    Got the builders and decorators in starting today, lots going on over about three weeks, can't stand all the mess and noise so I'll be sneaking over to Tenerife to avoid some of it.

    That's a shame, going on a summer holiday when you've got the painters in.

    I may have raised this before but ‘Remastered’ albums that have 150 versions of the same track. 

    I’m not an anorak, it’s unlikely that I’d recognise any differences! So, f*cking leave it out!

    ‘Oi no’ as the Self Righteous brothers would say!

    The learner driver company that has suddenly started bringing learner drivers up our road to perform three-point turns, parking manoeuvres and have a general chit-chat with their pupils.

    I realise it's an irrational annoyance but why can't they just piss off to Bermondsey or Norwood.

    Wanted to go to Bitch & Stitch yesterday.
    Day before I’d had been with a mate outside a pub who that evening then tested positive for Covid.
    One of the girls in B&S husband is in remission from cancer so I thought I’d better ask if she’s ok with me still going given the circumstances on the group WhatsApp.
    She was perfectly fine about it, most of the rest of the group were fine about it.
    But one girl (who grates my brain anyway) starts ranting about people not testing anymore, gallivanting about not caring, using out of date testing kits blah blah blah!

    I still went, after I used an in date test which was negative, & the moaning bitch didn’t even turn up! 
    Gutted, cos I really wanted to read her her fortune 🙄
    You tell fortunes KB?  Can you have a go at Charlton 2023/24 😄

    Taking an iron back because the tank is leaking, then getting it back "repaired" and they have done fuck all.

    You build / receive a sandwich which contains loads of everything and is cut into quarters.  You make a grab for the first quarter, but unbeknown to you, the bottom slice of bread is not cut clean through.  The result of which - leaves what can only be described - as a road traffic accident on your plate - and that's if you're lucky, because it could be on the floor!

    Anyone remember these, the London Cheese Cake? I used to love these as a kid and I don't remember there being any filling inside, in fact I'm 100% sure there wasn't.

    When I saw one in a bakers the other day, I bought one and couldn't wait to get home and rekindle childhood memories.

    I took a large bite and my pleasure turned to horror as bloody jam oozed out, FFS!

    Why the f*ck do wankers have to ruin everything by sticking jam inside, do you think jam is perfect, in f ing everything, well it ain't and don't bloody do it.

    I agree with you, there never used to be jam inside. Locally they where known as hairy Mary’s, in fact it was only a few years ago I learnt there proper name.

    On a similar theme, the lack of bread pudding available now, Gregg’s have plenty of room for endless varieties of cup cakes and donuts but no bread pudding.

    curry houses not sending poppadoms with my order

    Chinese restaurants not sending prawn crackers with my order

    I don't care how good your food is, I've got plenty of places to choose from and there's a good chance I won't be ordering from you again if you're not giving me these as freebies

    So you didn’t order poppadoms or prawn crackers, but are annoyed they weren’t delivered for free?

    Curry houses that now charge for the condiments to eat with your (paid for) poppadoms.

    Damn those restaurants for having the cheek to charge a price for something that costs them money to source and produce.

    Why should I pay for rice to go with my (paid for) chicken tikka masala?

    Do you adopt the same policy in pubs? Look I bought a pint and they've not given me another one free.

    I did that in a West End theatre earlier this month. I couldn't turn the thing off quick enough. Quite embarrassing. 
    The play was a comedy so the people around me just laughed it off but my wife was less forgiving.

    The point is it used to be part of having the poppadum's not a further charge for the relish/condiments to have with them. Your analogy might be more like saying paying for the lemon wedge that comes with my Bhaji.
