In the local health centre recently I was one of the few wearing a mask as per the signage. "Oh I can't wear those" ? "Because I don't like them!".
Neither do I but their house...
next bed Granny was being visited by her daughter and 7 of her brood [ yeah 7 ]
told by staff they all needed to wear facemasks the daughter said the kids can't wear them
due to being autistic.
Yeah I didn't get the connection either.
Just ordered a new mattress, so now we have an old one to dispose of. Go on the council's website - charge is £8. Fairly reasonable, so I go ahead and order it. On the next page - minimum charge is £16. fk off you s. Why didn't you say that to begin with?!
Guess I'll just stick it on Facebook then for free and someone else can take it.

Why not just leave in your front garden? Guess I'll just stick it on Facebook then for free and someone else can take it.

Or just look on it as £16 to remove the mattress for you, which is still pretty decent value. Better than seeing it dumped at the side of the road or your local woods.Guess I'll just stick it on Facebook then for free and someone else can take it.
I've ended up paying for it anyway as the Mrs didn't want to give it away when part of it was covered in my bloody coloured drool
I could leave it in the front garden but not very comfortable with doing that considering the location of where I live - a busy village centre.
They also say the item can't be wet but I have to leave it from 7.30am in the agreed place. They seem to think we can control the weather

Rather than pay for similar I decided to 'dismantle' a mattress. With a fresh blabe in my stanley knife and a cordless angle grinder it took about 15 minutes to get it into pieces that fitted into my wheelie bin.
That's one way to do it I don't have an angle grinder though, and no doubt wench would complain so it's not worth the bother, ultimately!Punctilio said:

Had one collected by the council last year along with a sofa bed. Watching the refuse truck chew them up was impressive!I could leave it in the front garden but not very comfortable with doing that considering the location of where I live - a busy village centre.

Girl from school I have as a friend on Instagram obviously got married fairly recently because I’ve lost count the amount of times she finds any excuse to post pictures of her wedding day.
At least once a week she posts a story wishing someone she knows a happy birthday and every single time it’s a picture of them, with her, at her wedding being the centre of attention.
Screams unashamed narcissism to me and I’m very close to unfriending her but part of me is curious how long she’ll keep it up for.

Isn't that why most women/people post on Instagram? At least once a week she posts a story wishing someone she knows a happy birthday and every single time it’s a picture of them, with her, at her wedding being the centre of attention.

Of course it's narcissism, it's Instagram. That's what it's for.At least once a week she posts a story wishing someone she knows a happy birthday and every single time it’s a picture of them, with her, at her wedding being the centre of attention.

Gaps in queues often annoy me...
Today in Asda, stood in a single line queue to use the bank of self serve checkouts, the person at the front of the queue left such a massive gap in front of them that other shoppers didn't realise there was even a queue and without knowing it, pushed in.
When in a traffic jam, there's always a car in front that delays moving forwards, allowing for a massive gap to be created in front of them, meaning the queue gets longer than it should and can clog up junctions further back. I get that folk driving manual cars don't want to be constantly going into/out of gear, but there comes a time when the gap in front is such that you do have to move forwards.

International Womens Day: it's just another meaningless day that allows woke virtue signallers to do yet more virtue signalling, this time around women.
Who the hell creates these days and who approves them? Then you have weeks and months for some other virtue signalling. Is there a calendar I can check so I can arrange white straight blokes who like food and pints day? Or maybe we should have a month of that? At work when the queen died we went to hang a union flag at half mast. When we looked we had hundreds of flags for disability, lesbians, cyclists etc but did not actually own union flag. How low we have sunk.
Cue a series of sycophantic reply-all emails, thanking him so much. I nearly vomitted.
I'm fairly left wing and was a new man before it was a thing (was going to take my wife's name, but Mark 'unt doesn't trip off the tongue very well in a northern accent.), but for fks sake. Most of the factory workers are female, 90% of the Engineers are Male. All the managers are male.
If you really support international women's day, try employing some women in technical or managerial positions.
