    Its the opposite in my house..OH has the patience to wrap neatly but has to be waited on hand and foot while doing it:rolleyes:Pass the sissors Colser..Wheres the sellotape?...Hold that corner down there..Turns the present around and measures out the exact size paper he needs to cut:mad: FFS just wrap it up in a full sheet and be done with it...it will just be ripped off anyway..Lifes too short for that kinda thing:D

    My most disorganised Christmas was years ago when living at home, and I woke on Christmas morning and realised that not only had I not wrapped any presents but there was no wrapping paper left in the house.

    Not one to be thwarted by such a trivial problem, with a stroke of genius that I'm still proud of, I nipped down to the Christmas tree where the pile of presents had been reduced to pile of discarded wrapping paper and scooped it all up. 'Just tidying up for you Mammy', I told my astonished mother before I tore back upstairs and wrapped my presents with '2nd hand' paper.

    So there you go. Re-cycled wrapping paper. Probably the 'greenest' moment of my life. I think I might even have reused some name tags.

    Ah yes the curse of having a head cold! Everything just tastes bland and you have to breathe through your mouth with every bite. Torture! :(

    I am down to my last few pairs of jeans. This is because I am rather short, and can't find any to fit. Unless I want to wear skinny jeans, and look like Rumplestiltskin off the Ladybird book. They look great on everyone else but crap on me. I'm going out later, and it's bad enough that my best jeans, which I have managed not to destroy by walking on them yet, are still damp. But a little c**ksucker of a bird has sh*t all down one leg of them. One of the very same birds that I lovingly fed today, no doubt. So do I grab a wet wipe, and rub it off, and pretend it never happened? Or wear my old, almost threadbare jeans. TA is the tip of the iceberg:'(

    Wetwipe it - it'll be grand! It's dark out anyway :)

    My TA also involves clothes for going out. I'm 4 months pregnant and at that annoying stage where people looking at me wouldn't be sure whether I am fat or pregnant so everything I've put in to got out looks ridiculous. I might just sit down all night!

    worse is when someone has a run of the mill name, and insist on spelling it for you. Thats Mary Murphy, M A R Y M U R P H Y .....

    My own clumsiness annoys me. Today I slipped in sticky mud, messing up my lovely new boots, spilled every hot and cold drink I poured, bumped into people in shops, broke a glass from a set my OH won in a raffle a couple of weeks ago and tripped over my own feet.

    It was the 12 pubs of Christmas in our town tonight. Just stuck to one pub myself. My TA is the place was full of what looked like 12 yr olds. I kept seeing kids my eldest went to school with, drinking pints. I felt so feckin old :(.

    Wow - who pissed in your cornflakes this morning? TA is trivial annoyance so specific to this thread and has been used in many posts.

    Also, in the spirit of your delightful post, you're not going to get your post thanked until you learn the difference between your and you're.

    I made an unintentional bitchy comment about overeating to Mr Pumpkinseeds when he was telling me how much chocolate bar he was planning on using to make a mug of hot chocolate. Now I feel obliged not to complain about the really crappy horror film he's watching. So TA's of the day are making unintentional bitchy comments and really crap horror films.

    Children running riot in a library. It's getting more like a playschool every day. I delight in seeing kids with a love of books but playing hide and seek in a library or chasing each other around the shelves is not the way to it. I don't want the old style silence of a library but just a bit of common sense and respect for other users of the library.

    Should try working in one. It's unbelievable what comes through the doors and what goes on!

    Sellotape. Constantly turning the roll to find where the bit is to peel it off. You find something that looks like it, but it's the end of the roll on the inside and then you are back to square one.

    Grrrr

    Are you dyslexic? do you not have auto correct on your mobile?

    Yes.. And not having auto correct has not been an issue till now.. Nor is hand writing stuff in capital letters been an issue at work.. Because I am good at my job(s)..

    Brainy as **** just never got the spelling or small/big letters thing right..

    Throwing stones in glasshouses is safe.... Worked in a glasshouse near a scrapyard that had the habit of putting cars in the crusher when the tanks were full. BOOM!

    A 2ft x 4ft bit glass falling on you aint fun… Watching the shockwave come towards you across the bay when it was misty was fun though..

    Happened on a weekly basis and was getting silly at one point.
