    I don't know what you are talking about, it's all the rage at the moment.
    Depends on length of said growth

    Out of the shower! Henry knows his place, he ran to the other side of the bathroom.

    Maybe my bush scared him off? :(

    Just came back from the acupuncturist I've been using for the last few weeks.
    Several things annoyed me.
    First, despite agreeing a price of 40 euro per session with him a few weeks ago, he chances his arm and says today, ' fiddy euro yes'

    Eh no, 40 I told him

    Then when I was lying on the bed all needled up, I heard him dealing with another customer.

    customer was looking for two boxes of tea, for energy.
    Chinese man says 20 euro each. Customer thinks about this...
    Chinese man says, ' Ok, I give you special offer two for 30.
    Customer, thats great, Ill be by in the morning to buy them.
    Chinese man says: No, must buy now.
    Customer says' No, I cant buy them now, but Ill be back in morning.

    anyway, back and forth it went, Chinese guy refusing to sell at lower price unless purchased on the spot, till the customer did the right thing and ****ed off elsewhere with his money

    After I was un-needled, he tries to sell me Woodlock oil
    Then when I go to pay, tries to sell me herbal teabags.

    Really pissed me off.
    So I wont be going back to him, and he lost out on a returning customer.
    hate people who try the hard sell on me. Unless I have a seeing eye dog and a cane, I dont need you pointing out stuff in your premises for sale, as I can damn well see them.


    TL?DR.. I know, but I had to rant regardless.

    Was supposed to be a soft perm for my grad ball, no idea why I thought that would be a good idea, but I looked like a Cure Head:o

    The amount of hairspray used in the 80's is what f*cked up the ozone layer! :D

    My younger brother and his friends were Cure heads, Jesus Mary and Joseph the stink of hairspray coming from his room was far worse than mine when the lot of them were getting ready to go out at weekend. I don't know how many of my expensive lipsticks he fcuked up by smudging on himself, without permission to borrow them. My Dad used to wind him up asking if he had his handbag with him.

    I bought a big bag of HunkyDory's as my weekend treat. I always buy something nice for the weekend to go with my wine.

    Sat down in front of the telly, got up to look for my crisps, only for my OH to tell me he ate them 'cos they were looking at him.
    He's promised to buy another bag tomorrow but I wanted them TONIGHT. :mad:

    I know it's Friday night, but one Ryanair pilot seems to be in some hurry to get home tonight. I could see him on FlightRadar24: departed Dublin 22:42, roared over south Dublin on full throttle, shot over the coast at 13,000 ft 5 minutes after departure, and by 10 minutes in he's halfway to Wales. At this rate he'll be hitting Birmingham within 1/2 an hour of takeoff. Hope he has good brakes ...

    You are the type of what the age is searching for, and what it is afraid it has found. I am so glad that you have never done anything, never carved a statue, or painted a picture, or produced anything outside of yourself! Life has been your art. You have set yourself to music. Your days are your sonnets.

    Lots of annoyances tonight.

    1 - early morning drinking which resulted in me falling asleep at about half two and only getting up an hour ago. Of course I didn't have anything to eat before drinking/sleeping so when I got up I was actually very dizzy. I was so hungry I made scrambled eggs and so I wasn't hungry for when the only takeaway of the week arrived.

    2 - idiots trying to make me jealous, it doesn't work. I don't care but it's boring watching you try.

    3 - weirdos adding me on Facebook with no mutual friends, then sending simpleton replies to my aggressive "and who are you?!" Messages. Like seriously what part of that message Indicates I'm of a friendly disposition and would like to chat and be called "babes xx" fack off, nonuts Sally.

    4 - having great plans to pack for holidays and find passport and then not even bother

    I typed the departure time incorrectly: it was 22:42. it's now 23:12, 1/2 hour after takeoff, and he's now at 11,000 ft descending in to Birmingham. 5 minutes more, he'll be on the ground. Vrooom!

    Aren't Friday nights fabulous? :o

    Did you ever fly Lufthansa in the early 2000s? Takeoff was like being on the pillion seat of a power-wheelieing FireBlade! :)

    So i'm very much into my cars and keep mine immaculate; no doubt many of the neighbours think i'm mad cleaning it every week, two bucket method, drying, claying, machine polishing and waxing on a regular basis. It's pretty clear I know the correct way to clean a car.

    Only for nosey arse next door to come over the other day, who's always out "cleaning" his keep-up-with-the-reg-brigade 141 Korean heap with a bleedin' floor brush. "Here's a good tip for you, whenever you're cleaning the car, don't bother with that stuff".

    He points at my bucket of proper car shampoo.

    "What really gets is clean is baby shampoo, look at the shine on my car".

    Turns around and points at the car he's after driving off the showroom floor 8 weeks ago.

    I was biting my tongue from telling him he did a fantastic job of scraping up his clear coat with his wives kitchen floor brush.
    This is the same chap who tells people he barely knows how much his daughters wedding is costing.

    What a smug, dopey-arse twat.

    Ah yes, wife's should be the word there! And in case it's deemed as sexist, he's a lazy bastard and she does all the work in and out of the house from what we can see.
