    overly polite Irish driving habits. people letting pedestrians cross 20 metres from a crossing. letting cars out even when the road is quiet.

    also the way many drivers seem to turn their lights on at 2 in the afternoon during winter, even on the motorway.

    Having to answer the same weekly question tomorrow: 'What did you do the weekend?'

    I feel too ashamed to say I stayed at home and watched TV in my jocks so I'll either have to lie or say 'Noting much' which awkwardly and abruptly ends the conversation.

    Mind your own business!

    Cabbage! Not cabbage itself, I like cabbage. But the pricing of cabbage in lidl. 99c per kg. There's no weighing scales in lidl. How the hell am I meant to know what a kg of cabbage looks/feels like ? :confused: I tried to figure it out earlier but I was like to hell with this.

    Same thing happened me two weeks ago. Sweet potatoes were on offer in lidl (0.49 for a kg). How the hell do I know what a kg of sweet potatoes looks like ?

    Aldi have weighing scales. It doesn't make sense that some fruit and veg are priced per kg when there's no way of telling what their weight is.

    Lidl has also caught me out with this per kg pricing. Saw the 99c for cabbage sign a few weeks ago and I was like 'great, plenty of cheap meals out of it.' Didn't spot the 'per kg' bit. Queued up and it was weighed and it was 1.60. :(

    Sunday afternoon. Nothing like a bit of Jazz on the radio while you are fluthering around the house.
    But 'Jazz FM' is having a blues afternoon...which is a bit depressing.

    That should be the norm. And on a day like today lights were needed at all times regardless.

    The OH is going through a mid (late haha) life crisis. He was in a mood last night and although I enjoyed the food in the restaurant, nothing would improve his mood.

    Anyway, when we went back to the bar for a last drink I soon realised what was up. AHA, there was a boxing match on Sky something or other that he had forgotten about (he was a boxing coach in another life and loves it, I naturally hate it!).

    So there I was sitting looking at something I hate giving daggers looks and going into a strop on the way home in the bus.

    Men just don't understand that ladies like to be centre of attention on a date night, not two blokes bating the sh out of each other. I can't understand it. I am still annoyed and in a huff.

    So there.

    When this happens my main concern is that everyone else in the pub knows that you are fuming with him and are picking up on the fact thats hes watching the TV and Im guzzling my drink in temper..you end up being that couple sitting together but not speaking to each other(the ones we used to pity years ago:().
    Do not stay glued to the TV or your phone lads when you are on a night out with your OH..it never ever ends well:p

    Crushed up my loaf of bread when I packed it into bag, considering ironing the slices back to its optimum size.

    Described to a T there!

    TBH I was so mad that I didn't care about anyone around me. Red flashes every minute.

    But anyway, it wasn't the worst thing that could happen. But a suitably chastened OH made dinner this evening. Was nice too. All is forgiven.

    Exactly. Stay home and save yourselves the hassle.

    Nah I don't think it's necessary except in heavy downpours. today was fairly normal apart from a couple of showers. I can understand it on small roads but on the motorway it serves no purpose (assuming drivers have no visual impairments)

    She could definitely have done with a bra alright, but then the dress looked like it was fashioned out of industrial strength tit tape anyway :D

    No..worse night ever imo.

    Just after reading the facebook thread. People who moan about all the annoying people that post things on facebook, yet do not close thier account and still obsessively use it. I think it is the new Opium of the masses.

    Guff about stuff, and stuff about guff.

    I use amazon.de these days, you seem to be more likely to find a seller that ships to Ireland over there. Ridiculous!

    And it's usually cheaper, and they have launched an English version of the site (in beta)..:D
