Minor Rant Thread - Part 8

[VirginVegGrower]

I'm on two cetirizine or whatever it's called. I've tried two others and only these are damping it enough. Horrendous.

[julesapple]

I had a Kenalog jab a fortnight ago. I'm allowed two in a year, if I really do need them. They're steroidal so you do have to be desperate. If the hay fever is really bad I can become asthmatic and that stops me from being able to take care of my cripple, so the doctor does relent then but you have to lean on them.

Rant: Sons who complain they haven't had supper before they go off to evening college. You're a clever chap, you can get your own soup out of the pan. It's called a ladle.......

[cptncrackoff]

double rant, actually make that triple!

1. Hayfever - yes me too, this year...awful!
2. For some reason this year the citrizine is making me really sleepy... the same pills every year.

And saving the best for last......

Ear infections, both ears, again!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

just hoping to be hit over the head with a shovel!

Oh I love a good rant, Im always on the rant every day Im on bout summit or nothing, lately its been on how greedy some people are!

I grew up on an estate and for all they have their down sides I found people were willing to help out and share if you wanted out, I know I would give anyone anything if they asked. I moved over here in sort of a town meets village area and I thought people would have been more friendly etc etc. No! thought wrong! I asked a old guy I know if I could have 2 of the 70 pallets he has, he turned me down flat! I know I shouldnt just expect but for god sake!!! I must say I was stunned! I came home and had a right row with myself although it was ment to be a vent off at the bf I ended up answering myself to as he wasnt quick enough!

I was saying to the bf even if I just had 4 I would of gave him 2 if he asked for any the greeeeeeedy git the bf agreed lol. Well needless to say I wont hold this against him and will share my finds with him as he owns the allotment over the road so loads will come in handy xx

Went for a shower this morning. Enjoying the lovely hot water when all of a sudden there's a pop! Something hit the shower cubicle and manky water starts squirting out of the bathroom radiator - oddly it was turned off but hot - and there's water all over the floor. The shower by this time is freezing as the pressure has gone. The boiler is making funny noises and I'm alone and nekkid.

Turn off water, boiler, gas and electricity just to be safe. Then realise I have to use my mobile to phone the plumber - still nekkid, still partially soapy. Thankful I hadn't started on my hair.

Plumber is now here, turned off the gas and water but turned on the power. He's now making very expensive noises over many cups of tea. Definitely a new radiator in the bathroom, he's still debating boiler parts with himself.

On top of all this, a letter demanding we now pay £300 per month for gas & electricity. That's a £50 increase. Lovely. Phone them up to complain and find that we are in credit by a HUGE amount, so I ask for it back. They say they cannot do that, I say differently but am getting nowhere talking to the kid on the phone. I will consult the Citizen's Advice Bureau expert when he phones home later!

Well cheesed off and out of sorts now. And I can't reach the BH to ask him to come home and hug me.

Now your know why I am a plumber, Nekkid ladies with a problem, Yes madam we will be there immediately.

Potty.

On the plumbing rant. The heating in my new house is having to be fettled because its oil fired. Because it was a stables before the only hot water was provided by a dinky little boiler fitted to the water pipes upstairs in the stable boys dorms. Plumber says the oil fired thingy cant do central heating and ive got to have some kind of water cylinder like an immersion heater unless I have a combi boiler installed.
All too confusing for me. And its working out a bit expensive too so I am re-using the radiators from the main house. Just going to clean them up because there is nothing wrong with them and they suit my house much better than modern ones.

I wish it was all sorted!

Bl00dy kids - so at 16:27 the day before you want a tuxedo for the next day school leavers party. In my day it was flour and eggs. Now we've got to have some pseudo American cr@p. Am I angry? No I'm seething.

[Dotty Sarah]

Dear boss, if it's 30 mins after I should have had my break don't tell me that you'll be over shortly if actually you're going to wait 1 1/2 hrs before finding some else to do it. Either turn up shortly or tell me there's a problem so I can make other arrangements and not get so cross that I end up being rude to customers after 6 hrs in a stuffy room on my own

No, it wasn't you Jules. The perpetrator is not aware of my rage.







Yet.






But he will be. He will be.
