Shortly going out for lunch and many drinks, with some good friends. This enables me to keep my place empty as the cleaners are coming. However, my usual driver is on vacation, so I will have to take a taxi.

Was getting out of my first car into my second car and dropped my iPhone 6 into the door shut and slammed the door on it.

Screen is still half working but I have to use Siri for everything until my new on arrives.

The output of the ice maker on my outrageously expensive (Murcielago clutch expensive) new Gaggenau fridge freezer is disappointing low. Just enough ice for a couple of Jack and Coke's in 24 hours. Should have bought a cheaper fridge and another new clutch instead. How tiresome.

You are a terrible parent to have exposed him to it in the first place. Is his name Crispian?

The battery is failing on the remote control for my TV which means I have to hold it nearer the TV to make it work. Sometimes I actually have to get out of my chair and press the button on the TV to make it work! FFS! Why can't they make these things last, the TV is only 5 years old! For weeks now I've had to deal with the trauma of knowing that at some point I'm going to have to buy a new battery.

This morning I decided to make some toast. When I went to the cupboard to get the jam, the label hit me right between the eyes...'Hartley's NO BITS strawberry jam'. Some poor little spud in the third world has no food for a week and we've got whinging little fkers who say to mum 'there's bits in my jam/marmalade, pickle'. Snivelling, ungrateful, spoilt little bds. My daughter will be one of them, or we'd have normal jam in the cupboard with, and get this, bits of strawberry in it!Shock, horror...'BITS OF STRAWBERRY IN STRAWBERRY JAM. WHAT THE fk'S THAT DOING IN THERE'!!!

Foul! that's not a suitable solution for this thread - now delete and pop it where it belongs in the "a bit council" thread. I've despatched my man with his spanking paddle to "sort you out".laugh

Not knowing where the letter opener is kept I obtained a rather severe paper cut whilst opening my mail.

Not for the first time, yesterday I was harvesting potatoes and got home to find I had no potatoes for my tea. Arse.

I am never trusting public transport ever again, how the fk does a bus driver have to stop for 45 minutes after driving the total of 50 miles.

Still my free £5 voucher to spend at the airport was great, I felt like id won the weakest link. Its amazing how little you can get for a fiver at the airport.

Crap plane I think. My Gulfstream has the 'infotainment' thing you mention: I've had a pole installed as well so the stewardess can entertain melick

If American had installed similar on this flight they would have run out of sick bags. I've never seen such a motley moth eaten bunch of stewardesses (assuming some of them were female !!) in my life. Stood next to the Korean Air cabin crew at O'Hare Immigration. Yeah baby !

My motorbike doesn't register with gizmo that opens our gate as I approach it to leave in the morning. Disaster.

Our 18 year old Filipino house maid wears 'sweat pants' some days, and tight jeans only a couple of days a week.

This is just not acceptable. frown
