Trumps anti dumping laws … should not be my problem but I am being dragged in to give information about components we are sending in.
Apparently a full on engineering drawing with all specifications and certification details is not suitable, they want photos… we can clear wrap the lot and dump some nasty plastic and they can look at them!

There is a lot of unnecessary words here

Just drop the S in the first word and the rest isn't needed

Why was the Mayflower a sea worthy boat?
Can you imagine “what if” they had never landed ?
Would we have a really nice indigenous nation of Native Americans and the tribal mix across their continent

We are so responsible for so much silliness ☹️🫣

Bushy eyebrows. Mine have taken on a life of their own and suddenly decided to grow in all directions. I can now, annoyingly, see them out of the corner of my eye. Words will be had and scissors will be needed.

Had that all my life. End up going to the barbers when my eyebrows need a good trim as opposed to based purely on when my hair needs cutting

That wouldn't have stopped the Germans from invading emigrating as they did. Might have been even worse.

A female work colleague gave me a birthday card years ago with this little rhyme inside

You know that things are going bad, in fact they're turning rotten,
When hair is falling from your head, but growing on your bottom.

But lets not go there!

Made the mistake last night after taking Rupert to the vet, We decided to get a Ken Tuckey on the way home as we had to pass. Jesus the price had doubled since we last had one and all the chicken was tiny. TBH it was more like Kentucky Fried Pigeon.

Some years ago my Mrs told me to get my eyebrows trimmed when getting my hair cut, I did and I have had the same done every time. I suspect that she remembers well be late dad's eyebrows...well I certainly do.

Agreed. Don't like the chips now either
Forced to have McDonald’s last night due to A&E / out of hour’s doctors appointments etc … something totally wrong with the system will get stressed more if they carry on building houses and not forcing in the developer to build surgeries etc .. another irritation

Wife said her burger was bland and chips were not salty or crispy like they were in the past and this health rush was really making junk food rubbish 🤭

I suppose it’s like diluting whiskey down because it makes people drunk …

We have got to the point where self control doesn’t exist and now we need to be controlled… by the do gooder population of grey cardboard people

I have no problems after ‘first straightening’ on waking. Even then it’s just a feeling they are stuck…they aren’t - they are just a bit painful of straightening and feel they could get properly ‘stuck’. It do need to have it seen to.
As suggested...I have had a steroid injection for each finger that feels gets stuck - and after only ten days I can feel a huge difference.

Now?? Homer just no

The chips now are passable before they were bloody awful


Like golf its all about the takeaway

See the trouble with fast food fries is… their closeness in the bag to the meat. The chicken (being hotter than a burger) makes the kfc fries soggier and softer quicker than a McD’s would sitting next to a burger, they both start life pretty much the same

I have a formula to prove this theory, if anyone wants it then PM your bank details (y)

I dont agree with homer on many things but i do on this one. The Chips were bogging, brown soggy funny tasting things, almost coated with something and the Potatoes were not peeled either. give me the old ones any day. mind we won't be rushing back anyway :ROFLMAO:
