Am very partial to satsumas/tangerines, my extensive research has led me to conclude that the best ones for both taste and ease of peeling are the ones we get from Ocado.6 -

Must've been a bad batch because never had problems like this before.

To be fair sometimes he's very sagacious. I was expecting him to have a field day as well when I put the post up about my colleague that stank, and how best to deal with it. Yet he surprised me with his considerate and well thought out responseChrissy\\\'s Army!! said:

It isn't the fact that Christmas adverts are already on that annoys me (I mean it does annoy me but that isn't what I'm posting about).
It's the fact that I'm now already totally bored of Christmas adverts because they began about 8 weeks ago.2 - Sponsored links:

Historically low interest rates.
Saving tirelessly for about 8 years (whilst renting) to reach an ever increasing (15k-20k-25k etc) deposit goal as I seem to be the only person who doesn't get a helping hand from a relative. All the while earning diddly squat on those savings and knowing, just knowing that as soon as I get a mortage those rates will begin to rise. Same sob story for many im sure but a tad annoying.
Cue a comment about being grateful - 18% rates in the 80's etc etc.1 -

Why don't people use the luggage rack on trains anymore? There'd be a lot more room if they did instead of ruck sacks between legs and satchels and handbags on laps resting on the person sat opposite or next to them.
Bloody hell, I hate the train commute!4 -
The G Wiz car has recently been voted the worst ever car to appear on British roads. Ex owners advise that the vehicle is slow, uncomfortable, unsafe and as ugly as sin.
This perceptive bunch also go on to advise that you can still get stuck in a traffic jam and the G Wiz will then feel like a tiny, uncomfortable box.
Well you would never know that just by looking at it, would you?

Did you thank her for her good work as CEO of Charlton?andyg90 said:
I bought a replacement at bluewater on Wednesday, £75. Then went to Bicester Village on Thursday and saw it for 49...probably my own fault but annoying nonetheless!ForeverAddickted said:
I purchased one of their windcheaters the other month and have to admit I am impressed as they're great at keeping me warmStig said:Superdry - What on earth are they putting in the water to make otherwise rational people decide they want to buy some overpriced tat from Cheltenham, pretending to be from Japan. Also, why is it so hard to actually get dry?
I also had the most annoying commuter sitting next to me on Friday morning. Eating something that smelt like puke, feet on the opposite seat and loudly telling her friend on the phone how as a lawyer her assumptions are correct 98% of the time...1 -
I maybe posted this before but it was still on the list so I did it again. Sorry.0

Nothing wrong with a little release at the situation pal. I've given up to be honest. Never really had much of a savings pot to begin with and don't get me wrong, overspent and let a little loose a lot in my lifetime. Could I have cobbled together a decent crack at it, yes, no one but myself to blame there. But, would that have been at the expense of having a life during my 20s, most definitely.The Organiser said:Historically low interest rates.

I think it's hard when you play the game as you think it should be played and the market means bar a windfall or as you say, help from a relative, you're just priced out.
I think the whole thing is a sham especially if you're in an around London. House prices astronomical, all this low interest rate crap only benefits those on the ladder. Government haven't got the bollocks to stop foreign buyers carving up new builds into matchstick boxes and renting them out at extortionate prices. They can build as many houses as they like, until the market comes down to an affordable range in terms of deposits, utterly irrelevant.
You are quite right though that you should keep in mind you do have a roof over your head. I'm doing crisis again this xmas. We're lucky. Doesn't mean you're not entitled to a moan though
Oh - and they expect us to save for a pension as well. LMFAO8 -
I get annoyed with those adverts because they're NOTHING TO DO WITH CHRISTMAS!stackitsteve said:John Lewis advert coming this week apparently. Exact date is a secret.
Fuck knows why it's a secret.
No no, I don't mean a Christmas advert has to take place in a barn with a manger and a virgin birth etc etc, not at all.
I mean the one where the boy has a penguin and gets another penguin? Nothing to do with Christmas, could have been his birthday. Last year, a man on the moon wants to spy on children - nothing to do with Christmas, that could have taken place at any time of year.
The first one, where the boy is counting down the days until he can GIVE a present - that was quintessentially Christmas.0 -
People putting their dirty feet on seats on trains. Sitting at Victoria, polite signs asking people to keep feet of seats, twats sitting here with feet on seats. Twats.2

You mean students can afford to live in rented accommodation?
I blame the squatting rules. Should always have some free accommodation available to the more enterprising students.1 -
