Cant remember ever eating a pear. Why do you all bother when there are bananas and apples out there.

Apples are usually similarly rock hard.

Spent about 800 quid on a nectar mattress last year and it's the worst mattress I've ever had its definitely memory foam because it doesn't fucking forget where you've been lying so now it's permanently got dips in it. I'll never ever buy a memory foam mattress again.

We bought a sealy one 2 years ago. After 6 months it started to dip like fuck so we actually got another one on warranty, the second one is even worse. Total shite. The mattress cost 1500 alone, so hardly some mickey mouse change. When I change it, which won't be long, I'll be buying a respa or king coil. Irish brands which I've had before which where excellent 

 

As good my moan of the day, nothing new. People not turning lights off, or more specific, everyone in my house besides me not turning them off. 

 

The mother in law is up this weekend and staying with us, I was watching the boxing in the kitchen last night while they where watching some shite. I went in to get something and they had two lamps on, the main light and also two up lighters on the wall. So all in all, they had 5 different lights on in the one room. And the funny thing is, her mam used her bus pass to visit us instead of wasting petrol. Yeah, but no bother leaving every light in the fucking house on. Where do these dopes think energy comes from. 

 

And I've just had time edit this, she's just come down the stairs and announced there's a weird noise on the bathroom. I went up to check and she had left the shower on........

People who enjoy their own surprise party’s. I got dragged to the wife’s, nephew’s, wife’s fortieth last night.

 

I spend the whole afternoon telling the wife that surprise party’s are a terrible idea and the person being surprised always hates it, even though they pretend not to. I shared this with all the people waiting to surprise her as well.

 

She fucking loved it. I couldn’t detect even a trace of acting and I kept a close eye on her (yes I would) all night. 
 

I’m still annoyed now.

We've got a caspar mattress. Easily the best sleep I've had. About 2 years with it and no problems. Just need to turn it every month or so and it's still as good as new.

My house is rife for that. Upstairs lights constantly left on, lamps on in the middle of the day, bathroom light and extractor on after someone went for a piss 40 minutes ago etc

 

The heating is another one as well. It's on when we go to bed, why? We're under our warm duvets. It doesn't stop Mrs D needing a hot water bottle anyway and costing more money using the kettle. 

 

We paid for Hive to help us save money, but now she doesn't even have to walk to the kitchen to put the heating up I'm convinced it's doubled our usage.

I'll admit I'm turning into a grumpy middle aged fuck, but regardless of my grumpiness, why the fuck would you leave a light on in a room you're not in..... Even as a kid I wouldnt leave lights on. 

 

It's not rocket science, one walks into room, one turns light on. One then leaves room, one turns lights off. 

 

And I've had my missus being all smart this week. "oh, can you mooch some wood in work and we'll stock up on free wood over the summer", but yurt next minute she's racking up an energy bill aiken to new York City.....

Film lids on ready meals that don’t peel off at all or just disintegrate and take about 15 minutes to pick all the bits off. 
I can grudgingly understand it with a proper cheapy one but when I’m paying 4 quid for a ‘finest’ one, it’s beyond the pale.

There's some helpful advice on the packaging: "remove film lid".

That never occurred to me actually, I normally use a steak knife to saw through the bottom of the package but I’ll try the lid.

 

I’m meaning the film lid, you strapon - my gripe is with the quality of the film lids and how they don’t peel off cleanly.

My mates got a Purple 4. You sleep as soon as you touch it.

Why is the word 'yacht' spelt that way when it's pronounced yot!? Yacht doesnt even look like it would sound like 'yot' anyway. Fucking stupid grammar!

 

And while Im at it, Sky Planner. What the fuck's going on? Set it to record Illegal Alien at 9pm on Thursdays and the fucking thing is recording any episode at 2am, 7pm on other days as well as the time I want!

Removing those bastards is like taking the cap off the Chernobyl reactor. Bubbling hot food and steam ready to remove the skin from your fingers, and you can't really wear gloves because it would make an awkward job even worse.

It does say leave for one minute after cooking which might help but only serial killers wait.

That just gives the steam time to plan its assault.

Serves you right for recording Illegal Alien in the first place.

Haha. Well the first series had some guffaw moments, less so the 2nd series!

Salted Caramel,fuck you! Right up there with pineapples on a pizza. Fuckin animals.

[Carvalho Diablo]

Just seen that telly advert where the family supposedly has air traffic control set up in their living room to land a jumbo jet.

 

"Hi, I'm Kevin Bacon..."

 

Fucking fuck the fucking fuck right off. Do I look like a cunt or what?

 

EE should have their licence taken off them and Kevin fucking Bacon should have his assets seized and his bollocks battered black and blue with a cricket bat.

[Preston Red]

Avatars on FaceAIDS and the stupid fucking picture tiles that people use when posting their mundane shite.

When you right click on an e-mail address to copy it & a new e-mail to that address opens up in Outlook.
