My wife wouldn't let me install air conditioning in our house as we only need it three days a year. Well it has been three days, now...

My computer keeps lagging. Inevitably it'll freeze for anything between 5-30 seconds and then every keystroke in that period happens in .2 of a second.

Its very irritating.

That's because it's probably got a keylogger running logging your keystrokes and sending them all to someone in Russia wink

Hackers, viruses etc, a first world problem we REALLY could do without.

My daughter has bought a young & inexperienced pony for the grandson to ride, & is keeping it at my place. It is a nice little thing, just inexperienced.

It was all nervous & skittish when the farrier tried to do it feet. He refused to do it, suggesting we give it more training.

I can't quite understand how it has become my responsibility to train the thing.

Sell it to a French butcher and tell your daughter it ran away. Problem solved AND you've made a profit.

Just had this circular at work:

'Has anyone seen my white square plate and 2 white bowls edged in gold leaf?

I don’t really want to eat my quiche off the desk.'

Finished work early today and decided to get the Thames Clipper from Embankment. Noticed upon boarding just now that compared to other TC boats there's loads of bike storage across the width of the thing. Went to the bar for a bottle of Meantime and am told this is their newest craft which doesn't yet have an alcohol licence!
Glad they're doing well though... passenger numbers seem to be increasing, not just when there's a tube strike!

Oxfam adverts. Settled down in front of the TV after a good meal with a 'digestif' and some caramel sea salt dark chocolate, to be confronted with one before I could switch over.

Naturally I thought of this thread straight away.

Can't find hand beaten gold Caviar spoons anywhere, and worse, early French, Russian influenced ivory tipped Grape scissors appear to be unobtainable. Does anyone still do hand woven silk shoelaces? Is craftsmanship dead? My hair consultant tells me I'm too fussy. Vacheron tell me the correct colour of diamonds for my new watch will take some time to obtain, Flog them all. I am incandescent with rage.

My upgraded hire car is far too complicated to completely fathom out the whole infotainment system in the two days that I have it.

Disaster, darling!
The rechargeable Bluetooth speaker has run out of battery whilst floating on the inflatable flamingo in the pool in the Dordogne.
