    Double strength orange Squash, doesn't ever taste the same regardless what squash to water ratio you use.

    Doesn't help forgetting its double strength and necking a pint of the stuff!

    No offence Dave, but I thought squash was a thing of the seventies. The only times I've had it in the last thirty years have been after giving blood. For me real juice is infinitely preferable if available/affordable, and if not plain water is superior. Interested to know, how many people drink squash regularly.
    I do. Currently have 3 bottles on the cupboard - lemon, peach and apple & pear. I drink about a litre a day - i find it improves the flavour of water. I also have 2 cartons of juice - 1 orange & 1 tropical
    Ooooh - get you with your "two juice fridge", Golfie... :lol:

    Seeing someone watching a kettle boiling away for 2 minutes until it switches itself off before pouring out the water. It's boiling ffs, it doesn't get any hotter!!

    Roadworks, temporary traffic lights and road closures in Bexley Borough at the moment.

    What do they do, sit there scratching their collective arses for five years and then all of a sudden decide let's do everywhere at the same time and bring the borough to a standstill.

    Petrol station kiosk workers.

    There could be a queue the length of the Great Wall of China but the other attendant will still continue replenishing the cigarettes, then disappearing to the little room at the back before walking into the shop itself with a box of Twirls to put out.

    Yeah I gave some assistant in morrisons petrol station in Erith a tirade about this recently. I was 8th in a single queue and she was adding to an already fully stocked kiosk of sweets. Ludicrous.

    Jobsworths and fuckwits come to mind.

    Is it just me but whenever I drive eastbound on the M20 and see a car with Belgium number plates I have to overtake to see if Roly or KM is in it.

    Itching to get the raised digit in use. Not spotted them yet, but will keep looking.

    I'm not a biscuit person myself. I do like an ice cream though - magnums

    I remember when they did the 7 deadly sins in 2003/04

    I managed to get 5 out the 7 before they were discontinued

    People who describe themselves as 'not a [insert item here] person.'

    Great effort on the magnums though, i'm not really an ice cream person.

    The sooner this scumbucket goes bust the better for all concerned.

    If the product doesn't work or is not the size its stated on the box then under the "sale of goods" act you are legally entitled to a full refund.

    or do I suspect that you are just p*****d off that you bought something that you are now not happy with & its your mistake.
