iantjambo Posted March 27 Having to nip to Tesco, so go outside and find my back tyre completely flat. I could’ve wept! My own fault, I’ve had a slow puncture for a few weeks and kept putting off getting it repaired and was just putting air in whenever it needed it. It only took 10 minutes to change but it’s a lesson learned. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ribble Posted March 27 Nipped to tesco for Milk this morning, shop was pretty much dead with 2-3 other customers in, I've been served at the till by a guy wearing marigolds and as I turn to leave almost bump into the old codger stood right behind me. Stupid old coot had the nerve to berate me as 'I am wearing glasses and should effing well be able to see where i'm going' took all my powers of restraint not to have a right go back at him, one the glasses to point behind me and secondly he shouldn't have been so bloody close in the first place!

IronJambo Posted March 27 Got an email from the boys after-school club telling us how great they've been doing since they closed and that most of their staff are on furloe now. They have a centre ready to open for kids of key workers and are just going to work out what fees they want to charge us for next month. We're not treated as key workers (even though I am) at the boys school so he's not there or at after school club just now. We already paid for two weeks worth of care that he never had and that hasn't even been acknowledged. They can suck my hoop if they think I'm going to be paying them a fee for not having my kid.
