    I suppose you could demand not to need a pee and stay in your bed. :pac:

    If you could share your success with that demand I'd be delighted!

    When you see the canteen have burgers/chicken burgers on the menu.
    You're thinking 'oh lovely.'

    You go up at dinner time to get them and there they are.

    There big huge extra large jumbo buns,
    with a **** little button of a burger inside :(

    yep, and then you have to cut round the edge of the burger and cut the bread away so you feel like you've a massive burger after all... so annoying :D

    When someone parks outside my driveway and I cannot get out of there.

    Even with grease on either side of my jalopy. Stuck.

    GRRRRRRRRRRRRRR. And I don't know who owns the car either.

    That is probably MORE than TA if I am being honest.

    It is more than a TA..

    Give the Garda a call..

    S.I No 182/1997 Road Traffic (traffic and parking) Regulations 1997

    36. (2) A vehicle shall not be parked—

    ( g ) in any place, position or manner that will result in the vehicle obstructing an entrance or an exit for vehicles to or from a premises, save with the consent of the occupier of such premises;

    If you are in Dublin City give the clampers a call.. Got a car shifted for me..

    Happened me before. Others were constantly blocking my drive and one night I needed to go collect my younger sister from work and couldn't get out. That was the night I had had enough. Called the guards and they gave the owner, who had a right attitude on him, a good going over. Never happened again.

    Ugh I have a few friends like this. I just don't bother meeting them now. It drives me mad when people don't think to ask you a question. It's made me ridiculously aware of it when speaking to someone so now I ask too many questions.

    I have a friend and an aunt like that. My aunt in particular is exceptionally bad. She will talk non stop about every aspect of her life, even down to the exciting nitty gritty of how her husband, her son and her daughter all like their spuds cooked and will not ask any one else how they are or what news they have. Seriously, what way they like their spuds cooked!!

    Thank you, it is great to have a reference to legislation when calling the Guards.

    I just did not know what to do except be very annoyed!

    And it happened again, before your post. But I didn't need to go out so I just let it go at the time,

    But... I took down the reg all the same! thank you.

    TA that the wind has battered and near killed the first flowering tulip in our garden.

    My experience is the Garda won't come out if they are "busy" but take pictures and the reg number.. I got on to the councillor who gave me the direct number for the clampers. Called them, car was moved but back to square one now..

    Its a TA that will get out of control and will just get worse if you don't nip it in the bud now.. I know! I let it go on too long!

    Note the obstruction bit also.. If you have to do a 40 point turn manoeuvre to get into or out your drive, its obstruction.. Or so I was told..

    Being pregnant at a wedding, apparently makes you fair game for being mauled. Hands off the bump boozy.

    Having to travel 4+ hours home today :( I'm absolutely dreading it. I can't even sleep because I have a fear my husband will fall asleep at the wheel, so I have to stare at him for the whole journey.

    It's usually those nights that you have no interest in or motivation to get ready, that turn out to be the best nights ;)

    Not knowing what swiping is :D

    Fcukwits who go to other peoples houses after the clubs have closed to keep drinking/getting stoned all night. The cnut next door uses his house as a drop in centre for such fcukwits. He's so pathetic that he waits up until the early hours of the morning so they can call in and stay there instead of going home. A quarter to 5 this morning we were woken up by a few of them going in and they're still up. It sounds like a Beavis and Butthead convention.:mad:
