Random Irritations

[srixon 1]

Away in Wales with HID for the long weekend. Sat outside at a bar on the seafront at Penarth having a quiet beer. Woman at next table decides to have a FaceTime chat with her daughter for 15 mins. I don’t need to know that you have loads of washing to put in your machine when you get home tomorrow. We move to a different table which is still outside but near the bar. I am then subjected to a conversation between the gay barman and another member of staff about the gay barman’s love life ???

Likewise the fees she probably has to pay the venues for holding a concert there arent cheap and have probably increased, along with her support staff etc.
As with all things internet, everyone wants it for next to nothng, yet complain if their boss asks the same of them.

Bless her

Coldplay £302 a ticket at the Etihad.

I’d happily pay that to avoid watching them ?

That’s a lot to listen to the same song for two hours.

I like them,but that’s just stupid money imo.
I prefer watching less known artists now at a reasonable price.

Whilst folks keep paying those inflated prices the acts will keep charging them.

Someone I know tried to get Coldplay tickets for next years gig in Cardiff.
They tried via Ticket Master, I think it's called, and were 245,000th in the queue!
WHAT .................... no thanks.

eBay, why do you now have to upload photo ID to get payouts ???

I'd be very happy to be 245,000 in a queue for Coldplay

I was in the queue for less than 5 mins. €80 in Coimbra, northern Portugal in May

To be fair Brian, I would wander down to the local pub if they were playing there but I wouldn't maybe go to the village further on ?

My daughter few days ago said to me, " Went to see Coldplay few days ago"
I said, " what's that then"
"The group ". she said, exasperatedly.

Ignorance is bliss, methinks?

The latest Test Match was only the latest example of this pointless and irritating practice. The professional singer performs (butchers) the anthem, inserting their own particular and peculiar vocal quirks. Much worse, the broadcaster uses this to drown out the supporters passionate and genuine effort to enthuse their team. Why????
Don't get me started on the bloody "Barmy Army".

Whats wrong with them?
They go everywhere the England cricket team, providing support and never any trouble.
I think they are a fine example of national team supporting fans, for home and away.

I've never liked those posts.
If someone wants to make the post then just make the salient points. I don't want to be dragged in to a link to read chapter and verse!
