When filling out an online form and you get to 'country with multiple choices.
Ah, I'll scroll down in alphabetical order to Britian, oh, no Britain.
OK, down to England.....nope.
Down down down to UK. Is UK a country?
Google says the UK is a country and England is not??
Every Tuesday I do my Tesco order for delivery next day, and to keep ahead of the game, the first thing I do is to book another slot (usually 3 weeks in advance) by just repeating a previous order from say, a month ago, just to book it now, and I notice that each time I do this, the prices have gone up considerably!
BUT today's "re-order" from the 2nd of February of £91.46 would now cost me £153.52!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WTF!! I expect a bit of inflation, but that is effin' ridiculous
The cost of Easter Eggs this year!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Don't you hate it when you're all cool and funny and sexy on the phone, but the miserable cow never calls back? That's why I stopped working for the Samaritans.
Yesterday, driving through Newmarket town centre to the racecourse was a straightforward & trouble-free experience.
Obviously too straightforward & trouble-free for the local authorities. Today, for the second day of the three day race meeting, they've decided to begin roadworks with 3-way temporary traffic lights. You can imagine the result.
It must take a special intellect to come up with these plans.
Those ridiculous squarish corned beef tins with the silly little metal keys
Nearly cut the end of my sodding finger off
I'll use a bloody angle grinder next time
Not pissed off but saddened.
I had my annual MOT at the doctors. Usual stuff, bloods, pressure, weight and questionnaire.
I was texted next day to call the doctors to discuss my blood results.
Who doesn't worry when that happens?
I called and was told to phone the next day at 08:00. I did and the automated voice said I was caller 32 in the queue
Press 1 and we will call you back when it's your turn. But they didn't.
Next day 08:00 again 27th in the queue. I sat in the queue for an hour listening to inane music.
Finally, I was told 'no face to face appointments for a month, the doctor will call you at 13:00 tomorrow.
She called the next day at 16:00 to tell me everything was OK and normal, I'm just low on vitamin D and have been prescribed some vit D pills.
I'm not knocking the NHS but it shows how overburdened they are. (and I could have done without crapping myself for days)
