Latest Moan From You and Me 2024

I hope they have insurance.

 

People don't care any more!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

I'd pay to see that too @Clueless 1 v2 . What is wrong with these self entitled morons?
I have a little 'thing' I do when describing that kind of thing to other people - usually my poor daughters! A dismissive flick of the hands, a 'nyeah' type of vocal after saying 'ach, these rules are for other folk - the plebs. Certainly not me'.
They remind me of a programme I saw decades ago. There was a bloke - travelling rep. of some kind. His car was a something or other with that 'I' after it - CDI or similar. He said, completely straight faced, "I drive a blah blah I. That's I for important. "
You can imagine what my hubby and I said at that point...

 

I , for idiot?

 

I think that would have been far more accurate @RowlandsCastle. Complete clown.

Just saw your comment @shiney . Brilliant!

 

I went to the farmers auction once with my dad. There was all sorts there. Baby chickens, adult cows, building materials, tools, and equipment ranging from the likes of an old spade to massive JCB and Massey Ferguson tractors and such out front.

An announcement came over the PA system. Can the owner of the silver whatever it is please move their car as it's blocking the side access.

About ten minutes passed. Another announcement, polite and formal like the previous one. Everyone just carried on as normal.

Another ten minutes or so passed. This time the announcement was more along the lines of, if the owner of the silver car that's blocking the side entrance would kindly look outside, they would see a MASSIVE Massey Ferguson tractor bigger than a house, which would effortlessly move any stray cars. You have five minutes.

 

At airshows they always tannoy about a mini or other small car that is parked in the wrong place. A bit later a helicopter appears in the sky with the car dangling, and then drops it. I love the crowds reaction!

 

Sent hubby up the post office yesterday to send a small parcel using their new Tracked 24 service. He got fobbed off and ended up with no tracking and just £20 compensation. So I had to go in and get to the bottom of this. There were no other customers in there - ideal. So I spoke to a different lady, who said they have just had an internal email to say it may go live on 11th June. So bear that in mind. Also the compensation limit for signed has dropped from £50 to £20. Getting a bit stingy then on the old compensation......

 

Looks like it would set off OH's dizzies. He has astigmatism and can't cope with certain patterns as I discovered when I bought some herringbone fabric to line a Harris tweed coat I was making for him. It was alright once made and hidden on the inside but not when laid on the dining table to be cut out. Made him go all unnecessary.

 

Anyway, I have a history of prostate problems, but you dont need to know that.

I was having problems back in summer 2022 and eventually my GP referred me to the hospital around December 22, I got a phone call about January 23 and and was asked some questions and told I wasn't urgent and would get an appointment in a few months .
Heard nothing for the whole of 23 after that call.

Got a call from my GPs surgery a couple of months ago, we have chased up the hospital and you should get an appointment soon, finally got one for the 26th April 24, which they then cancelled and sent me one for 10 May.

I've cancelled it now as I'm sure I would be dead by now if it was anything important, I've basically given up with the NHS, it just doesn't work.

I thinking about what to have written on my tombstone, and they could well get a mention.

 

Having been through the procedure a few times before, I find it "bloody" painful literally, although they say it painless, the fact the hospital is almost unreachable by car, and then when you get there you cant park, I'm only going to that Sh... hole when I really have to.

 

Now you listen to Auntie Noisette, young man Get yourself checked out! Got quite enough to worry about without you getting any nasties.....
