Grumpy old women...


dita-on-tees

Recommended Posts

As discussed with a not unlimited amount of bile in the half time of ladies football.


Just to get started....


Personally I hate it when you buy reduced items in the supermarket then they go through at full price meaning a) you have to highlight your cheapness to the operator and probably a superviser as well, or b) you end up with something you didnt really want but bought it because it is cheap and you have to eat it that very day (filled with resentment)


The trend for male genital shaving, stop it, stop it right now - I have experienced it a number of times this year and I just dont like it. If I wanted to caress a kiwi fruit I would go to the supermarket (probably in the reduced section)


Modern sandwiches, too much choice full stop. Enter sandwich shop, am stunned by rocket, brie, tapanade, honey roast breaded smoked ham so end up with Tuna and Sweetcorn to avoid filling meltdown. Tuna and fecking sweetcorn.

My gripe has to be child related, and I am a little reticent to write this, as being a non-parental, and can only imagine in my worst nightmares what it?s like. But...


Kids in Sainsburys!!!


All I want to do is go in there and trundle about with my mini-trolley, music on, my list in hand and do my shopping. But you just can?t seem to move for kids. But it?s not all kids in general that are the problem, it?s the fact that they just scurry about, crashing all over the place like it?s an indoor Goose Green Climbing Park!


Only the other day I had some little thing go crashing into my trolley (I was stationary) only to have her father glare at me as though I had hurt his poor precious. This was the same ?brat? had spent the last 30 minutes since I had been in Sainsburgs screaming ?I want..., No, I want...!? and running down aisles.


I know it?s hard to control kids, especially multiple kids. But these kids seem to think they own Sainsbury?s and it?s their own personal gym.


I would like to write more, but I think I might get a restraining order.

People who loose keys rather than lose them. The words even sound different!


The announcer at Denmark Hill who says that any train not stopping 'is not for customer use'. Actually, nine out of ten times it is. It's full of passengers. It's just 'not scheduled to stop at this station'.


Kiwi fruit... hmmm, I'm obviously meeting less fastidious blokes then!

"Some on here would consider that a result rather than an annus horribilis." Haha - indeed..


Kids running amok in places of business pisses me right off tbh - unless it's a creche of course. I was on a train one time with some pest of a parent whose child divided his journey between sitting in the luggage rack making the automatic doors openandcloseandopenandclose, crawling the length of the carriage under the seating emerging between people's feet, and marching up and down the corridor shouting 'the bigger it gets, the louder it is', right into people's faces. The mother was absolutely outraged to be told by the ticket collector to please restrain her child. 'Come along, Taliesin, some nasty people don't want you to have fun'. Taliesin, ffs..!

I hadn't realised this was such a trend, until a while back when it came up (no pun intended) in conversation, and 3 of my good friends admitted they did it, saying "it makes you look bigger". I think there is something rather disturbing about it.

BBC3 announcers saying ?and next we have (programme name)? but first (programme name)?. The next programme is the one that is about to come on, not the one after it!


Has anyone else noticed this? I think it?s a recent thing, but it?s really annoying me.

There is, there is! Too much porn going on, that's what I blame it on Keef. First time I encountered it was on an ex (who was a porn journalist as it goes). But what with all this redpages and the like, people are getting carried away.


Men of Britain, take heed. We're not fooled into thinking it's bigger just because it scratches us to pieces. Stop it!

    • We could not be happier. Brian and Malachi were wonderful to have around the house while they were working. The result is 5 star and with Brian's direction the route we took was better than what we had planned. We love the look of our house it has totally changed the feel of the property and transformed it into a house we are proud of. Thank you so much for your great work. Not one hitch and felt really taken care of from start to finish. I cannot recommend them enough.
    • I wanted to provide a strong recommendation for Nick Minnes and his team. I came across Nick when someone on our street was moving out shortly after we moved in and posted on our street whatsapp group with their top ten best trades people in which Nick was listed as a handyman+. We had just moved into a house that had been lived in for 40 years by a couple in their late 80s so there was a lot of work to do! Over the last 5 years, we have used Nick on multiple occasions. The definition of handymen+ does not do Nick and his team justice as they do so much more than this. The work they have done includes: A complete new bathroom refurbishment (including re-building a new wall) Completely refurbishing a sitting room (including inserting sound insultation and bespoke cabinetary) Bespoke under stairs storage (after a number of other trades people said it was too difficult) Preparing the house for plastering (removing old wallpaper, filling in cracks) Outside restoration of bricks and cornice Fixing floorboards down Nick is not your normal handymen. He is extremely creative and also great with thinking through colour schemes. I wouldn't hesitate to use Nick and his team again. Everything that they have done for me has been of the highest quality. They are trustworthy, tidy, reliable and honest. I already have a list of other jobs to get them back in for. I would very happily provide a reference for Nick - just like the people did who were leaving our road.  Nick can be contacted on: 07866 267 581. Thanks, Andy
