    The thread is borked again, and the WTF thread is perma-borked. New Home will you take that thread under your mod umbrella and fix it please?

    Another gripe, the quote function has become so hit and miss that you are better off just @ing people instead.

    Someone very optimistic set that one up, everyone will have one foot out the proverbial door at that point. Anything after lunchtime on any Friday should be banned, you have my sympathies

    Given the combined aroma of sewage and pot that has been hanging around gardens in this block I was delighted that the man co have decided to pay the council to clear all the drains in the complete block. Can smell the change in air quality already.

    Ta they arrived today and its such a racket I cant hear my phone calls. That will bite me on bank hol Tuesday doubtless.

    Those YouTube health videos that start off with something along the lines of "Ten foods you must never eat!"

    If you took any heed of them, you'd pretty well die of malnutrition.

    Which takes about 10 minutes of waffle to get to the list!

    Having a packet of Walkers ready salted and something is wrong. Look at the packet and it says 45% less salt. Very bland. Disappointing. Won't be getting them again.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 37,087 ✭✭✭✭odyssey06


    Once upon a time wasn't there a Walkers with a salt sachet? Or was that only in UK… need to bring that concept back.

    nosey people enquiring about your plans then trying to rearrange them to suit themselves… NO… not happening.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 15,104 ✭✭✭✭Dial Hard


    Just got cancelled *does a little dance*

    I still won't be let leave a minute before 5.30, but at least I don't have to sit through that while trying to look as if I care now.

    Trivially annoyed with myself, that I took a chance on slatted blinds in the washing machine. Even at low temp, low speed, inside pillow case… Harry Corrys on Tuesday.

    Time to put childish things aside.


    That salt reservoir in the dish washer, it takes about a half a feckin ton of salt to fill, but there's never any in it when you check.

    I can't "fix it-fix it", but I can try and unbork it until the next page. Wish me luck.

    Edit: Nope, if you were referring to the glitch that always, always, always bring you to the first post of the last page, it's not somerhing I can fix at all. If there are invisible posts you just need to keep posting until they all reappear. Very intuitive, I know.

    I didn’t know it a bank holiday

    The Malone family on Gogglebox always have a plate of pastries on the poof but they never eat any. I know why, Daddy Malone always put his shoes up on the poof right beside them.

  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2, Paid Member Posts: 17,207 ✭✭✭✭cj maxx


    Send it in anyway and blame An Post .

    Pay no attention to what @castletownman says 😁



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 12,570 ✭✭✭✭castletownman


    I'm just the link from point A to point B.

    Bit of a related TA: new fella on my route has moved from abroad into a house till the end of the summer. Waiting on a bankcard to arrive for four weeks now. Met me at the drive Monday seeing if I had it, same thing today. Almost feels like he thinks I'm at fault.

    I wonder, is Dial Hard one of the Irish Sopranos?!? I think she sent them to sleep with the fishes. 😨😧☠️🙈😱

    I thought it was because one of the sons is a baker and they were advertising his efforts.

    With the level of hygiene on display between feet on the poof beside them and the dogs prancing around....it's not a great advertisement.

    Amateur professionals(AP), esp when they use their lack of knowledge to undermine my point.

    Mary had gone for a lie down as she had one of her common allergy headaches, after AP had cut the grass and painted the fence despite being asked to do this when she is on nights. AP comments loudly and to everyone that she's lazy and trying to avoid work( with double vision, I would hope so),

    I commented to AP that I feel the issue is in the water pipes, he tells me that they don't share pipes with next door, even tho it's clearly on the plans that they do indeed do so! Everyone agrees with AP, and the situation gets worse.

    AP is neither a doctor nor a plumber.
