Ad Block Plus has worked wonders for me. There is a thread about all these adds it might be worth you having a mooch at it.

Why oh why have I done it again???

I've been pretty lazy with the sowing again this year, I put it down to working a lot and the weather around here was pretty dire until April so I've not really bothered to sow anything. About a fortnight ago I realised that I was going to have nothing come summer so better get my finger out. I couldn't be bothered to label everything so didn't. Now I'm regretting it, is it a cucumber, a gherkin, a squash?

Silly girl

I hate losing anything, and I hate losing seeds. Today I remembered that I had a packet of Razmatazz chilli seeds that I'd been keeping for a rainy day. Where are they???

Dear Dress Manufacturers,
I am looking for a dress for a couple of family parties this summer. I do not want to be swathed in synthetic fabrics as I can't wear them. Is cotton not an option for summer?

Bras!!! How on earth can two bras of the same design, colour and size be a different size? Omg! I bought one, loved it, bought two more, they are from the same shop, same rack, same manufacturer, same size and colour and they are too flipping small, how? I wish bra manufacturers would sort themselves out, surely I am not the only woman with this stupidly annoying problem.

Ignorant/rude people.

I've always considered myself a polite person, and now after 10 years of working in a job where I'm face to face with the general public I am extremely polite because I realise my job depends on it.

So it annoys me that only recently I've discovered how many rude people I know. There's a girl who lives in my street who I no longer speak to cos everytime I saw her she'd say hello, to which I'd give my usual reply of hello, you alright? And her response every time was just 'yes'. Not yes I'm fine thanks for asking, how are you? My mam is another one who, when people ask her 'how are you?', she replies 'fine'. I find it so ignorant and it embarrasses the life out of me when it's someone I know, ie from work etc, asking her. Another girl I've known for years was at the bus stop this morning, I said morning you alright? Yeah was all I got back.

Am I asking too much for an answer of at least, yes, how are you??? Clearly.

Rant over

[greenishfing]

The allotment behind me was given up this year and taken over just over a month ago. He appeared the first week and dug over about ¾ of one bed, never to be since. His dandelions are in full flower (and guess which way the prevailing wind blows) his bindweed is trying to invade me. No doubt I will have to put up with this ****** for the next year until he doesn't pay his rent.

So unfair!!!!!

Newbies should have a short probationary period and be booted off quickly if they don't stop the weeds. And "oldies" as well when I think about it.

Lets not discriminate.

Folks who like to wander onto to other people's plots and also let their littlies wander over other people's plots, allotments are not the safest places, I look round and there is a little 2 year old behind me!

These are people who are actually digging the plot for someone else, so won't have read the tenancy agreement, so maybe don't know, it's just not what you do, and I don't want to say anything for fear of upsetting them, cos they are at least cultivating the plot!

Realising that at 68 I have no clout whatsoever. I have to ask my 31 year old son to resolve a neighbour problem because the neighbour thinks he can do exactly as he pleases. The only way I could have dealt with it would have been to involve courts and that involves money. My son had a word (non violent) and was listened to. I just feel impotent.

I used to be the troubleshooter for one of the major companies in the world and I find this very hard to cope with.
