Well-meaning hospital staff who say to OH, "Ooh - you'll probably be able to go home tomorrow after physio have seen you" and then he finds out he will probably not be 'released' until at least Wednesday. They should not get his hopes up like that.Comment

Because so much of the Olympics was on the news I watched more than I intended - this isn't the rant. The rant is: We have Ben Ainsley(sp) living in Lymington and the Royal Mail painted a postbox gold in his 'home ' town somewhere else. He has lived in Lymington for 12 years. We now have a gold postbox in Lymington and the painter (albeit an amateur) is to be prosecuted for vandalism. Has the world gone mad? when bankers are involved in fraud, money laundering, and banking for terrorists (Standard Chartered) and goodness knows what else. Visited Lymington this evening and lots of visitors were having their photos taken next to the rogue postbox.A weed is a plant that has mastered every survival skill except for learning how to grow in rowsComment

The Dog has had a 'thing' for the Chooks recently; He has taken to bouncing at the fence, and barking at them, especially if I'm in there, or if he knows I'm going in there. He must have done it again yesterday, when I was indoors, and got 'zapped' by the electric fence, as he came running in with this scared look on his face. This isn't the rant, I'm glad he's been 'zapped' as he will think twice about doing it again. My rant is, the fact that he now won't go down the garden at all! I let him out, and he goes to the end of the house, turns round, and comes back in. He finds me, wherever I am, and lays by my feet. Including if I'm sat on the loo...

Driving up to the roundabout minding my own business when had to brake as the car in the inside lane pulled across me. Looked over and the really stupid person was lighting a cigarette and then swerved back into her own lane.A weed is a plant that has mastered every survival skill except for learning how to grow in rowsComment

When you cancel a meeting, tell everyone instead of making them sit in the Bored Room waiting for something to happen.Granny on the Game in SheffieldComment

When you go to a meeting and half the meeting groans and whinges about someone going on a bit, but then in the finish they all start up and take twice as long. If it's so unimportant then don't join in! And people who think everything they aren't interested in isn't important, and that they are the ones who decide about that. And people who refuse to have an email address or an answering machine, so other people have to drive round there in person to talk to them or leave a hand written note. Don't be so proud of refusing to join us internet people........and stop making US the ones who have to do the running around after you. Ok, sorry just needed that out before the next meeting.Ali

It's not my fault I pick up new systems quicker than you, I know it's frustrating and you feel you're being got at while I'm not. I'm happy to help you, but I'm not about to pretend I don't understand something just to make you feel better.Comment
