I think it's probably a good idea. Admittedly, I don't know the shopping centre you're talking about but I imagine that a self-contained area for children to play in while their parents do the shopping and go to the bank etc is probably beneficial to all. It saves time for parents, frees the supermarkets up of bored children who can cause a disturbance and creates employment for whoever looks after them. Obviuosly, if the management company has put it in an area which doesn't suit, shoppers should let them know.

On another note: my trivial annoance today is people letting their dogs wee outside my door. I'm fed up pouring bleached water over it! Wee stinks!

If they'd positioned the Play Area properly it would have been very handy for parents doing their shopping to leave the kids for an hour or so, but they put it in a narrow area which is really busy and will just get in the way. I can understand what they're trying to do, they just did it the wrong way. It's a shame really, then again the management of that shopping centre are regularly criticised for the running the place so badly.

Really, you don't see that blocking off a big space in the centre of one of the busiest parts of a shopping mall on one of the busiest shopping days every week for 2 months is a problem? Try getting to the bank, or maneuvering a trolley around them. A stupid, stupid, stupid idea.

My tracksuit bottoms had no pocket so I had to store my house key in my bra when I went for a walk.

Just read that the local shopping centre is going to be running a kids playgroup on Thursday afternoons all through July and August. Bad enough in itself, but the real kicker is that the area described as the Kids Play area, is right outside the fcuking bank in the busiest part of the mofo shopping mall. Whatever fcukwit thought that one up should be strung up by the balls.:mad:

The continuing invasion of Americanisms eg poop for poo, shopping malls for shopping centres, elevators for lifts etc

Just try the old "There is a fire alarm here now, I need to go" line?

Or the "sorry I cant hear you , its a bad line, your breaking up, hello, hello are you there?"

How is this a problem exactly?

Incidentally, I get the impression that you are following me through different threads looking for an argument, if so please get a life as I'm just going to ignore you from this point on. You're just getting a tad dull now.

People who use the word "loose" instead of "lose" annoys the bejaysus out of me lately.

I thought it was confined to the Soccer forum, eg "I can't believe we're loosing 3-0 to Villa at half time" but it seems to be popping up all over the place.....or maybe I'm loosing my mind

Go to a nice restaurant for a meal of a Saturday night and the background musak is some wannabe Sinatra whining away. Play the man himself or don't bother.

People who walk in the centre of the aisle. I got stuck behind a guy in Lidl this morning and couldn't get past him because there were staff restocking shelves. The fcuker kept stopping and starting so in the end I had to turn back and use a different aisle to get by. On the plus side I only had 1 item and a lady kindly offered to let me go ahead of her at the checkout.:)

People, pottering along in the overtaking lane. If you're not overtaking, GTFO! :mad:

Nope, still worked fine and tasted just as good as it would have if it had been direct on the BBQ

last time we used the BBQ (a gas one ) my boyfriend used a baking tray from the oven and covered in tinfoil and put the stuff on that on the BBQ - worked perfect and no cleaning the BBQ afterwards

Losing the end of a roll of Sellotape. Has caused me many near-nervous breakdowns in my time.

Casual bitchiness. Bitchiness for just the sake of it. I've encountered it a couple of times today and it's bewildering. Happy people don't feel the need to snark at others for no reason, I'm fairly sure the guy doing it isn't particularly happy with life.
