Not that I am superstitious or anything (caresses lucky rabbit foot as he types) but Friday 13th is going well for me so far


Got woken at 4am by a recovery truck picking up a crash damaged Addison and Lee taxi (why do these recovery trucks make so much noise running their engines in the middle of the night?)


Made myself a cup of tea this morning only to discover my favourite mug has cracked and more tea is outside me than in me


I am now scared of eating those delicious English strawberries I bought yesterday In case I find a new friend inside one.


How is everyone else's luck today ?

That's not related to the date, that's the lords of ED punishing you for shopping outside of lordship lane 😳

Ha ha TheArtfulDogger. You know, sometimes, the best thing you can do in this life is go shopping where your heart tells you is best to go. I miss Iceland, there I've said it. I miss it a lot. I'm not being an inverse snob here telling everyone they can't buy organic kale from a caravan parked on goose green, no!!!!! I'm just saying, sometimes there's nothing wrong with wanting a ready meal from your local shop. But now all we have is the co-op. It's annoying I won't lie it's bloody making me furious even now.. But I don't care anymore. So, maybe Jesus is punishing me for going to asda in charlton rather than one of the fine estate agents along the lane, you know what who cares!!!! Ha. Happy Friday one and all.


Louisa.

And thus begins the next chapter in advertising for Iceland, Peter has been dropped in favour of


a actress is quoted as saying 'I can buy all this delicious frozen veg and pass it off as organic kale from bobbys van because by time it's defrosted no one will know the difference' followed by the voice over stating "that's why Louisa slums at Iceland"

    • For every person like OP that moans their doorbell was rung and there was a knock on the door, there's someone else moaning that they didn't hear the delivery drivers. If you've ever done delivery work you'll know that loads of people's bells don't work. The delivery drivers probably goes to a hundred doors a day: press bell, knock door, drop package, move on. If you don't like delivery drivers, insist on delivery by Royal Mail where the workers have wages and a union - or just stop ordering shit online that's artificially cheap. But most of us (me included) don't want that
    • If someone comes to my house and bangs my door and slams my gate, I'd speak to them about it nicely and ask if they would please not do that. And then subsequently less nicely if they keep doing it, ending in reporting them.  We don't slam doors at home and I don't put up with that either. I can see us moving to a culture where we bribe drivers to be nice by tipping them, but we shouldn't have to. It's not necessary - does not matter if they are on minimum wage or not, or if society means that delivery services are outsourced or whatever reason anyone would like to concoct.     
    • We’ve got a gap on the roof of our shed that needs patching  don’t want to buy a huge roll so hoping someone has some leftover  happy to collect/reimburse 
    • I never said I thought it was targeted or deliberate. There also has never been a “stand off” or confrontation, we’ve spoken to them in a friendly manner about it. Our experience is they don’t seem to care. That’s the frustrating thing for us, if someone politely raises a concern at least take a second to reflect. Treat others how you would want to be treated.  I don’t want them to lose their job, far from it. But considering it could cost me a days work to fix any damage, I’m within my right to try prevent it.
