    Been reminded by the other thread.....Comedy songs. What's worse is when someone in the office says "oh have you heard this one it's really funny" to which it gets played and they laugh, a couple of other people sort of laugh and I'm left to do that uncomfortable smile. Don't think I've ever heard a funny one apart from the 3 minute song by that Aussie bloke that wears eyeliner.

    Which Tim Minchin song do you mean? He does have some very good ones.
    I'm guessing "If I didn't have you" because that's possibly his most well known one?

    Predictable, although I've never actually met someone who did this (or LibDem, Green, UKIP, BNP etc) so I couldn't say that it bothered me.

    fineprint: I'm not talking about all Labour voters, just ones that I have met that have actually used this as a reason (and I've met quite a few who have).

    I can say exactly the same for Tory voters ( more so in fact ). To say it just Labour is ridiculous.

    I didn't say it was just Labour, I've just never met a voter of any other party who has pulled this excuse. Please read my posts before replying.

    Trying to be organised and save time by putting what I need for the next few days in a given area of my own home only for 'er indoors to hide it all.

    Result: I think I'm ready and prepared for a meeting and plan to leave accordingly. I then cannot find anything and have to attend the meeting, arriving late, and unprepared.

    If I touched her stuff I would never hear the end of it!

    If it is annual leave, just change it to 3 sick days and get your holiday time back.

    if voting ever REALLY radically changed anything for the better, they'd make it illegal!

    When your waiting to cross a road and a car drives up to you really slowly, stop to let you, beckon with their hand to let you cross and then get annoyed cos you've not noticed (Cos of the sun making it impossible to see them)

    Instead if your driving slowly.. flash your lights from a distance and continue going slow so the person can cross the road before you get to them wasting no ones time

    Ha!
    That's good. Haven't seen that one before.
    I generally agree with you about comedy songs, but I do like Tim Minchin. :-)

    I work for an independent pub, there is no such thing as holiday time/pay or annual leave. If I don't work I don't get paid. Making this even more rubbish!

    Walking down Oxford Street yesterday, so busy with it being after work and plenty of tourists, but the amount of people with heads down texting was ridiculous, it drove me mad.
