Drinking a lovely bottle of 2006 amarone with dinner and a friend just topped my glass up with Barolo! WTF!

We call the big girl at work the biscuit tin. Always stuffing her face with them. Thought of ginger nuts in her mouth just turned the milk in my frosties sour frown

I'm here at 2am reading pistonheads feeling sorry for myself loading the toilet with my digestive tract after my 7th chemotherapy session for Hodgkin's Lymphoma. Third world without treatment I'd probably be dead (tumours were eroding into both lungs and compressing output tract of heart; would have invaded that too if left untreated) leaving my wife and 11 month old.

Might be doing this wrong but it has cheered me up..

I'm disgusted that the Heathrow Hilton hotel doesn't have free wifi in the rooms! I had to wander down to the lobby and lurk like a teenager to post this.... frown

Squeaky belt tensioner on my car, it's annoying. I've temporarily fixed with some WD40 but I'm going to have to bite the bullet and get a new one. FFS.

Windscreen fitted about a month ago. Yesterday passed a truck going the opposite way, throwing debris everywhere.

Washers on and a nice big scratch on the month old windscreen following the passengers wiper arc into the drivers side.

First world problem as some people don't have cars never mind windscreens.

The coffee cups that they threw in with my new Porsche don't fit under the nozzles in my Bean To Cup machine frown

i would have skinned them. Mrs 2CV's Dad regularly mixes wine in other peoples' glasses and looks bemused and a little hurt when they (in other words, I) try to stop him.

House security system beeps several times when it's set, potentially waking up my niece and nephews.

Irrigation system for the gardens made the patio a bit damp.

Only wanted a couple of glasses of bubbles but there were only magnums in the fridge.

Holiday woes at my sisters place in South of France, really struggling here.
