    Can we please remember the thread title and take any cat stories to the, as yet, uncreated ‘Cat stories’ thread.

    Cheers everyone.
    Okay Okay... Put the claws away... Although I agree it would be more purrr-fect if a separate thread was created
    agree, we were a whisker away from this thread being derailed.

    If anybody does create a new thread, can they call it ‘Pussy Tales’.

    Think there’d be a lot of interest.

    Delivery drivers not waiting for you to answer the door before ringing & knocking again. 

    I live in a town house and have at least one set of stairs to negotiate, 2 sets if I'm upstairs in the loo or having a shower.  

    Today the usual happens. Door bell goes & I'm watching the cricket on tv. I get up off my chair I make my way downstairs. Just reaching the last stair & there is now a loud knocking on the door. It's taken me less than 10 seconds to get there.....

    Just wait ffs  !!!  I realise Amazon/Hemes etc have a lot to get through during the day but please, at least give the homeowner time to get to the f**king door.

    My front door is on the side of the house.  I put the bell push on the far side of the door using the sticky tape provided.  I realised it would have been better on the near side as visitors approached - but there simply wasn't room - and in any case it is not beyond the wit of man to glance all around a door frame for a bell, after all we have put a man on the Moon.

    How wrong could I be? Visitors (mostly delivery drivers) would smash at the glass door in varying degrees. Either I wouldn't hear it or alternatively think that I'm under some sort of attack from a schizoid maniac hungry for blood. 

    I have now conceded defeat and revised my opinion of mankind's intelligence.  The bell push has been removed, as has the sticky tape and it is now attached to the brick wall on the approach run.  It has worked a treat.

    I find my delivery drivers are too scared that a single noise will create a Zombie apocalypse so you have to be ahead of the game round here to be able to listen out when they get to the door - Bloody pisses me off as got a doorbell yet they never use it!!

    It could be Covid related & them not wishing to press 100 door bells each day?

    He probably is not aware that Demelza House exists,but he should be,someone should grab him by the bollocks and drag him there and tell him,"this is where our money should be going"

    Not questioning the validity of your point but Demelza house is a charity

    Yes it is,but surely some funding should be there to prevent financial hardship,I have a friend who,tragically had two sons who where born with life shortening conditions,both spent much of their lives in Demelza,I went there many times to visit them and could not believe that the whole organisation was funded by donations,the facilities,the people who work there(for a lot less money than an nhs pen pusher)are just incredible,this country has got a lot of its priorities wrong.

    The widespread and continuing use of "Boris" to refer to our Prime Minister. He's not, never has been and never will be our mate and if he were we'd call him Alex.

    The money that Johnson wants to spend on that vanity boat could help a lot of charities.

    Why does it bother you, don’t understand it. 

    Christian name or surname, he’s a prat, nothing changes.

    Same thing with people calling Duchatelet "Roland", I'm not sure why it annoyed me so much.
