I don't want your grubby mitts anywhere near my cup and you can't make tea for sh1t. Why couldn't you just let me make my own? And don't get me going on the people who offer you sweets from the various tins around the office and when you refuse they put them on your desk anyway, mainly to make themselves feel better that they don't have the willpower to stop gorging themselves on Quality Street.

Ok lets cut to the chase, how much was the fuucken coat?":D

Especially offices where people with questionable hygiene work. I've a suspicion one of my colleague paws all the sweets before choosing one. He deliberates over the "map" on the box for ages. Not to mention all the coughing and spluttering going on around us.

The house is like Santa's grotto at the moment, the lights are up outside and I'm looking forward to my presents and turkey. Personally, I draw the line at decorating the car but whatever works for you. But these things are just stupid and they don't even look like what they are supposed to. They don't make your car look like Rudolph (no not even in an ironic way) and after a few weeks of winter weather a lot of them are already looking dirty, tatty and sorry for themselves. They just look silly and make their owners look like a mug for paying whatever they paid for them.
