The New Minor Rant thread....

Chasing the Heron .......................it was in the bladdy pond...........................There is so much netting, 2 Decoy Herons, CD's hanging all over, string wrapped round the pond.................I'm gonna call it Houdini.

[Jay22]

Is fine wire mesh on the pond not an option BM? On second thoughts, probably not. I guess the weight of the heron would be too much!

Rant....Houdini Herons!

It's a bit awkward Jay as it's circular with a small island. I feel quite sad & angry watching this now..............

I CANNOT FIND THE CORKSCREW arggggggggg where did i leave it last night

[mothhawk]

I could use every expletive going! Unless they are in hiding in the bottom leaves, it looks like the Heron has cleared out the pond, over 50 fish. The only one I can see is George the 18 year old Koi....................

It may be nature but sometimes nature sucks.................

It does stuck sometimes indeed. You can't help but wonder why the person taking the photo would stop it but then again there would not be a pay check involved.

The same reason David Attenborough doesn't stop the lion killing the antelope fawn. Predators kill to eat.

My rant - sometimes nature is too cruel...

[Bill HH]

Took the lad we foster (with learning disabilities) to a shop that sells mobile phones. He excitedly chose one which on contract was £27 a month.After half an hour filling in contracts and stuff the computer rejected him because of his credit rating. That is because he has never owed anyone a penny in his life, never had a credit card and is totaly reliable. So to get credit nowadays you have to prove you owe money left right and centre. He was gutted as was I for him.
In the end the salesman tried several service providers, explaining that some have different criteria to others. After 4 goes he got accepted by O2 but it shouldn't have come to that.

[Bigmallly]

That is so often the case Bill, companies like customers that can get into debt, they don't want you to pay on time, that's how they make their money. However that normally applies to HP not phone contracts as they are normally DD. Glad he got sorted in the end.............

The person who has hit my dads car and drove off. Don't know when it was done but was picked up on his MOT. The mechanic couldn't understand why the car light wouldn't line up properly so he underneath the car and found the damage. So my dad needs a new head light unit.
So thanks very much who ever you are firstly my dad has to fork out for a new light unit, he is still getting his ear chewed off by my mom and I had my ear chewed off about it last night.

Who rings before 7:30 in the morning, i am still worrying about who it was and why. you could have atleast managed a voicemail.

[Jay22]

I'm sure if it had been urgent or important they would have left a message Lisa...probably just cold callers.

Rant...cold callers!
