Every single bloody one of them, some of them more than once.



In my opinion weather patterns have shifted about 2 months we seem to get July/august weather in September and October most years now


The weather is unpredictable, in my opinion.

Eye bloody infection.

Couldn't do anything, even play around with the laptop as it was so bright.

NHS and their stupid computer systems

got a text from my local surgery saying you are eligible for a flu & Covid jab here's the link to book it. Click on the link it wants my date of birth so put that in and get toll no slots available for any of the next 3 months :evil:

So I'm eligible on medical grounds but the NHS booking system only checks your age and as I'm not 65 it won't allow me to book

Go onto the government website and you can book direct.

Loads of chemists and shops offering the jabs.

Smelly punters.

Rip off charges.

Car insurance charging £45 for a change of address, 400 yards up the road.

Plumber charging £140 to knock on your door.

Wolverhampton plated Uber parked on the pavement outside your house.

Her indoors expecting everything to be done now…
