    Buy a dvd rom lens cleaning disk kit ,
    2 euro in dealz or 2euro shop .
    IT may be the dvd rw lens is slightly dirty .
    I will try that, riclad, but this has been an ongoing problem for a while.
    Still, anything's worth a shot.

    I'm an idiot,
    I decided to buy a bike cos we don't have a second car and everyone here in Munich cycles. I haven't ridden a bike in 20 yrs. there is a reason for this!
    We decided to just go to the park, and our sons new trailer thing would only attach to my bike. So the incredibly unfit me thought that cycling for 2 hrs hauling 30kg was a good idea.

    My ass is killing me but crap my knees! I couldn't sleep last night coz of the pain. Can barely walk today.
    Stupid me promised hubby I'd cycle everywhere....

    Fuk them..sit in the car and wait for them to back up!! I do this all the time..no way am I going to scratch my new wheels(plus Im a disaster at reversing but they dont need to know that;))

    Haha! I will only reverse if they have right of way, which is most of the time unfortunately, when I come in from the top end. I hate reversing, my brains go to mush at times. It's not natural to be driving backwards, for feck sake :)

    I agree..I remember dreading the driving test mainly because of the bit where you have to reverse back around a corner. On top of the fact that its a brain musher I have it drilled into me not to scratch the wheels off the kerbs,its like a double pressure and it hugely TAs me:pac:

    My annoyance this morning is that I have a splinter in my finger.
    A teeny tiny one that I cant get out.
    And I am at work...have no tweezers or savlon. I wonder would one of the Ladies that work here have a tweezers that they may lend me.....

    Ah skittles I posted the opposite (the pavement jumpers not the drivers, I'd be delighted with a beep!), where they see you and refuse to move, meaning you have to go onto the round. Worst of all it happens when they are walking towards the traffic so they see whats coming behind you.

    Ahh ya this annoys me too and is much more dangerous than my TA. Lack of footpath etiquette in general.

    Oh and ...*beep beep* ;)

    Ads for toothpaste. Why don't they use toothpaste in ads for toothpaste? Also, why isn't it teethpaste instead of toothpaste?

    Buses. It's like a sauna, I'm sweating, my legs are too long and my knees are in bits from the seat in front.

    So I moved to the back but the angle is weird so I feel like I'm being pushed forward. This is really sh*t.

    Oh no, don't cancel. I did that once, and never again.

    I was at a funeral earlier and couldn't help but notice, some people near the back of the church/doorway couldn't stop yapping. What kind of idiots go to a funeral and then can't shut their stupid traps. Are they there to pay respect or cause offense? Because to me it looks like the latter. The funny thing was, there was a Muslim couple sitting beside me, the woman was wearing her Hijab and I was struck by the respect and reverence they had for the ceremony. They had more sincerity than the hypocrites behind us.

    The bloody noise from my pc speakers when a mobile phone signal comes through, driving me spare.

    I painted the outside furniture exactly a month ago today, and I haven't actually sat outside on them once because it has been raining/cold here every single day since! Seriously what the actual fudge is going on with the weather?!

    On catching sight of myself in the mirror, I realise that the older I get the more I am starting to look like my elderly aunt :(. It would sting less if I liked her, ha :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,495 ✭✭✭KatW4


    Omg I think I'm going to scream. Why can't a person close their bloody mouths when they eat. I actually think I might throw up with the noise he's making. Absolutely disgusting and a complete lack of manners.

    Ugh, I watched a film at the weekend and the main character (a young woman) kept eating with her mouth open and talking while chewing! It was so distracting!

    My industrial piercing is angry and really red because I walked into a door at work :(

    Pins and ****ing needles in my foot. Couldn't move for a good 5-10 minutes and basically had to lie still in an awkward position until it stopped. It's a horrible numbness.

    I read just there that sitting awkwardly is a cause of it,....I've a bit of a habit of sitting on my foot, **** you circulation....


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,572 ✭✭✭Colser


    Heating on again:(

    Had a raspberry flake mcflurry earlier (which was yummy) but they didn't put enough raspberry syrup on it! I'm one of those people who drown their food in syrup/sauce. I might ask for extra the next time :D

    Soak in fairly hot water and then use a sterilised sewing needle to pick it out

    Feel like a killjoy for this, but when people say "Summers were so much better when I was a kid" - no they weren't, the occasional nice days just stand out in memory.
