Just seeing the word "vintage", whether used "correctly" or not, now causes me irrational rage :))

If you have come from the street, throught the lobby, through security, and up 6 floors, then 50 yards down a wide open office and you STILL have your headphones so loud you can be heard 20 yards away... then you my friend, are a grade A tosser
When you get to the office, make sure your security pass is safely tucked away somewhere right at the bottom of your oversized handbag. And whatever you do, don't try to remove it before you get to the door. That way you can block the entrance for everyone else while you rummage around through your purse, hankies, make-up, magazines, bills, receipts, chocolate bars and whatnot...

This also applies to the supermarket checkout. Don't think of looking for your purse until all the items have been scanned and do not even dream of beginning to pack away your items until you have put your card back in said purse, folded the fucking receipt and put that away in a separate niche and replaced purse in bag. If you can somehow contrive, in the middle of all this, to walk away for a minute or six with a vague mumble about "Ooh, anchovies..." then so much the better.


And if you are under 30 please don't think of paying for a sandwich or a coke or a bottle of water with anything other than plastic. Cash!?!? The very idea!

Ditto those with an Oyster card blocking the entrance to the gates at the station, or holding the bus up, after you've been seen standing at the stop waiting for 10 minutes but didn't have the nous to get it out whilst you were waiting.

People who leave the receipt from their train ticket purchase in the machine. Who do they think should move it, if not them?

When queueing, the person behind who decides to get closer to you but at an angle in an attempt, albeit subconsciously, to progress quicker through the queue.

Xactly. Now, I haven't looked inside the book, but I imagine there might be poetry or chanting...

Those silly frikkin MBT shoes or whatever they're called


I mean come on, every time I see them on a pair of feet, I feel compeled to look at the arse.


And guess what, it generally ain't looking any better for it.

    • Nothing to do with the topic of this thread, but I have to say, I think it is quite untrue that people don't make human contact in cities. Just locally, there are street parties, road WhatsApp groups, one street I know near here hires a coach and everyone in the street goes to the seaside every year! There are lots of neighbourhood groups on Facebook, where people look out for each other and help each other. In my experience people chat to strangers on public transport, in shops, waiting in queues etc. To the best of my knowledge the forum does not need donations to keep it going. It contains paid ads, which hopefully helps Joe,  the very excellent admin,  to keep it up and running. And as for a house being broken into, that could happen anywhere. I knew a village in Devon where a whole row of houses was burgled one night in the eighties.
    • We went to Chern Thai for lunch on Saturday, as we have done quite often, and they were closed, with no sign of life. The sign in the window still says Saturday 12-3, and there was no indication that they would be closed. Can anybody shed any light? We went to Chilli and Garlic on Zenoria Street instead. Their falafel salad bowl is amazing (and amazing value!) but we had been looking forward to a Pad Thai and a pint of Singha! ETA: I am reviving this thread because it is/was  specifically about Chern Thai's opening times! 
    • Wow, they didn't hang around after getting their licence approved.
