Hitting a patch of diesel on a roundabout when I'm on my motorbike. Clenching moment, but we stayed shiny side up

A son who phones you at work to ask where his school tie is even though you've been nagging him for the last week to sort his school stuff out.

Both Sons who were told on Sunday that they need to get their dirty rugby kits off their bedroom floors if they want it washed. This morning "mum, where's our rugby kit" on the floor boys...."what????!!!!! It's not washed?"

Nope

People who are happy to take eggs, but not leave any money. Twice again this week I have put out four boxes, and received money for three. This has happened in the last few weeks, and for a few weeks once before, and I kept my cool for a couple of months before leaving a note. The note was greeted with sarcasm.

One rude female, who wouldn't speak to me directly, but said loudly enough for me to hear, that they had put money in the pot once when there were no eggs!! Really!!? Why didn't she either, take the money back out, or knock on the door!?

I don't know what the going rate is for free-range organic eggs in the shops. But if they aren't prepared to pay £1 for six of them here, they can P$$$$$$$ right off!

As if it wasn't bad enough that my husband. who caught a cold last weekend, coughed and sneezed all over me until I caught it. Now I've got upset stomach ache and "the runs" as well.

MISERABLE!!!!!!

Got a note from school. Now little boy needs a pair of trainers for PE as well as his black pumps.
Are they taking the mick?
Do they think I have any money left after buying two lots of school uniform this year?
Suppose I'll spend part of my weekend trying to find a pair for him

That made me smile, I think down here, they have 'races', you should see the speed they go! And then they just kind of 'cross the road' after the lights have changed!

Can't wait to get one!

Last weekend, I gave about half a dozen, well grown and established blackcurrants to young couple with new plot this year. Said don't plant closely at least 3/4 ft, and water in well. Just been up there this morning, they've planted them about 12 inches apart, and they are wilting due to lack of water! Grrr
