Really sorry to hear about your insurance BB That sucks
Whinge alert!
Swimming training - why is the lesson soearly? Why am I OK with any of the floaty stuff but rubbish when I have to put my head under the water? Why don't my goggles fit? Why did I get bad looks from people when trying to do my hair in the mirror? Do I really have to do 2 extra sessions of drills a week on my own where I'll look like a drowning numpty? Do I look fat in my swimsuit? Why is the lesson sooooooo early?
As you were
At least you're out there and trying, LN
I'm in the learning process too, and it sucks not being able to do it properly. But you know the best thing - neither of us have managed to drown yet
News International - you haven't "totally refuted" what Hugh Grant said - "refute" means that you've proved it to be wrong, what you're doing is denying.
Dear visiting support worker people. Saying do I have to take my shoes off while proceeding to trail mud through the house is very rude. However, thank you for helping.
For the first time since I was made redundant, I am getting a bit worried about the money situation. I would probably be alright if Christmas wasn't looming.
Please please please get round to scheduling this second interview so I know if I have the pennies to buy a few presents. Sorry to sound so demanding on this point, but I've been in this position before and the 'they want to see you for a second interview but they're struggling to find diary time' become 'oh, they filled the role, sorry' a month later.
This is a STAFF car park.... for STAFF, i.e. people who WORK here or other COLLEAGUES who come to meetings..
It's not a free facility to allow your lardy arse to get that little bit closer to shops and cafes so you don't have to carry your bags quite as far... while people who work here returning from meetings have nowhere to put their cars...
Dear buildings admin...
Can someone enforce the bloody car park please??!!
Lorry driver!.....you to*ser!!........do you really have to drive that close to me when overtaking me on my bike, you had the whole road but decided it would be better to get as close to me as you coud, thus making me sh*t myself and scrape my leg and arm in the hedge!
I just waited 5 minutes for a lift that was still nowhere near arriving so still had to walk the 16 flights to my office in a winter coat so now I am sweating.
And no, I am not grateful for the extra "training"
My wife just put a reserve on a greyhound (actually a Spanish Galgo) from Greyhounds In Need. There didn't appear to be much room for me to negotiate though!
Dear SOLB You have nothing to sulk about, for goodness sake please cheer up!
Ha TP & Nam when my Dad & I were still friends we turned communicating into the biggest farce possible. I won't talk on the phone & he can't text. I text him, he then phones me back to leave a voicemail, I collect the voicemail then send another text until we've finally made plans.
LN, your second bit needs more explanation...I'm hoping you caught someone being rude in what he thought was a language no-one else would understand.
Exactly that, well the man commented on my boobs and shape in front of about nine other Japanese men. What he said wasn't crude but he'd never have said it if I thought I could understand him so I turned around and said in Japanese 'In the 21st century, it's difficult to tell who can understand Japanese isn't it' 1 point to the foreign ninja

Dear middle lane hogging numpties, sitting in lane 2, forcing lorries to swing round to overtake you, endangering and delaying the rest of us...
If you're too anxious to change lanes confidently or drive faster than 60... get the f*cking train!!!!

Mr A, could we have a retired greyhound please?
We're in dog negotiations at the moment.

You've no idea how odd you post sounds to me. Our cat is called Frodo, I think I know his opinion on the greyhound question without asking...
News International have limited grasp of the English language?
Who'd have thunk it?
LOL - my retired greyhound could tell you a few things about cats, too!
Alybea - seriously, if there's anything I can help with, just PM me

Fingers crossed AN.

(great ride other than that mind!)
Dear lift system, you are sh*t,
I just waited 5 minutes for a lift that was still nowhere near arriving so still had to walk the 16 flights to my office in a winter coat so now I am sweating.
And no, I am not grateful for the extra "training"
Dear Mum
Please learn to work your flipping mobile so you don't send every text message twice

Actually I have said this but it hasn't worked, I also bought a new phone which I though was simpler but still it's duplicated 9 times out of 10.
You have nothing to sulk about, for goodness sake please cheer up!

Brilliant response, I hoped he breaks out in a cold sweat thinking about it for many months to come.
