I have learnt that "kahplah" is Klingon for "success". I'm sure that will come in very handy.

I have learnt that if there is a badger in your garden (who incidentally was nearly the same size as my old mx-5) at 4am in the morning, at NO point should you try to poke it with a stick while drinking coffee.........it WILL try to kill you!!! And the outcome will be spilt coffee and stubbed toe on the doorstep while undertaking as SAS style retreat movement........

That discussing the issues of binge drinking whilst having a few yesterday, thinking its a really bad thing to do that... Just then watching a mate get a text of his slightly annoying gf and then shouting in the middle of the pub...

fk THAT where is the vodka.

Then whilst I go onto soft drinks, he destroys himself... I left at 9pm and left it to my flatmate to carry him home, but heard his gf try to kill him at midnight when he staggers to the door and hulrs abuse at her.

Good job he owns his own business and doesnt need to go in today, bad job hes my neighbour as I can hear every word of his arguements.

Morale of the story kids.... Binge drinking on a sunday will give you a hangover on monday and ps off your girlfriend.... plus no doubt hes blaming me for it all.

That the company delivering my new oven are a bunch of fking idiots.

"yes sir, your oven will be here today" (between 12 and 6 I might add - what a ball ache)
"brilliant, thanks very much"
"we will send out an engineer later in the week to fit it"
"what, you mean to put the plug in the socket and turn it on?"
"well, yes"

you are fking kidding me, i'm not allowed to plug a socket in? They need an "engineer" to come and do it. I have wasted my life with a masters degree to become an engineer - should have just went to plug insertion school.

That we do not have any bannanas or weetabix in the house.

I also learnt as a by-product of the first example that my little girl does not like cheerios.
