Xmas full stop.

But yes, fully agree. I understand some stores have already got "Christmas shops" set-up and trading.

of course i am...grand wizard

I always liked the sound of Imperial Kludd. 

Chuggers

But not for the reason you might think.

I always seem to attract the beardy bloke with St Vitus Dance instead of the attractive female.

So that's the MOT, Service, tyre, air con and ball joint and brake pads.

That will be £499 total.

Me, "Right, so if I don't take it elsewhere and let you do all that work today what kind of deal can you do?"

That'll be £450

See what I did - you do the same, ok

I just knocked £10 off my broadband and phone line. Quite easy if you are prepared to ask.

I've just seen a telephone table online but it's £71 and I know I got some tax back but........

How do I get money off that?  

Telephone table?

Is that not self explanatory?

Oooh nice one EC and Saint 

Oh never realised they were still around

I have to say it, students!

They are back in town and don't we know it. My very early walk to the bus in the morning is punctuated by discarded fast food packaging, chips and chicken carcasses peppering the footpath, pools of vomit in doorways, kerbsides and slap bang in the middle of the footpaths.

Finally they think it really good fun to throw used bottles and cans in the two fountains we have along with washing up liquid that creates a right old mess along with cost of cleaning the water up.

Education - great innit.

and not a pigs head in sight 

I have to say....I don't miss the Metro trains being full of them at 8.00-8.30 in the morning 

"Solutions"  

We don't have 'Office furniture' we have Office "solutions"

We don't have drainage work we have,

"We serve all your drainage solutions"

Honest to God ! ! ! ! !   *fumes*

If that's the only thing that gets you hot under the collar then maybe you need to rethink your priorities  

annoying innit 

Silly sausage - look at this thread - it's filled with my annoyances

Yeah, but there's annoyances and there's annoyances  

modern day annoyances Pam...

Maybe that is a modern day annoyance, but it's way down on my list  

mention one Pam

but the thread is modern day annoyances  

I might have mentioned it before, It's people not actually getting out of my way when I'm out and about 

People standing in shop doorways to put their change back in their purse/bags and stuff like that. Oh and, people trying to get on public transport before others have a chance to get off 

Children who stare

Men with cats

People who say they are 'passionate' about anything

Foods reducing in size but prices going up

Drama queen media reporting

Ugg boots

No more white eggs

I'll give you that one too, although I always stare back....it puts them off big time  

AND HERE WE GO

My friend works for this company

What is a family butcher?

Apparently Morrisons has one in each shop !!

England teans that flatter to deceive...

Patrick Kielty - I just don't get this fella and why he is on our screens. Although he purports to be a comedian he just seems to turn up on the odd show and be bland.

As if by magic he is on Sunday Brunch. Beer tasting and to get a head on his beer he decided to take another glass, hit the rim of one glass with the base of another, partially breaking the glass of the one he is to drink from.

What a dick, he even drinks from the broken glass!

He was awful on Love Island - years ago

Unfunny and sneering at the show he was on!!

 . . .and while I'm on

Kenny lynch - always seemed to hang around, no idea why he's famous, just seemed to 'be' around.

May be a nice guy - but he's like Rod stewart, around but not doing anything

When Bruce Banner turns into the Hulk, why oh why does everything but his trouser fall off.

Now don't get me wrong, I'm not hankering for a peek at the Hulk's danglies, I'm just confused as to why post transformation they are still intact given the enormous size he has grown to.

  I always used to wonder that too

The person in front of me who was more interested in having a phone conversation than ordering or listening to the person taking his order.

It took all my strength not to rip the phone out of his hand and drop it into a hot steaming Americano!!!!

Show the girl serving you some respect.

We just had an "Emergency Response Unit" in our street.

Whatever happened to "Fire Engine" ??

"it" was probably out somewhere else 

"Mummy, when I grow up I want to be an Emergency Response Unit person"

In TESCO they have a "Fruit and Veg Team" - it's on the back of their polo shirts
