Dick Dastardly Posted April 18, 2023 Share Posted April 18, 2023 I remember when i was 5 years old and my dad seemed like a giant, sitting beside me. I can still remember how the engine rattled my bum like berserk. All the while we're singing "Don't forget your shovel if you want to go to work" I could remember thinking that my dad's probably had a bloody hard day but, as always, he's been good fun and bubbling and joking away. And the procession of cars stuck behind are getting all impatient and angry but we don't mind. And we're holding up the bypass, me and my dad having a top laugh.

Konrad von Carstein Posted April 21, 2023 Share Posted April 21, 2023 (edited) Similar but different, was at a Bowie tribute gig at the Usher Hall, 20 minutes in drunken rabble appeared in the seats behind us. Honest to Christ they just used the concert as an extension of whatever pub they had been in, shouting and generally being arseholes. Eventually I turned round and gave them a mouthful (which is most unlike me) they bit back but a couple of folk in the area also started on them, suffice to say they ****ed off pretty soon after. Why would you spend money on a show then turn up pished and proceed to act like an arse and not even watch what you had paid to see?

Dennis Reynolds Posted April 22, 2023 Share Posted April 22, 2023 I don't go to the theatre very often but was at a Paulo Nutini gig recently where a group in front came in about half an hour late absolutely smashed and ended up leaving after about an hour. One of the guys went to the toilet and got lost on the way back so I reckon was in his seat for a good 15 minutes total. They were just chatting the entire time as well. Now, they've paid thier money and can do what they want but it's not like the tickets were cheap so I do find it a bit odd. Few folk seemed a bit cheesed off especially when one of them started toking on a weed vape. Didn't make me want to rush back tbh. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lone Striker Posted April 26, 2023 Share Posted April 26, 2023 Marketing of everyday items - a deliberate ploy to confuse us into buying more versions of the same thing. McCoys crisps now have a "Grab Bag" size, containing a whopping 45g. Thats less than twice the contents of 2 ordinary packets from a multi-pack of 6. 45g sounds similar to what a normal packet of crisps used to contain a few decades ago - when it didn't have a special name, it was just "a packet of crisps". Then you've got toothpaste - gentle whitening, whitening, max white, advanced white, enamel protect, total, cavity protect, max fresh, sensitive. Why can't one tube of toothpaste just do all these things ? Or even just 3 of them in the one tube ? Its surprising that products with a male & female version (e.g. deodorant) haven't started marketing a transgender version. Just for "them". 😉 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JWL Posted April 27, 2023 Share Posted April 27, 2023 The Salad Bar at Morrisons in Gyle Centre. Lunchtime Tuesday and yesterday and they had about 6 or 7 tins lying empty. No spicy chicken pasta, chilli noodles, spicy beef, Italian pasta. Usually enjoy their salad trays but they're asking for £4.00 for the absolute basics. Ram it.
