The fact I've just been able to eat my home-made "soup" with a fork suggests to me I may have gone a touch too heavy on the "thick and chunky" aspect of it.

Why be mildly annoyed? Just rebrand it as warming winter stew. Yum.

Well that's what I did. But I'd been looking forward to a soup. I was only very mildly annoyed, to be fair

You could have added stock.

The food, or the consumer?

Bit of both. I was well suited to my lunch, let's put it that way  pauld- putting the trivial back into the "trivial things" thread.

Speaking of stew (and soup) I made a lamb stew this morning and once it was cooked spontaneously decided to turn it into a Mulligatawny curry soup thing. I'm most pleased with it.

You crazy wild thing, you. It's people like you that have brought this country to its knees.

Public transport is awesome.
Waiting around for it in the winter is not.

Train conductors, as with bus drivers, seem to go one of two ways; really nice people, or complete jobsworths.
I've never understood the bus driver who sees someone running for their bus, towards them, and pulls off a second or two before they get there. Their job is to drive a bus and pick passengers up. I'm sure they have a timetable to stick to but is waiting for 10 seconds and making someones day better really that taxing?
It happened to me once, but the bus pulled away and about 10 metres later got stuck in traffic, Inbetweeners bus wanker style.
This is one of my pet hates too. I could understand it a bit more if they just did it to young people with the appearance of hoodlums, but I've seen them do it to respectable-looking middle-aged types. Perhaps they see it as a perk of the job?

Their job must be boring as fuck to be fair, sure they just do it to amuse themselves. I certainly would.

I know I would. I'd make a game of it and award myself points for things like how close they get and how far they run.
