Random Irritations

Head colds. Not ill just can't stop sneezing and nose is like a dripping tap. I've got 2 days of new system training ahead so that will please everyone else in the room!

I wasn't aware that the button CLOSED the doors as well as open them! :confused: Thought that was the guard's job! :D

It's the button that says close, directly below the one that says open. ;)

The train was sat in the station for about 20 minutes prior to departure & everyone that got on just left them open in freezing conditions. One bloke even opened them & then stood outside carrying on his conversation. :rolleyes:

Back to one of my hobby horses. I got an email advertising tickets for London theatre tickets. Seats in the stalls for the Lion King, admittedly the best views, £289 per ticket, so for the cost of hid and me taking 2 grandchildren I could probably buy a real giraffe!

It's scandalous the price of tickets, I looked yesterday for tickets to take Mrs Wolf, my oldest daughter and her boyfriend to see the Harry Potter Cursed child play in London as they love Harry Potter thought it'd be nice Christmas present until the only available tickets came up at £259 each... I'd rather buy her a car to run around in for the same total cost....
 
Me :)

Now that Mrs SILH has retired and is at home much of the day she finds that my presence in the house very irritating as I get in the way...

And so I am shoo'd out to our garden studio were I work (loose description of what i do in our studio) - unless she finds something for me to do. At which point I get irritated as I am supposed to be working :)

Could be worse, she could join the forum.
 
Mrs Wolf being away on a course all day today and overnight, that's not the irritation though, her course is at Formby golf club include full slap up overnight stay which I was able to go along and be part of including a free round of golf courtesy of her company. The irritating part is I couldn't get 2 days off work to go and enjoy it gratis. Would have most enjoyed that very much..

Problem is, there are mugs that will pay for it. It would be interesting to see if everybody felt the same and said sod that, whether the theatres/gig venues/holiday companies would have to start bring down the cost once they realised that they can't continue taking the p*ss out of us with some of their costs - it'll never happen as people will still pay for it even though it's a rip off

I agree all the while people pay it they'll charge it. But I won't be paying that when you consider the other costs as well that would have to factor in travel in and out of London, drinks and dinner etc for a day out for 4 of us that would be well in excess of £1500 absolutely ridiculous
