I know excatly what you mean :)-D



stupid abbreviations annoy me ..... Mayo instead of Mayonaise ,and the use of ( sorry Cassius ) Air Con instead of Air Conditioning



and the use of the word Customers instead of Passengers



Also use of the word "Customer" in situations when you're not actually buying anything , I think the dole office have started using it , feckin idiots.


oh there was something else too .... can't remember it might come back to me in a minute .

The use of emoticons.

There are people I have repect for who use them, but are they not really just the devil's puntuation?

And not even the good devil implied in Rosemary's Baby, more like the shit one in To The Devil A Daughter.

If something is written and it's amusing, then we'll get it. If it's tongue in cheek, we might not. If it's obscure/esoteric/in-jokey then many may not get it.

Aaaand. Next post!

Why have something more irritating than canned laughter on a comedy, littering up perfectly good, or for that matter imperfect or lousy posts.

Let them stand or fall by their own merits. I know the pro arguement, that they can soften what might appear in the naked written word as sarcastic, rude offensive etc, that in a face to face interaction would be leavened by body language and greater explanation.

So this is a written medium, but through the written word we can to some extent form opinions about people, I've done so on other MBs, gone on to meet them and became friends with them.

Even some who use bastard emiticons.

I'm not sure I constantly take the piss, out of whom?

But why does anyone need to include cartoons in their sensibleish comment, personal insults and light hearted irony?


Eeerm, you twat.

You take the p1ss not out of individuals in a general and lighthearted sense...


I started using emocions after I litterally posted something like


"It's ridiculous to think that poeple have characteristics based on their nationality...apart from the French who are all ****"....and people thought I wasn't being serious ;-)

And worse, people who include PhD in their email address field, as part of their name.

Americans are the worst culprits.

But aren't they always :-S

A thing that gets on my tits are people who think they are not littering as they have put their rubbish on top of a post box or cabinet in the street. Where do you think its going to go?


Actually while we're at it, another pet hate is people who put water into an empty bottle of washing liquid or soap to make it last longer. FFS

    • I've been thinking about hosting a fun casino night and came across some interesting ideas. If anyone is looking for casino game hire, I found a great resource at mrpunter that seems to offer a variety of options. Renting a table or a complete set could really elevate the party atmosphere, and it sounds like a good way to add some excitement to gatherings. Plus, it’s nice to support local businesses while having a blast with friends! If anyone has more tips or experiences with this, I'd love to hear about them!
    • Danny re-tiled and generally cleaned up the roof tiles on our front bay in SE22 a few weeks ago. He was fairly priced, and although the scope of the work changed slightly (something we couldn't have foreseen before removing the existing tiles), the price remained the same for the job. He and a colleague worked hard for three days (one more than initially planned) through pretty grim weather. With anything unexpected, he came to me with solutions rather than problems. They were polite, courteous, and left the site as tidy as they could after cutting roof tiles in the driving rain!
    • Perhaps first leak was caused by a combination of faulty rendering and a hole in the felt so re-rendering was able to fix it. This course of action wouldn't solve your current problem, it does sound like a separate issue. His guarantee would only cover the rerendering not any hole in the felt. Sorry this isn't what you want to hear.
    • I can't speak about other places but as someone who uses Mind in Forest Hill, these small studios are having a boom due to increased working from home.  Now I can work two days a week at home, I can use them at lunch time or early evening, it is a short walk from home so I can get changed and shower at home (so the studio does not need a big changing room or showers like a traditional gym),  whereas before Covid it would have a  been weekend only thing for me. I asume there are many like me so they can make a small space finacially viable. I am biased but Mind is great, it is a very inclusive woman friendly space, classes are very reasonable for instructor led classes, (there are different packages but you can get 10 for £100 if you oay in advance) and the fact there are very few bells and whistles keeps it affordable.   I prefer smaller studios as you don't want big classes for pilates and yoga as you need instructors to be able to see everyone and assess and adjust form for safety.
