I've said it before on here but it seriously needs reiterating; When using a supermarket self service till, pack your shopping away as you go. ie- place your bag for life in the bagging area and place your purchases in said bag after scanning. Do not just pile up your shopping and then bag afterwards!
It ain't rocket science!!!2 -
Too much top quality sport on during the week! How can I get my chores done when you have World Cup football, One Day International Cricket V Australia, Royal Ascot and The Stella Artois tournament all going on during the day on TV???!!!
This is a mock moan of course! I love it.0 -
Trouble is a bag for life will often tip the scales and you have to get the assistant over to validate it. Where I shop the woman in charge is invariably deep in conversation with her mates and by the time she responds you may as well have taken your place in the queue to be served.Riviera said:I've said it before on here but it seriously needs reiterating; When using a supermarket self service till, pack your shopping away as you go. ie- place your bag for life in the bagging area and place your purchases in said bag after scanning.

I have on many occasions taken the executive decision to do exactly what winds @Riviera up, but believe me it is for the greater good.6 -

you need to make sure it's a reasonably heavy item though so that it doesn't pick up on the weight difference. if you put a pack of chewing gum through with your bag for life the machine will throw a hissy fitRiviera said:

Gabriel Clarke for ITV... Really think he's a prick when he's doing interviews
Seems the way he talks, its as though every sentence he says has to be a statement rather than telling it like a normal human being1 -
That little klaxon that's fitted in all cars which goes off in the cars to tell the driver that "addickson is behind you, you must approach the traffic light on green at normal speed and when you get to 100 yards from the green light you must slam on the brakes and crawl at 1mph towards the lights, only speeding up once the lights turn to red and you go through them, leaving that addickson in a seething mess."3

Oi, leave Gabriel alone! That man used to get up in the middle of the night to present Endsleigh League Extra! Back in the day that was the only way to see the goals we'd let in the previous weekend if you didn't have Sky.ForeverAddickted said:Gabriel Clarke for ITV...

When they put the scores up during WC matches, they scroll through the goalscorers so you can't read the at once. FFS, its all formatted for wide screen so use the space wisely: put all the goal scorers names an a row and it will take up less of the picture and less time to read.0

Just the general "Club before Country" for many fans annoys me, I manage to support Charlton and England with the same vigour so struggle to see why others canti_b_b_o_r_g said:People putting up photos of Harry Kane in an England with the hashtag, COYS
Many of those fans are supporters of the top six and so are fans of their clubs because of the success they bring (aka Glory Hunters) - Because the England National Team dont win anything, those fans arent interested; no doubt if Harry Kane scores the winner in the World Cup Final the comments will be: "Spurs won the World Cup"3 -

The ratio of sparking water to still water at any event. Do any people even drink the first? Yet it’s always seems to be a 50/50 split resulting in the still running out!2

-People in offices talking about football as if they're an authority on it during the world cup with messi this, neymar that despite never showing any interest in football at any other time.
-Arm chair premier league big club fans in offices who talk like they're an authority on football despite not having any insight beyond what sky pumps into their hollow heads.
-People in offices who to about "stats" in relation to big 4 club players despite never going near a real life football ground.
-The (nice) bloke years ago in an office who asked me who I supported and when I replied Charlton he asked in all seriousness "Yes but what premier league team?"
-How football has become "culturally appropriated" by the selection of morons in offices outlined above since circa 1996.
