eBay buyers who first contact you 5 days after the auction finishes having not sent payment saying "can you please wait a few more days for payment? I'm having issues with my Paypal account..." when what they actually mean is "I haven't got any money". 'Private' feedback as well with this one. Grrrrr.

Re: Victoria Coren and David Mitchell, yes I can see how breakfast conversation would be annoying. But individually I like 'em.


Today though: people who drive past you, without acknowledging the fact you've pulled in, and waited an aeon for them to be able to get their massive 4x4 down Dunstans (or any in ED for that matter) Rd. That really gets on my pip.

Manners, innit. Not feeling very kindly towards the woman on the bus who just yawned into my face from about a foot away five or six times without bothering to cover her mouth. The roots of my hair are still standing up.

Well if people gave their seat up for pregnant women on public transport, these probably wouldn't be necessary. And at least it saves the more rotund amongst us from being mistaken for being pregnant and having a seat offered to us!

Talking of trains, it's as well I'm leaving soon else I might have ended up clubbing someone to death for not moving down the carriage when they have masses of room whilst others are being crushed to death.


This morning's tosser looked up, then tutted and sunk his head into his hood whilst blocking the aisle stopping anyone else from shuyffling past him.


GGGGNNNGNGNGNGN if I'd had LadyD's AK!!!!!!!!!!


That's pretty rational rage though I guess...

Occasionally I get emails from a dating site I used a couple of years back, the kind with potential matches. Looked at one recently and it was an ex-partner. Judging by the surge of anger I may still have some work to do on that.


The system said we're 92% compatible. May explain the other people I met through the site.

Any bar/club/restaurant with full width mirror above a row of urinals without dividers. You not only get a great view of your own knob, but everyone elses.... in stereo. To cap the effect, little flecks of piss spray the mirror glass, distorting everyones knob. You can stare at the ceiling but risk serious backsplash. Design over function really hurts.

    • Fair enough point, but does that not in a way make it even worse if they open a shop almost directly  opposite another "family" business selling exactly the same type of products?
    • As Occado source from Waitrose, and were their only deliverer at one stage, and as Waitrose do now deliver it may be they feel their reach in ED is sufficient to mean having a local outlet would not gain them sufficient additional sales to be cost effective. The movement to delivery rather than physical shopping during Covid has I believe substantially changed the grocery economics. So it may be that the High Street dynamic for physical shops has now changed. 
    • ..... thinking about the discussion about Chango.  Their "About us" blurb on the website says started by one Argentina guy.  So if one person has a successful business and goes on to open a number of shops when do they go from a supported successful "family" business to a less liked "chain"?  
    • I used to buy a brand of olive oil called 'Il Casolare'. It was unfiltered, often on offer in Sainsbury's and came in a really nice bottle with a stopper. When it was finished, I'd soak the label off, fill it with Morrison's own-brand vermouth and use it for cooking as it lasts longer than keeping wine open. One night there was very little else left to drink, so we got into it - I told people it was a difficult to find artisanal brand I'd brought back from Barcelona and that it should be pronounced 'Vermut'. People loved it. I gave away a couple of bottles as Christmas presents the next year.
