    Don't get me started on them! I love most of them but the insanity I get to hear on a daily basis either keeps me young or it is putting years on me. No inbetween 

    Worst of all, hardly any of them drink so the wandering through the gates of the yard at 11am or returning the dozen phone calls made first thing at lunchtime is never down to being comatose/in a police cell it's down to Xbox and a refusal to wake up born out of stubbornness and zero fear or comprehension of a consequence. 

    Good luck finding the address out of the 20 or so to choose from

    leave him there, go down the pub, and dock his pay because you couldnt pick him up as the address was incomplete.

    Egg stains.

    I'll consume eggs in all their formats, but an egg stained plate, yuk.  Egg stained clothing is vomit inducing.

    Letting agents. Moving out in a month, and they want to do viewings while we're still within the contract, which has a clause that we have to allow viewings but the Housing Rights website states we can still refuse. We're gonna leave the property 5 days early and I've suggested they can do it then but they don't want to. There's a lot of work needed due to shoddy builders so no one can get in quickly.

    Am.I being unreasonable?

    I don’t think you are. If there’s lots of work needed then they could have asked you during your tenancy anyway so you got some benefit. 
    I once lived in a flat above a letting agents and they used to let people to do work on the flat in when I’d gone to work. I only discovered after they left some equipment behind. 
    Leaving 5 days early is good of you, don’t let them push you.

  • A full 18 years since it was last called the Premiership I still see people calling the Premier League the Premiership, mostly on here. Scotland has a Premiership, rugger has a Premiership. The English top flight is the Premier League.

    I'm in that camp myself. I'd sooner call it the First Division but for some reason the Premiership gets right on my nerves.

    I grew up in a household where it was the hit parade not the charts. That annoyed me as well!

    Being crap at golf no matter how many times I play.
    Then, just as I am ready to give in to the inevitable and give the game up, I play the perfect hole and believe I'm not as bad as I think I am.
    So I carry on......

    To settle things, here's a explanation on Wikipedia.

    A Cadbury Picnic bar contains a milk chocolate coating with a center made of crispy cereal, caramel, peanuts, and dried grapes. The crispy cereal pieces, chewy caramel, and crunchy peanuts provide a variety of textures, while the dried grapes add a hint of sweetness and a slightly chewy texture. 

    A Lion bar consists of a crispy wafer filled with chewy caramel and crunchy cereals, all covered in milk chocolate. It's known for its multi-textural bite. 

    You can't beat multi-textural bite in my opinion.

    When you're on the top floor of your block of flats, skylights open and laying in bed with nothing on when contractors walk past your window while cleaning the roof. The letting agent didn't even let us know this was gonna happen. I'm now traumatised.

    Luckily im half tech savy, but good luck if you're not and require any assistance. It must be difficult to use or get help on purpose.

    Dart Charge price change from 01/09/2025

    How much are the charges going up by?

    Charges are increasing by up to 40%. This means the charge for cars will rise from £2.50 to £3.50 (or £2.80 for account holders).

    That seems fair.

    I hate this country.
