pips_pekins Posted October 4, 2011 Share Posted October 4, 2011 The ones I dislike the most are the bosoms that have been pummelled, cajoled and bullied into those highly technological bras that leave the woman looking like she's strapped a baby's bottom to her front. For some reason I missed this post until today. Patsylabrador, your post made me laugh out loud; just what I needed as have been feeling very sorry for myself today.

The Dogmother Posted October 4, 2011 Share Posted October 4, 2011 Dog poo bags thrown up in trees What is that about? They just can't be bothered to carry it with them to the next bin Worse are the dog owners who pretend they can't see their dog is pooing even though it is on a lead right next to them simply because they can't be bothered to pick it up I would also put in there: .............. people who spit people who sneeze/cough all over me without attempting to put their hand in front of their mouth.......................

Cinnamon Posted October 4, 2011 Author Share Posted October 4, 2011 people who sneeze/cough all over me without attempting to put their hand in front of their mouth Had one of them at my til today. Nice lady,about 40,well dressed,kept coughing RIGHT in my face (think Little Britain!) No attempt to turn her head or cover her mouth at all. I kept flinching - her husband noticed & told her to stop Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
snowberry Posted October 4, 2011 Share Posted October 4, 2011 I keep copious amounts of dog poo bags in all my pockets so that I don't get caught out, er, including work trousers; they stay in there even if the trousers are going through the wash. They come up beautiful When used though, they go in bins not trees; what is that about?!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sadietoo Posted October 4, 2011 Share Posted October 4, 2011 people who cosy in far too closely at the checkout so that whilst you are trying to pay they are right next to you! people who use "myself" when a simple "me" would do! National Rail...who knows whether you are paying through the nose for tickets or not - just too many choices? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lavenders_Blue Posted October 5, 2011 Share Posted October 5, 2011 people who use "myself" when a simple "me" would do! Agreed, why do people do this? I keep copious amounts of dog poo bags in all my pockets so that I don't get caught out, er, including work trousers; they stay in there even if the trousers are going through the wash. They come up beautiful When used though, they go in bins not trees; what is that about?!!! Dogmother posted a little while back about the Muksak, I think it's fab and it should be compulsory for every dog owner to have (and use!) one. Dog poo in trees is totally revolting!

sage Posted October 5, 2011 Share Posted October 5, 2011 Can I put my husband in. As I was rushing around like a blue ar**ed fly last evening I asked him I he would mind moving from the TV and get the washing in off the line before it got dark. I waited untill the adverts stared. At 9.30 I finished the first basket of ironing and couldn't find the other. OH was upstairs on PC so I shouted up. Got reply. " It's on the patio, you didn't say you wanted it bringing in just off the line" Sage Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goosey Lucy Posted October 5, 2011 Share Posted October 5, 2011 Uh oh Sage, I hope you gave him what for? I'd like to include Tax Returns please. And printers that won't sync with my 'pooter when OH isn't here but work perfectly when he is so I look like a complete numpty. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cinnamon Posted October 7, 2011 Author Share Posted October 7, 2011 Some of our neighbours can go in there too. 2 of them,who both live far enough away not to be able to see my house or garden from theirs,have got together up in arms about the area of waste land we have fenced off. First we had the local Estate manager round,who had been tipped off. Then we had a letter from the council saying that we had removed a fence,replaced it,& were burning the old one in our garden which caused a nuisance. it was in fact next door who had the bonfire,not us Then yesterday we had a letter from them demanding removal of the fence or they will start legal action against us. Small village,small minds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Dogmother Posted October 7, 2011 Share Posted October 7, 2011 I'd burn it - the only way of killing them off (and not getting them in your car) is to burn it. I'd hesitate to load it in my car TBH. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluekarin Posted October 7, 2011 Share Posted October 7, 2011 That is my worry too, but our garden is too small for a bonfire, plus I hate it when our neighbours have one, so I'd be loathe to do it myself. I think it'll be okay if we line the boot with cardboard packaging, which will be chucked. We can break it down enough that we could put it inside of boxes as well, so they wouldn't really touch the car. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PapaJuliet Posted October 7, 2011 Share Posted October 7, 2011 Whoever writes the PR for our local (professional) ice hockey team. Press releases are full of grammatical mistakes and they frequently mis-spell the names of our players. They've stopped answering when I point out the mis-spellt names on Twitter or Facebook. I have problems with people spelling my name incorrectly... even when it should be on the screen in front of them, i.e. they are replying to an email or emailing me from the company directory. I think it it unbelievably rude to mis-spell people's names... particularly when they are effectively your employees (i.e. the hockey players) PJ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
