Minor Rant Thread - Part 9

[Glutton4...]

Ants! Specifically the boogers that've built a nest in the lounge fireplace! Just had to light a ruddy fire - in these temperatures!!!

[binley100]

Chuffin' caterpillars ........that's all my overwintering bras stripped

hoping against all hope that they will recover, PSB, Caulis, Cavalo Nero and January king cabbages

I like my managers, really I do, but I do wonder how a particular one has got to where she is when she rings up to ask me (sat in the north west) which Tube she should catch to get from Euston to one of our Central London office locations (she knows the nearest Tube station name) - erm, there are huge big maps all over the Tube - just look at one of those!!

(Northern, then Circle if anyone is interested)

two today........

Hi here's your new plot, we've ploughed it for you . Don't worry about docks/marestail etc being spread around because we've sprayed it with poison as well........

fed up with having the same old argument.......ffs if people want to poison their growing space then let them do that for themselves

and number two .......Coughton Court

It's pronounced Coton court (o as in hello) not coffton court ......stop telling me different I've spoken to them on the phone and you haven't. I should think those that work there should know.........

[Florence Fennel]

No, Mr Nosy Neighbour, who has probably never grown a thing in his life, don't tell my son my tomatoes have got blight. As I told your very red face, because you didn't realise I was in the doorway, one or two of the plants have got blossom end rot, but not blight. Grrrrrr.

[Glutton4...]

Horseflies.
Thrips.
Mosquitos.
Ants.

LEAVE ME ALONE FFS!

[Mozer242]

Downhill mountain bikers racing down single track country lanes & whoever said the customer is always right........idiots on both counts

\finally sit down to enjoy a glass of van rosy. Read a bit on here, then turn to pick up my glass and there are three thunder flies and a little moth having swimming lessons. I have dried the moth out, but I couldn't do anything for the tiny thunderflies.

And there was the BIGGEST spider you have ever seen in my kitchen. Even the cat ran away...

[Glutton4...]

People who post very upsetting images and videos on social network sites. Yes, we all know it happens, and most of us are against it, but that doesn't mean we want to actually SEE it!

[OverWyreGrower]

The exhaust has fallen off my car. That is all.

[binley100]

Don't tell us the Secretary put a limit of 50 on tickets........He may be away but still goes on FB and you forget I have the power of FB messaging .

Spending well over an hour pulling out every bale of fabric we have for a quilter to choose something to go with a cream fabric she already had. Something floral, she said. Forty three bales of fabric on the cutting table, in complete disarray because she's unwinding everything, and she says 'Do you now, I think I'll go for a coffee now. I might come back later' Took me an age to put everything back, too, and it wasn't fair on other customers who then couldn't see our range properly displayed.

Five minutes to five and she walks through the door. I told her 'I'm sorry but we close at 5pm so you haven't got very long' to which she replied 'You can close when I decide to leave and not before!' At this point my 6ft2 husband came out from the stockroom, smiled at her grimly, and she decided to leave right then.

I love helping people, but some people take the biscuit.

Neighbour shooting things from his balcony. It may be 75m away but it is loud and alarming.

[Nicos]

Flippin birds what munch their way through our black cherries...and then decide to poop all over our white cotton sheets

hmmmph...not a happy bunny
