Cats, fighting in the middle of the night. What a flippin racket they make.
Opens the curtains this morning and one of my nicest tomato pots is on the floor, toms all over the place.
Cat poo, which I didn't see, thank goodness I had my shoes on .......

in particular the mossie that was playing hide and seek in the bedroom last night.

We had a massive Jeff Goldblum sized fly on the ceiling keeping us up last night. Well out of reach.

Dear marketeers - why do you persevere sending faxes through to our company telephone line? And why does the phone ring with a fax when I am on the loo/making coffee/filing archives 2 floors away?

You do so half a dozen times a week despite the number not - obviously - being able to take faxes. Does your system not flag up 'failed sends' which need to be either investigated (checked with a phone call), or the number struck off the list.

In fact, who sends faxes in this day and age anyway??

Idiots!

Stoopid c*w, "Yuk! I hate smoked salmon - it tastes like bacon."
Me, "You don't like bacon!? "
Stoopid c*w, "Oh, yeah, I like bacon."

Nissan Jukes that use gold plated everything..............................You could buy another car for that.

Last week an elderly relative managed to (accidently) mute the ringer on her 'phone. I sorted it out for her. I don't suppose it was too hard to do - an accidental press of a key but today.............how on earth did she manage to change the language on her camera to some eastern European language that uses Cyrillic script??????

Sorted eventually, hard to navigate a menu that is completely indecipherable.

Modern technology should come with an inbuilt optional password protected childlock (geriatric lock/technophobe lock) to protect basic functions from panicky fingers when things go wrong.

^^^^^^^^^^Oi I have fingers like that......

Feeling 'grumpy'! I'll get over it!

You were doing 130kph in a 90 so I'm not sure why you're trying to reach the moral high ground.
Accept the tiny 90€ fine and consider the fact that that you were doing the max speed allowed on a motorway yet were on a country road with cyclists, farm gates, oncoming traffic, junctions, tractors, dogs, bends, children and loads of chickens.

Yes BB, could've bought a new 'un for the cost of the work that's been done on my 'Daisy' Juke. Just to add insult to injury - still waiting for the garage bloke to ring saying it's ready!

Should've said Bigmally! Sorry BB

That not all ancient sayings are right.
What does not kill you makes you stronger - humph thats complete and utter trap!

If the author had my OH health problems and had to deal with him the saying would be.....

What does not kill you makes you stressed, unhappy, pathetic and resigned!
