It was a courier company.

Maybe they had brides trafficking as a second business :eek:

Women in wedding dresses directing traffic, I'd pay to see that!

Beats the lollipop lady or the Garda drafted in from the countryside on match day that doesn't know his arse from his elbow! :pac:

Seriously though, it seems these days (did I really say that) there is the "list" that is issued to the minder of said offspring.

Summer - only gets half a yogurt
Arapahoe - Banana (must be mashed)
Matt Talbot Bridge - No alcohol

And all to be in bed by 6.30

codeine does that....on tylex here, same formula as solpadeine...warding off migraine and dratted wrist pain.

simple aspirin might help more. or brufen.aspirin fights temperatures and infection.

suppose you have tried salt water,,,i mean on the abcesses...

Think I've tried just about everything over the past 20 odd years:)

So I bought a packet of bobbins Friday after misplacing the pack I bought the previous month, only to find them today!!! For fudge sake!!! I literally pulled the place apart looking for them god damn bobbins and was down to my last scraggly one, when I gave in and bought another pack. And then I accidentally stumble across the pack I lost today!!! TO-FECKING-DAY!!! I bought the new pack on Friday. :mad:

Ugh. :mad: Happens to me all the fecking time! I'm also an expert at 'hiding' things, the hiding spots are so good....I can't even find the stuff myself when I go looking for it......:mad:

Sounds familiar. The quickest way to find something is to buy a replacement. I'd misplaced a couple of philips screwdrivers. Hunted around all over the house. Finally gave up after a few months, and bought replacements. I'd found them within 24 hours. Obviously after I'd removed all packaging from the new ones.

This is a complainers thread. We can complain about whatever the hell we want to complain about.

I'm not going to stop social networking just because someone had a poop machine. I'm also not going to stop listening to **** radio even though I complain about how **** radio stations are.

Somebody vandalised the Bob Hoskins (RIP) page on Wikipedia. They changed his name to Bob "Foreskins".

Children... i really have no time for them! I try to make an effort with my friends kids but all i see is noise and mess and money and it's always a relief to leave the carnage behind when they/I leave.

I'm far too selfish and want to do far too many things with my life to want to have to suddenly put my life on pause to bring up a gang of sprogs! Maybe somewhere a lot further down the line when my body is tired of enjoying itself but It's not on the cards for me in the next 5 - 10 years if it can be avoided. it's a pity not more women feel the same way but i guess that's more of a biological thing in their case.

All my friends with kids obviously love their offspring but i know even though they don't admit it part of them wishes they could pack up and head off with me on my travels whenever i leave.

Grace, I took it from the the above posts that you were picking on OldNotWise. Down with that sort of thing!

I was simply pointing out that this is a thread about 'trivial things that annoy us all'. We like to come on here and b*tch about stuff that p*sses us off. Sure, we could stop doing 'X' which causes us annoyance but then this thread would be empty and where's the fun in that?

P:S: SIW's, WTF?

Aye, something similar to myself -

When my wife goes away for the weekend she tells me feck off and mind my own business while she leaves a list of do's and don't's and emergency numbers with the young lad and puts him in charge.

We tear it up like "Weekend at Bernie's", but as long as nothing's out of place when she gets back, my wife is happy!

Yeah. Bit like when we go shopping, and Mrs. Goose gives me an Etch-a-Sketch and puts me sitting in one of those little Magic Bus ride-on things by the supermarket door. Yay!!!

i do not pick on anyone ever..

just cannot imagine any sane person going on doing what they despise and enjoying doing this....

life really is too short..and a bizarre idea of fun

old saying, if you cannot say something nice , dont say anything

one thing to find circumstanes annoyng when they cannot be avoided..

but enjoying being miserable...


siw = self inflicted wound

Please don't report me to child protection, if they come and search my house, they might find all the cannabis growing in my attic.

If you are really concerned, I appreciate it. For the record, the initial part of my original post is correct, my "kids" are well beyond requiring a babysitter.
