I'm resigned to drinking Aspalls Premier cru cider from my etched Tiger Beer glass, as the Aspalls one is currently in the dishwasher. This is despite me being explicit in explaining to my wife that it is unacceptable and she needs to stop the dishwasher cycle and retrieve it.

I am surrounded by lazy ne'er-do-wells.

Needed to time the lamb i had in the oven, couldn't find the egg timer so used the bezel on my Rolex set for 25 minutes.
If you have a bi-directional bezel then not a 1st World problem.

If you have a unidirectional bezel then definitely a 1st World problem.

Serves you right for letting the scullery maid have a day off.

So are you a country bumpkin village idiot or a 6 tikka masala half rice half chips 90s style lager lout?

I've purchased a headboard for my bed, and it has 7 vertical panels on it. Who the juddering fk thought 7 was a good number. It was not easy breaking it to the wife that she will from now on only have 3 of the 7 panels of space rather than a 4-4 split like on the previous headboard.

Humanity is on a downward spiral with this sort of carry on.

My wife and I have developed a system for a fair and democratic 50:50 division of the bed. She has the middle and I have both edges.

Whilst using a cleaning product on from my Hunter Rubber Care Kit on my somewhat soiled green wellies, I managed to spill some on my Barbour Gentleman's Parlour Shoes (which are posh slippers) and leave a small mark.

This is bad enough in it's own right, but now I'm worried if I buy some Barbour Parlour Shoe Cleaner product, and do the sensible thing and wear my Hunters for that cleaning operation, I may end up in the exact opposite situation...possibly ad infinitum...

Tell it like it is, she will only have 6 panels now, instead of the 7 she previously sprawled across as you balanced on the edge. biggrinbiggrinbiggrin

Went to buy some Vaseline (for dry lips) and the supermarket only had massive tubs, with the baby stuff, not little tins, so I've spent £2.50 on about the next 20 years supply.

surely anyone with half a brain knows that these gunk products for lips create a dependency... if you use them then you need to keep on using them.

I doubt if anyone with half a brain would be able to apply gunk easily.

One of my flatmates - a real go-getter of a business student - walked in today and announced he'd had to leave his shopping at the counter in Lidl, because it turns out they don't take Amex cards.
I suspect he's the only person to ever to try paying with an Amex card in Lidl hehe
