The way people (women mostly) stare at you when you try on a coat in front of a mirror in a shop. wtf is wrong with them? Gawking fúckers. Have they never seen a coat before in their lives? Have they never seen a woman stand in front of a mirror with a coat on? The whole thing just makes me so uncomfortable and then I can't judge the coat properly anyway. Silly slack-jawed morons. Go try on your own coats.

Election posters in general. But in particular those that aren't attached securely so that after a bit of wind they turn in to missiles.

Maybe they are admiring you.

Yeah he is pretty laid back though he loves to tease the crap out of me.

I suppose it is his way of getting back at me when he was young and I was being the mean old mommy from time to time (single parent and I never had to put myself and my 2 in a tent on the pavement).

He sounds great, send him on!! Just what I, ahem, my girl needs. Just tell him to bring some earplugs, he will need them!

It's akin to telling someone with a new haircut that it takes years off them. Should be a slappable offence.:D

Well that's my quota of humour for a bit, off to get my flu and pneumonia vaccinations now, yay me.:(

"Do these jeans make my arse big?"
"No, that would be the cakes and biscuits..."

Mmm. How about some Ford gauges that usually work well enough, but sometimes when you put in a couple of tenners take not a tack of notice for about ten minutes, only to suddenly move as if to say "Mmm? Oh, some fuel. Right, sorry, I was miles away!".

Do they not still just give them to you brimmed? That's the simplest and most effective solution.

Crisp packets, why are they so noisy when opening them?

Stupid thingies in the airport that weigh your suitcase!!!
On the way over our checked bag came up as 15.2kg and there was hardly anything in it, with the 15.2kg in mind we didn't want to get stuck with extra baggage fees on the way home so we didn't go too crazy with the shopping but we definitely doubled what was in it for the way back and the thingie in Gatwick showed only 16.4kg. Raging!! We bought mainly cosmetics and perfume over there so what we brought back was quite heavy, plus I bought my husband some sweeties in Choccywoccydoodah which were really heavy so I'm very suspicious of the thingy in Dublin Airport and whether it actually works right...

Yeah, Last appealed to the same sort of gowl who thought they should be listening to some sort of classical music, but didn't actually like it. :pac:

some places do.. some dont!

Depends on the company - I guess some places don't want the exposure of a full fleet of fuel?

Can doctors give prescriptions out over the phone? The nurse called me at 5:30 to tell me that the dr will give me a script for antibiotics but I haven't seen the dr. Hmm
