Yotube vids are similar.JohnnyFlash wrote: »American food blogs. You go and search for a recipe, and click on a link to visit a site. There you get their life story; how they discovered the recipe, and what they want their kids to do in college. Finally you scroll down through 20000 words to get to the recipe, and discover they are using the preposterous imperial and cup system.
Grinds my gears.
Went looking for saffron rice instructions and got a 20 min talk on how her friend makes this for X holiday and it tastes divine. She's a good cook as mine was rubbish

The office bragger
Hours in the office are long for me the past few months, 10-11 hour days with 30 minute lunch breaks but I get overtime so all ok. I am glad to be working of course and every minute I work is logged.
A senior manager was hired in a temporary contract for a few weeks to help write procedures. He is leaving next week to take up a new job. He was to be with us 3-4 weeks at most on a temporary contract.
My TA is the bragging
- Travelled the world, telling me about 5 star hotels and business class flights
- Buddies with Sheiks and Arab royal families.
- Has the ability to get Formula One drivers into Bahrain nightclubs
- Met Diego Maradona, chatted up Beyonce and other celebrities
- Drove the Sheiks personal cars like a Buggati at close to 400km per hour
- Billionaires begging him to spend weekends on yachts
- Earning 300k a year in a PAYE job last year he tells me but you are a temp contract in our lowly office
Now the guy is senior like head of department level and no doubt is on good money. I also believe he did indeed do a lot of travelling but this level of bragging is ridiculous and only intends to big himself up and make the listener feel like a loser
If I said NASA was sending me to the moon I think he would tell me he would be the 1st man on Mars
I've a family of cousins who are always trying to one-up the rest of the family.
Latest is one of them saying he is buying a racehorse. He is 34, in a low paid job and lives with his parents in a council house.0 -

Goodfellas have these new Pizza Pockets. Handy little things, 2 minutes in the microwave and a grand handy pizza like slice. They're great for me as I find I can't finish a whole pizza these days. So, 2 min in the microwave (and 15-20 in the oven?! WTF?), but it says 'For 1 pizza pocket' on the back. Nowhere does it say what to do if you want 2. I'd imagine it needs more time, but I ain't got time to be testing that!
Use a toaster and a toaster bag/pocket thingy.

Porklife, if I were you, I'd email their customer service management and tell them of your experiences over both days and how it made you feel.
I actually have a 25e voucher for BT since Xmas but everything there is well in excess of that, Im grateful for the voucher I received as a gift but maybe somewhere less 'posh' would have been better for me
To thine own self be true
