Ha yep...I think when that happens, everyone expects that the real number is going to be a bit higher.....but 'double'?...either its taking the michale, or he's perhaps quietly trying to say he doesnt want the job!!

I dont want to speak for spartacus...but to be fair Alan...the title of this thread suggests he doesn't really need a reason:)

Lets keep this as a safe space for us grumpy old pr!cks, opinionated so-and-so's and general whingers.....

Ah because I was challenged about it ...

Don't challenge and I won't rationalise 🤔

Fahrenheit. Never got it. I've only heard it once in recent years when Attenborough used it on one of his programmes, obviously for the backward Americans. Not just Fahrenheit, all those stupid imperial units. Should have gone whole hog in the 70s when we started to enter the modern world. Deport all the metric martyrs to the States.

You caught me fair and square.

I thought I had gotten away with living like the common people , doing whatever common people do, sleeping with common people.

Multi millionaires bleating from California about how tough their life was

Trying living in a tower block, 3 kids, two bedrooms, lift broken. Zero hours contract, lose your pay if someone's ill. Chronic illnesses. loneliness And so and so on. Some of us might think that this is tough. I've been tipped from indifference to disgust

No. I often wait for a gap in the traffic if not in a hurry. I prefer that to causing both unnecessary inconvenience to a string of drivers and the increased fuel use and pollution.

[malumbu]

People who do not put an appropriate subject matter on an email or a thread, and/or just rely on a link without explaining what the communication is about. Not being facetious, it really winds me up!

Lazy leaflet delivery people who leave leaflets hanging out the letterbox like some sort of signal to burglar "yoo hoo,no-one in here" and worst of all I'm not even interested in the bl00dy crime prevention advice in the leaflet

[KidKruger]

Whenever any incident occurs in almost any place, there?s always someone quoted by the media as saying ?ooh, nothing like this ever happened here before? as if their observation has any meaning or relevance.

Now THAT winds me up.

i.e. ? Neighbour Mavis Wakeford, 79, added: "I've lived here all my life and nothing like this has ever happened before."

[Cyclops]

Those that use the expression "Get In!"

[BrandNewGuy]

Talking of expressions ? "You've got this." No, I haven't, but I do have a rising rage at your stupid boosterish expression...

Trades people who when invited to come to your residence to quote on a job, turn up without a face mask. Thank you but no even if they are the cheapest quote.
