If we have a telephone conversation, and you end it by saying "Byebyebyebyebyebye" I will delete you from my contacts.
And swear at you passive-agressively after the call has ended.

The Irish are dreadful for doing this. I wonder if it just harps back to the old analogue days when the line wouldn't be released until both parties had successfully put the phone back on-hook.And swear at you passive-agressively after the call has ended.

Working from home yesterday and played a blinder.
Been doing work on the garden over winter, resulting a a number of piles of leaves, pine needle, weeds, much of which hasn't made it into the bin. If we're self isolating might well be doing more gardening, we also have bin strikes due over pay and conditions of biffa contract staff.
Soo, only managed to get one bin full out Thursday, bin men came and went, bugger...
...but we're on the corner! Bins in the other street not yet done. So quick as a flash I shoveled piles of weeds and leaves into both bins, full to the brim, out of our side gate. Plus half a bin load into the neighbors bin. Twenty minutes late, sorted.
Two bins, three and a half bin loads! Roll on lockdown.
And yes, we do have plans to sort out an area for a couple of compost bins. It's on the list not the house is increasingly less like a building site.

For many years, I've felt that it's about bloody time that we stopped going on about the fking war.
We haven't actually learned anything about the horrors of war; the "blitz spirit' wasn't, really; and the ritual annual jingoistic virtue signalling, I can do without.
Well now, I fear, it may finally happen. Next year, we'll start banging on about the fking "lockdown spirit", telling our kids about the time all the car batteries went flat, and standing in silence for a minute every bloody Thursday.
Sigh.....

oh, look South Staffs Council, Staffordshire County Council and no doubt every other stupidity-ridden, waste-of-public-funds, similar dinosaur up and down the country: you closed the tips and fly tipping has increased! WTF did you think was going to happen with half the country stuck at home? How difficult can it possibly be to enforce social distancing at the bloody tip? Nobody wants to get anywhere near anyone else at the best of times!!!

Yeah, it is true that it is unreasonable to ask the selfish moronic fktards of this country to hold onto there tip run for 4-5weeks during the peek of the largest and most deadly pandemic seen for over 100 years. What bds the council are for not forcing the staff of their subcontractor to put themselves at risk while the public have a bank holiday deep clean of the attic.Really?
We have done some cleaning and tidying and sorting of the garden, and have a small mound of things waiting to go to the tip or charity shop. However oddly enough as they managed to come out of the house and garden we have managed to keep them in the house and garden for a few weeks. Odd small bits that would have to go in the mixed waste at the tip rather than the segregated hardcore/metal/weee/etc can be filtered into the general waste bin which is picked up fortnightly as always.

Dear Dustmen,
How difficult is it to PUT THE DUSTBIN BACK WHERE YOU BLOODY FOUND IT?

Please put my wheelie bin anywhere. Anywhere other than bang in the middle of the drop kerb onto my drive that means when I get home from work (those were the days) that I have to get out of my car and wheel it out of the way before being able to get onto my drive.

Did anybody ever put a parcel on their parcel shelf?
Tissues, yes. Cushions, yes (inexplicably). Nodding dogs, even? yes, but parcels?
When the parcel shelf was invented, what did they assume to boot was going to be used for?
