Tell us something really trivial about your life (vol 25)

[Mr Roper]

Good morning everybody.

[pad58]

Ro'ster have you got any snow?

[DickyC]

Snow here that has settled for the first time this year. As it's getting on for 1mm thick it will cause endless problems hereabouts.

"Ooh! There's snow. I've forgotten what to do at roundabouts and what happens at T-junctions."

Snow brings out the idiots.

Nope

[DickyC]

When I had the diesel Disco we had fairly thick snow one morning and I drove up to Tesco to find mine was the sixth vehicle there and they were all four by fours. There were two Defenders, one from the AA attending another that, judging by the tyres tracks, had done the old "I'm in a 4x4 watch this" routine by taking the shortest route from the entrance to the parking area. Unfortunately, the shortest route included two very high kerbs and he had pulled two tyres off their rims in the process. Clueless.

I just lost an hour in the Utube thread, good stuff in there often disappear in there for hours.

Weekend off is go.... Just got up.

[Fishtigua]

Not much point going shopping this morning. Due to weather, the 03.00 freight ship only got in at 09.20, so nothing is on the shelves yet. The joy of island living.

Grocer should order more just in case ,you know weather.


ION this mornings breakfast consists of two extra thick cut bacon and free range egg toasted sarnies.

Why do I look at the watch thread? You know about "wrist time"? Now there's "wrist presence."

"I'm loving it, has great wrist presence, lots of people at work have asked about it."

[DickyC]

They probably said, "Have you got the time?"

[iva cosworth]

Depressed again.

Carp day at work yesterday, scraped a car and took its mirror off,carp morning at work today, can't get

the laptop to work.

Goodbye......

[DickyC]

Go kill a thread or two. That always cheers you up.

[Fishtigua]

Thought about going out. Hail Shower.

Thought about going out and now it's tipping it down.

No, now it's all sunshine. No, wait a mo......

Oh FFS make your bleedin' mind up.

I'm about to pick up a bottle of red.

I'm in the fortunate position that I have a very good friend who lives only a couple of hundred yards away who had never cooked a meal in his life until last week (he's in his twenties).

Now he has discovered a passion for cooking and invites our entire friends group for dinner every evening. He cooks quite well too, if a little unambitiously.
