Poxy toasters.

That's the 3rd one gone rogue in less than 12 months.

You do realise that you should only butter the toast after it comes out of the toaster

But your toaster is a 2-slice model.

I partake of 3 slices before the day's travails

Ah.

I have 2 slices and a bowl of cereal, usually Alpen (and 4 cups of espresso) to start my day. Generally keeps hunger locked up until lunch.

Fuck! There's me thinking my two cups of coffee to begin functioning was excessive.

I had the best cup of coffee in my life in Holborn last week, fucking brilliant, I felt like I was off my face after one espresso and a latte. AND the staff at the cafe held onto my wallet when I left it behind and didn't nick the £80 in cash I had in there! AMAZING!

I don't actually NEED 4 cups of espresso to function, but we have some really nice espresso beans so I enjoy at least 2 cups (probably 3 on average in all honesty) whilst I have breakfast etc.

I think I'd hover to work if I had 4 espressos in the morning.

I got asked if I was on cocaine last week. Apparently I was "sniffing a lot".

I HAVE A FUCKING COLD.

Wouldn"t it be bread and butter otherwise ?

Oxfordshire is just as bad. Closing the A417 for two months is dumb

Got caught in the Drakes Way debacle today.
Dont usually go that way so cant say if any advance warning boards up but lots caught out.
The mrs turned up Drakes from greenbridge and then got funnelled with everyone else into the retail park which ended rammed.
Took her ages to get out of there - she cheated and turned left by Matalan and thru the Shrivvy road bus only route in the end.
Her and many others

The roads nationwide are a fucking joke nowadays. Our little island is over populated with way to many cars on the road. Too many arseholes in a lot of them.
I despise driving now and am planning ahead to scrap driving altogether eventually.
The government are happy to take the income from the roads and standards are getting worse and worse with drivers becoming increasingly more selfish.
Not going to get any better, in fact will continue to deteriorate further. I get cut up every day and often a by a few times.

Some young bird span out in front of me recently on the a417 just outside faringdon, Driving to quickly on a bend. If I had been a split second later she would have hit me head on. her car ended up on its side in a ditch facing away from where she was coming from with me having to get her out of it. I had no idea who was in that car as I approached it and expected the worse. The single occupant was miraculously apart from in shock, uninjured.
Not a situation I want to repeat.
My point is people drive to quickly and society generally is in a rush all the time with not a care of their consequences.

Exactly right arriba.....autogeddion.

I was walking down Devizes Road about 3:30 this afternoon, and the traffic was pretty much stacked up and it's not even a school day....moving but slowly, and I somewhat absent-mindedly, started to look at which drivers were wearing seat belts,  tbf, the majority were, but in a sample of maybe 30 or so cars there were about 5 without...mad.
