    Management speak. Hoisting it up the flagpole to see how it flies. Taking a Helicopter view. Ball park figure. Joined up thinking. Kick it around the playground. Blue sky thinking. This utter crap is spouted by many people who don't know what they are talking about.
  • Uber - drivers please don't accept a job then procede to sit there for 10 minutes whilst im waiting to get somewhere, was heading up town yesterday lunch at oxo tower then around borough for drinks, was meant to get a 13.46 train so ordered an uber leaving up 30 mins to get there ( drive is about 10 mins with slight traffic ) driver accepts the job and no movement, tried calling but the driver was deaf/hard of hearing so didnt accept calls, cancelled the uber got charged £5 for the privilege and drove to the station, missed the train by a minute so popped into the railway ( bexley ) for a pint quite nice. spoke to uber and they refunded the cancellation fee.

    before i get told - you shouldnt use uber i tried 3 local cab firms who had nothing avaiable.

    I guess Alan McCormack must work for Uber now...

    Moment he heard you wanted to go to the OXO Tower he probably froze in terror like a rabbit caught in headlights

    Football teams doing their level best to let Palace & W.Ham stay up this season. Leicester caved in on Saturday & now Swansea, after being 1-0 up at Everton, give 2 pens away and eventually lose 3-1

    Swansea didnt look great either... Didnt help losing Bony but they looked toothless in attack

    Worst of all they've got Palace next - Be surprised if they pick anything up then either

    Glittery Christmas cards. I've just vajazzled my work trousers
  • Adverts that use the expression: 'For the best Christmas ever'! How do they know what all your Christmases are like? Advertising their tacky products designed to look like designer gear or buffet food for a £1! Get real.

    The senior partner coming into the work khazi to brush his teeth just as I'm about to clear last night's curry. There's no way I could hold on, so can't have been all that pleasant for him.

    People who feel the need to speak very loudly on speaker phone when in public. Why does anyone else need to hear your whole conversation?

    And it picks the moment you want to go out or go to bed and -need- to shut down.

    That's not a fact. It's a choice.

    I'm putting money in his pocket by taking them so far this season when they've asked , at least this way he'll get a little less and my kids will be happy at Christmas. They're only six so explaining a boycott to them just doesn't sink in
