Self-service checkouts seemingly always giving you change in the lowest denomination possible.

Nothing wrong with Brucie. Sure he's a bit dithery these days, but at 83 its understandable. He's had 54 years on TV.

Plus he's bagged both the 1964 and 1975 Miss World back in the day. Married the latter.

Agreed. Brucie is the boss. Was it C4 that screened a documentary about him not long ago?

Although I am convinced that the BBC are no longer allowed to retire him and that he'll die on-screen.

BT, useless wankers.

They have 'upgraded' our broadband connection, and it is now so slow that I can't even run the speed test on the BT site.

When you phone the helpdesk, they just give you some bullshit about re-profiling your connection, and then it will all be ok after another 10 days.

Lying fuckers.

They still have more personality than some of the checkout staff that have served me. Oh, and they don't ask me what I've been up to today.   Smiley

Buying a newspaper from WH Smith and then having the sales person try to flog you chocolate or water for a £1.00, if I wanted chocolate I would have asked for it...

That silly white blob on the shoulder of the West Ham shirt...wtf is it?

Queuing. Being asked if I want a carrier bag (no I'm going to balance it on my head until I get to the car).

Do you have a blah blah card? - no
Do you want cash back - no
Would you like a blah blah card - no

And!! Why do they leave that bloody conveyer belt running whilst you try and pack, your food ends up like it's been in a tumble dryer.

I like shopping  Smiley

This. Today I bought something for around £3, gave the machine a £10 note and got 3 pound coins and the rest in 50p's and 20p's.

This was how I spent my day off today. Chiropractor's appointment, then on to Boots for an eye test followed by a Dentist appointment whereby it was discovered that I had fractured a root canal under a crown and now the fucking lot has to come out.

Superb.

Timewasters on ebay.  Sold a multi gym on behalf of my parents on Sunday.  Winning bidder contacted me on Monday asking for phone number to arrange collection and could they pay cash on collection.  Provided phone no and they emailed me yesterday saying they'd phone last night or this morning and collect today.  No phone call.  If they don't want it just fucking say instead of dragging it out, so I can see if the next highest bidder wants it.  The worst of it is that I won't even be able to leave negative feedback because they're the buyer.
