Tiny Little Things That Cause You Irrational Rage

Soggy overcooked bland sprouts (they are tiny little things 😆)

Par boil then fry with olive oil, caraway seeds and honey. Go on, you know you want to!

People with multi-syllable names who refuse to accept the common abbreviation for those names, making you say/write the whole thing every time.

Yes Jonathan, I do mean you.

I'm reviving this thread especially for malumbu!

Thanks for reminding me of it, mal!

Now you'll probably have irrational rage because you couldn't find the thread.

I just did a search for irrational 🤣

Not being able to find old threads on this site.....

Well worth a trawl back thought the posts.  Very entertaining.

My two'penneth worth today, constant rain and South London clay soil.

Flower pot sizes. Even ones that look as if they should fit together don't .

Same with the saucers that go underneath them.

Why aren't they standardised? GRRRRR.

I made the mistake of starting to clear out my loft (I still have a pre-gentrification type loft).

Now my (pre-gentrification type) kitchen is filled with zillions of flower pots and saucers.

I am so irrationally enraged that I need to sit down with a nice cup of tea.

I've just put the kettle on.

Plastic flower pots full stop, have so many of them and most go into the recycling rather than being reused.

Can they be recycled? I didn't know that.

I've tried to give them away in the past.

One community garden took a load one year, but I haven't had much luck otherwise.

People are probably trying to get rid of their own 🤣

"In Southwark, you can recycle plastic plant pots at home in your main recycling bin, provided they are not black, as black plastic is often not detected by recycling machinery. Clean, rigid plastic pots (tubs/trays) are accepted, but soft plastic pots should be taken to a local supermarket drop-off point"
