Pistonheaders and their First World Problems.
Discussion
on a similar note, whilst on our European Tour last year, one of our travelling companions was heard to remark, "Dahling, there's foie gras on the iPad!"
I remain convinced that they would have had less mess on their electronic plate had they been using our silver cutlery rather than their ersatz plastic rubbish.
Personally, I only eat my dinner off a MacBook Pro - the matt surface keeps the gravy from running off.

Will my travails never end? Not for the first time I didn't have enough milk for my 3 Weetabix, so had to settle for 2. However, now I am going to be left with a solitary Weetabix at the end of the box and I am not sure how to proceed when I get to it. Do I?
- Throw it away
- Eat it on its own
- Take 2 Weetabix from the next box to make up the numbers( merely moving the problem down the line)
- Switch to mini Weetabix
The inlaws arrived to stay with us for a few weeks last Saturday. Having accepted my offer of a cup of tea after their long flight, I had to ask the maid if we had any sugar or tea bags, as I had no idea where these things were kept.
Why my wife could not have done this is way, way beyond my comprehension. FML.

Forgive my ignorance in such matters, but isn't it the job of the Under-Butler to speak to the maid?Why my wife could not have done this is way, way beyond my comprehension. FML.
Not me this time but I know a chap who is finding his feet after being widowed last year. He and his wife had an apartment in London with a rather bashed up Ford Focus and a house in the country with a cossetted Jaguar saloon. If they were in the country, they could drive to town in the Jaguar. If they were in town, they could drive to the country in the Focus. If one was in one place and the other in the other place, there was always a car available. Now on his own, he has achieved a long standing ambition and bought a Bentley S3, circa 1963. It's a disaster. Where to keep the Bentley? The system worked up over so many years only works with even numbers. Now he has an even number of properties and an odd number of cars, the system fails. He keeps finding himself in the wrong place with the wrong car.
He'll have to buy a house at the sea. It's the only answer.

Or you could get off your arse and go and get more milk then you could have the three. Sorry, couldn't resist that one!! - Throw it away
- Eat it on its own
- Take 2 Weetabix from the next box to make up the numbers( merely moving the problem down the line)
- Switch to mini Weetabix

I'm looking at buying a third car, but I can only fit 2 behind the gate on the driveway. Looks like I'll have to sacrifice one to be parked on the outside.

k me, do you live in one of those "council houses" I hear about. I thought you had to have at least a 3-car drive to be on Pistonheads.I'll keep my eye out for you when the new series of "Benefit Street" starts
I'm actually upset you have to live in conditions like that - we should have a whip round.

Also, surely you keep one's car in a mews at the end of a driveway not actually on it?
