Aww  I felt so sorry for the mum and angry at the tutters,Made it worse when the poor girl turned around and said sorry to them,she'd nothing to apologise for imo,nothing at all,sad state of affairs that that pair of gits made her feel she had.

Oh - that annoys the hell out of me.   I have a four slice toaster and toast three slices when I want two and chuck 3 untoasted thirds of slices in the bin.   (I'm a bit OCD about even toast amongst other things...)

I loved this letter

 

SOMETHING LIGHT AND AMUSING!

A  SENIOR MOMENT - I HOPE I HAVE THEM LIKE THIS

A 98 year old woman in the UK  wrote this to her bank. The bank manager thought it amusing enough to have  it published in the Times.

Dear Sir,

I am writing to thank you for bouncing my cheque  with which I endeavoured to pay my plumber last month. By my calculations, three
'nanoseconds' must have elapsed between his presenting the cheque and the arrival in my account of the funds needed to honour it. I refer, of course, to the automatic monthly deposit of my Pension, an arrangement, which, I admit, has been in place for only thirty eight years. You are to be commended for seizing that brief window of opportunity, and also for  debiting my account ÂĢ30 by way of penalty for the inconvenience caused to  your bank.

My thankfulness springs from the manner in which this incident has caused me to rethink my  errant financial ways. I noticed that whereas I personally attend to your telephone calls and letters, when I try to contact you, I am confronted by the impersonal, overcharging, pre-recorded, faceless entity which your bank has become. From now on, I, like you, choose only to deal with a flesh-and-blood person.

My  mortgage and loan payments will therefore and hereafter no longer be automatic, but will arrive at your bank by cheque, addressed personally  and confidentially to an employee at your bank whom you must nominate. Be  aware that it is an offence under the Postal Act for any other person to open such an envelope. Please find attached an Application Contact Status  which I require your chosen employee to complete. I am sorry it runs to  eight pages, but in order that I know as much about him or her as your  bank knows about me, there is no alternative. Please note that all copies of his or her medical history must be countersigned by a Solicitor, and  the mandatory details of his/her financial situation (income, debts,  assets and liabilities) must be accompanied by documented  proof.

In due course, I will issue your employee with PIN number which he/she must quote in dealings  with me. I regret that it cannot be shorter than 28 digits but, again, I  have modelled it on the number of button presses required of me to access  my account balance on your phone bank service. As they say, imitation is the sincerest form of flattery.

Let me level the playing field even further. When you call me, press buttons as follows:
1 - To make an appointment to see  me.
2 - To query a missing  payment.
3 - To transfer the call  to my living room in case I am there.
4 - To transfer the call to my bedroom in case I am sleeping.
5 - To transfer the call  to my toilet in case I am attending to nature.
6 - To transfer the call to my mobile phone if I am not at home.
7 - To leave a message on my computer (a password to access my
      computer is required. A password will be communicated to you at a later date
      to the Authorized Contact.)
8 - To return to the main menu and to listen to options 1 through to 8.
9 - To make a general complaint or inquiry, the contact will then be put on
      hold, pending the attention of my automated answering service.

While this may, on occasion, involve a lengthy wait, uplifting music will play for the duration of the call.

Regrettably, but again  following your example, I must also levy an establishment fee to cover the  setting up of this new arrangement.

May I wish you a happy, if ever so slightly less prosperous, New Year.

Your Humble Client




(Remember: This was written by a 98 year old  woman; DOESN'T SHE MAKE YOU  PROUD!)

I've been waiting all day for something my daughter ordered. It hasn't arrived - the time given was anytime between seven and seven. Glad I suggested it was delivered here rather than wait in at her house. Actually this is the second time - last time they delivered it, it was broken - I also waited for them to collect. it's a good job I don't have much of a life

BGT was the worst for AD breaks on Saturday night, apparently it was something like ÂĢ120,000 for a 3min ad but did we really need them after every act

It's more that they get a break in the middle of one hours work (I know there's more goes on before they start). I don't know any other job that gets that. 

 

The ad breaks annoyed me too but were quite handy for toilet breaks

Oh deffo, do that now, then she'll know who's using it all  

I asked her to buy me a new liquid eyeliner while she was in town, couple of days later she's sitting next to me while i was using the *new* one and said it seem's empty and she said *oh i kept the new one and gave you my old one*

 

and then she buys me a new top and says *this is for you but we will share it*
