LizzieM 9,507 Posted August 14, 2015 Report Share Posted August 14, 2015 # 234 Stephen , occasionally my posts have 'we're' instead of 'were' and that is because I post before checking what I've written and the iPad predicts what I want to say. This may be the case with other folk 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

FLY2 10,108 Posted August 15, 2015 Report Share Posted August 15, 2015 Superb Michael, however, I went to Sainsburys in Arnold. Swarms of immigrants wanting to wash your car. I always park on the extreme left where they don't accumulate. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

FLY2 10,108 Posted August 15, 2015 Report Share Posted August 15, 2015 Probably Lizzie, but this lot are already here. You've probably seen them. I hope that they give a good cut to Sainsburys. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Posted August 15, 2015 Report Share Posted August 15, 2015 With you on that Benjamin, fat parents who take the kids in burger joints,when it's those who really want to pig out!! Over eager shop assistant asking" what size?" Folks that leave dogs barking, rough families who name there kids Tremayne etc.. Company bores who use the expression " roll out". Menus that over sell fare/freshly brewed tea,8 day hung steak etc..forms that ask British- Asian or Other,I ALWAYS fill out other and put English!! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
catfan 14,793 Posted August 15, 2015 Report Share Posted August 15, 2015 #244. FLY2. Just tell em to "Piss Off" ! Walked into a shop in town this afternoon & was greeted by a spotty faced youth saying "Hi Guys", big, big mistake. I let Mrs Catfan loose on him, she hates being called a "Guy" ! That was entertainment at it's best ! In another shop I was looking at trainers & looked at some which I liked until I saw the price...................£95 ! I don't bleedin think so. On the way out I thought if they can be cheeky daft so can I. Asking if they did a pensioner discount ! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
FLY2 10,108 Posted August 16, 2015 Report Share Posted August 16, 2015 Whenever I'm after trainers, I always buy Reebok and can get some quite smart ones for about £45. Shop around though. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
FLY2 10,108 Posted August 16, 2015 Report Share Posted August 16, 2015 Re #248. 3/4 shorts, football shirt, trainer socks. I'd better have a look in the mirror and have a serious think about this. Yes, at nearly 70 I need to have a rethink. I always strive to stay young though. LOL 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
OrphanAnnie 296 Posted August 16, 2015 Report Share Posted August 16, 2015 I hate being asked my date of birth when I try to pay a bill over the phone! Why do they need this information? The last time this happened it was Severn Trent. I asked why they wanted my date of birth so the chap said 'so we know we are talking to the bill payer'. I said what did it matter seeing as I was paying them, so he repeated he needed to know he was talking to the right person, and was I refusing to give this information? So I gave him a random date and he then happily took my payment!! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
DaveN 1,118 Posted August 16, 2015 Report Share Posted August 16, 2015 #253 If the date you gave was a random one how did that prove to him you were the bill payer? Absolutely crazy. You ought to have asked him his so you knew you were speaking to the right person and/or company. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

crankypig 457 Posted August 19, 2015 Report Share Posted August 19, 2015 What pees me off is (this is very common on woodborough rd) As a bus pulls into a stop,you have no chance to overtake it as its always too close to bollards,but you only have to wait about 1minute.Then some idiot behind you overtakes on the wrong side of the road! Hooting as they go,are they all on something? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
