    Worked at home yesterday so my car was parked in driveway since Thursday evening.
    Went outside around 6.30pm and noticed that all four hubcaps had been stolen.
    20 year old car - the hubcaps were the original ones that were on when we drove it out of the Toyota dealership in 1999.
    Fairly well worn at this stage but still annoying - why would someone be bothered?

    I love pomegranate. I don't love the icky feeling the juice leaves on my teeth after eating it.

    The septics and their "grilled cheese sandwich", that they make on a frying pan.

    Or broken teeth.


    Really bugs me when sellers don't package CDs properly. A square of bubblewarp over teeth, full bubblewrap and cardboard over the jewel case isn't too much to ask.

    Needed a few soup bowls for a christening, maybe.

    See a CD box set on Amazon. About 50% overpriced. Pre-order it anyway as the price invariably should drop before the release date.
    Forget about it for a couple of months.
    Released last Friday and arrives on Monday - charged full price as there were no movements in the intervening period.
    On Tuesday, I notice that the price drops to what it should have been in the first place.
    Ask Amazon for refund of the difference as it was an obvious mistake on their part.
    They refuse.
    So I return the item for a refund and re-order a new copy at the lower price.
    Would have been much easier if they lost the "computer says no" inflexible attitude and just issued a refund for the price difference.

    They might be hard to pick up now!
    Our rear window washer went missing a few years ago as well.

    Zipper broke on my jeans, they are only a month old. I can't use these anymore, well unless I want to be known as the town weirdo :/

    I have learned a lesson, they were cheap 15 euro jeans from a supermarket. I've owned other pairs for years and this never happened!

    I really liked them though, what a waste

    Or go to an alteration place, they'd replace the zipper for you without having to spend a fortune.

    Annoyed that my sister bought a pair of high heels for my 2 year old (as part of dressup). It is the 2nd pair that she has given her with the previous set being put in the wheely bin.

    a new zip would be nearly the price of the jeans.

    A new zip is less than a fiver, the work involved I'm not sure, TBH, but it'd be less wasteful than throwing out a new pair of jeans for the sake of a broken zip.

    Lidl often have a set of wheel trims for around 15 euro. I have them on my old Corolla, and they look fine. Use a few hefty cable ties on the replacement wheel trims, this will help deter the scum.:mad:

    I couldn't give a flying mouldy f*ck about Harry and Megan or William and Kate. I am so sick of the constant speculative headlines about them. I do not give a smelly, speckled sh1te.
