  • If we start with jokes about politicians who are not everyone’s vessel of beverage of choice, we will soon be removed to the House of Commoners/Lords/independent judiciary/bishops contributions to Charlton Life threads

    It's Friday night, I've worked hard all week. So I think I'll pop down to the supermarket and get myself a few Broadsides to chill out with. On the way, I nip into my son's bookies to see if he wants anything.  "Err, yeah can you give me a lift into town in a couple of hours?"  Doh!
  • Same visit to the bookies, and as I'm walking out the door he's putting up his deal of the day for tomorrow: Newcastle v Leicester.  "I was thinking about making it Charlton v Leeds" he told be, "But the odds are too depressing".

  • When sports authorities (FIFA, WAA, OC etc) think that "diversity & inclusivity" means that world events or competitions should be held everywhere, even if it means that certain events have to held at midnight because it's too hot otherwise. (The Marathon at the World Athletic Championships if you are wondering). 

    I'm just waiting for the Inuit's to discover football & FIFA holding the 2030 World Cup in the Arctic........

    I guess you were Golfie… Not so unusual, you being a bit out of step with the rest of us - nothing wrong with being a rebel.

  • Bands who release records that aren't to standard tuning.  I don't want to have to re-tune my guitar just so I can strum along with the cure.
  • Tory Party Conference.  Not for political reasons (well, not only for political reasons). I'm working in Manchester next week, but their conference has priced me out of all the local hotels.  I'm having to commute from Stockport :-1:

    A work colleague who decides to start talking to me or asking me to check some work they've done while I happen to be eating something at my desk. Something that takes me 2-3 mins to eat, yet the work they want checked takes 30 seconds, and usually still has a couple of hours left on it's deadline to be completed when he asks. Or he'll wheel his chair to my desk and start browsing his phone talking at me while I have a mouthful of food as though i'm letting my focus down and inviting conversation.

    Or same work colleague who asks me to pop round to his desk to check some work on three different instances instead of waiting for one time for me to check all three pieces of work at the same time and preferably outside the 2-3 mins I might spend eating something.

  • Been debating switching from iPhone to android for a while. Saw that Samsung were doing the S10 off contract with a free galaxy watch!

    Had a look into it and a good think and decided to go for it. Luckily I read the terms and conditions as it turns out the watch had to be claimed by 30th September. 
  • When you get a new bird and you're at her place and you really need a dump and / or fart
    I remember those days, it's almost as of your body stores your noisier grunts for the evening. There is only one way to tackle this and its head on. 
  • Motorists who get frustrated by and/or drive like pricks around learner drivers. We’ve all been there ffs!
    Agreed we’ve all been there, but don’t schedule lessons for rush hour. I never did that.

    Is the wrong answer. Should driving instructors not be able to earn a living just because you're busy? Should learners have to wait longer between lessons? Don't learners have to be able to learn in rush hour, anyway? If your rush hour commute takes too long, perhaps you should be the one modifying your behaviour and get a job where you can do your travelling at times when its more convenient.
