Aaaaargh, b*****ding "energy saving experts" on the radio telling us to "turn the thermostat down" "dont leave the telly on standby" "reduce your shower time" to save £20, ffs..................

w**k

Be interesting to do a cost analysis of the extra hot water for a w**k in the shower vs the bog roll (and potentially laundry) of outside it.

I have done a @Shandon Par

Bought a bottle of wine last week. Went to open it last night to find it had a cork in it instead of a screwtop. I didn't have a corkscrew, so put it back. 

Went to the shop today and got a corkscrew. It was attached to a piece of card by those zip tie things. Cutting the zip ties with a knife, I managed to stab myself in the stomach with the tip of the corkscrew. Drew blood and it feels like someone has punched me in the guts. 

I should stick to beer

You’re never safe. A fiend and I clinked our bottles of Newcastle Brown one night (we were about 16) and a corner of my bottle fell out. To avoid waste I put the broken corner in my mouth and drank the beer from the broken bit. The expression of the ladies we were chatting to turned from amusement to horror as the blood poured from my face.

This confirms that you did attend St. Andrews University.

I was doing nail gun safety training yesterday.
 
"Now boys and girls, carry the tool by the handle, not like this by the airline, not like this by the nose, not like this by the AIYAHBASTURD!!!!"
 
Blood all uber der platz as I ripped a finger on a nail. Cue much hilarity.

Need to work on your technique.

It was actually shared by a Man Utd fan with the caption “class from Spurs” just f**k off with these love ins/standing with people in solidarity shite.

Be fair, he probably lives close to New White Hart Lane.

Just about every pavement in Inverness has the same but they were in a right state before. It actually makes it a bit smoother for pushing a wheel chair, on two of the wheels anyway. 

Just realised that we got a flyer in about it in advance. At least they were realistic about how sh*te it would look.

We got no notice at all, woke up to find a ditch at the end of drive, they had to drop a ramp down so I could get the car out.

Wife had a call from the doctor on Wednesday. Her hand is acting up again (she broke her thumb in a motorbike accident about 20 years ago and it never healed properly). She had a couple of other things too. The doc said she would prescribe an anti-inflammatory gel. 

Pick up the prescription today (2 days for a prescription FFS) and there is no gel. Phoned the pharmacy - there was no gel on the prescription. Phoned the surgery - no mention of it in the notes. 

I heard half the conversation and it was mostly about this hand. Now waiting on the surgery phoning back (on a Friday afternoon) to see what they can do.

I blame these scripted reality shows and the bimbos that appear on them for starting this irritating trend.

I watched a thing with that Smith Rowe boy at Arsenal this afternoon. Infuriating.
