No offence meant, it was just a joke.

I have a bad habit of leaving lights on. You'll always know when I'm home because the house is lit up like a christmas tree. This drives the other fella mad. He thinks you should only turn lights on if you need them. It's actually cheaper to leave a light on than to turn it on and off many times.

Anyway - there's one light that's over the dogs couch that I like to leave on. Went to turn it on there, and the miserable **** is after taking the lightbulb out of it. Control freak much? I'm SO tempted to cut the plug off his playstation. See how he likes those apples.

My TA is washing everywhere. Dirty washing a mile high. Half dry washing off the line that can't be tumble dried . The washing machine is full of wet washing. The weather has been crap for putting washing out for days now:(. I feckin hate this time of year. It's sad when a line of washing blowing dry on a nice day is one of my greatest pleasures !

Don't worry, I saw it too, but the deletion fairy seems to have taken it away.

Oh Lexie, never visit my house. I have an annoying habit of going around turning lights off! Even the main switch of the cooker and shower get turned off if not in use. I can't bear to see the satellite box left on standby either. I think it's my CDO (I prefer OCD spelt alphabetically!)

TA: my eldest granddaughter just called to know what "we" are doing for my birthday in a few weeks time. After more than 70 birthdays I don't give them much heed. Even in my prime I wasn't a great one for birthdays. She says she'll talk to Gran about it - time to lay low for a while.

Foreign people putting down Ireland and things Irish people make. While living in Ireland.

My Father is Foreign and he even says if you put down the Irish all the time why are you even doing here ?

Pfft no he was threathening to do it for ages. I really miss my old housemates. I was out on New Years eve and met my favourite one. He told me they miss me, and I got lots of hugs. I would love to move back in there.

Bundle it all into a couple of black bags, call your local laundrette and ask do they do collections and how much they charge per kilogram (had to spell that out because I was reminded just now of someone else's TA from before

). Usually should cost around 2.50/kg.

Annoying me just now is my big mouth - see someone with a stack of paperwork in front of them, I ask is there anything I can help with, turns out there's plenty I can help with... balls

You're helping them with their balls? Do you work in a men's fertility clinic? :P

Customer comes in and is a refused a refund as she has no packaging and no receipt and the item is not sold exclusively here. She shrieks for a manager so I nip down and patiently explain that I need proof that she purchased it here to do the refund.
It's faulty so no you don't she crows self righteously, I know my rights!! ( one of my all time favourites) Listen you thick swamp donkey you obviously know nothing as anyone with half a brain knows that a receipt is proof of puchase so no your not getting a refund you twat!!

It's my birthday next week but I've deferred it til some other point in the future gift wise. I hate having a January birthday and my father in law is 70 at the end of the month so Mr Pumpkinseeds is off to the UK for that. Nobody has any spare cash and I don't need anything so I told Mr Pumpkinseeds to just surprise me with a gift over the next few months when I'm not expecting it. I'd prefer that:)

When someone asks if you want something (cup of tea, chocolate bar etc.) and you say no thanks, then they say "why?"

My brother almost always does this. I appreciate you offering me whatever it is but there's no need to ask why I don't want it.

Like when you ask someone if they want to go for a pint and they respond "No thanks, sure I am not thirsty"

WTF has thirst got to do with going for a pint?

Chancers on adverts. Someone made an offer on one of my things, just a tenner but I agree to get rid of it, we arrange a time and they don't show up.

Checked his profile and noticed he made offers on about 30 similar things and had most accepted, wtf?! Next person wants me to deliver it as well. Ugh I think I'll just put it in the attic instead.

I havent used a washing line for years. I dont have dryer currently either.
I just hang my stuff upon hangers and hang them from door frame. Usually, they are dry by the next morning, unless, maybe jeans, the waistband might take day and half.

You should give it a try

I know is not the same as washing hung up outside, but it will cut that pile down

NO!!! NO NO NO Lexie, you wouldnt!!!

Think back to all your earlier posts complaining about the madness,

Dont go back , fook himself out, but dont go back there

opening a can with a tin opener and the lid falls into it grrr.

The word 'brouhaha'. When did this enter the general lexicon? An awful sounding word that I can't seem to avoid recently.

People who still can't spell my name despite me calling out each letter.

Ah yes , I usually resort to clothes horse, backs of chairs and rads for stuff that's some part dry off line;)

When it's really bad, One eyed Jack, I will very begrudgingly take the drownded wet stuff to the laundrette !!

One of our neighbours has a rake of kids, and I believe she has an indoor laundry room, with indoor washing lines. I'm well jell

Oh, that drives me mad! My OH has an unusual surname, a variation on a common one. The kids have double barrelled surname ( I know , I know, so pretentious !!!!) as we are not married. I have a pain in my face spelling it out, for it still to be spelt every which way but correctly.

My youngest has what would probably be considered to be an old fashioned Irish name, again a few variations on how to spell it. I consider it a matter of respect to learn how to spell someone's name.

So yes, it would also be a TA of mine. That and people who sneer at double barrelled surnames. Seriously , is your life that sad that you have to be concerned with stuff that doesn't effect you !! I'm stubborn in the regard that I wasn't carrying children for 9 months, for them to have just their Dad's surname!
