Random Irritations

The singing, the ham acting, the forced happiness.

Mark Kermode, film critic, states that there is an inverse relationship between the amount of fun actors have on a film set compared to the amount of fun the viewer has watching it. The cast of Mama Mia look like they had a blast!

Well, I am quite looking forward to herself getting to see Mamma Mia2 as, along with Alexa, getting pretty fed up with Greatest Showman being on repeat :(…

That explains a hell of a lot about the last version of Murder on the Orient Express, the cast of which also had a blast.
 
That's the spirit :D

I reckon most of the posts on this thread have been made by the over-weight members of the forum. So we need some thinners ….

OK reaching the bottom of the pot now so trying to make every stroke count.

This video. I love Casey but Logan Paul is an absolute moron. Says nothing of value, constantly refers to himself in the third-person in the most cringeworthy way, he's such a terrible person. The fact so many young kids look up to this twit is incredibly worrying.

I haven't had one yet...but just in case.
So far today in my utility room I have put up three wall units, and three standing units without a glitch.


Stopped for a spag. bol and glass of very nice Chilean wine with only one standing unit and new worktop to go.

Bound to end in tears.:whistle:
 
Motor insurance and insurance companies.

At one stage last year I had more points than Everton did after 10 games :whistle: Some points have come off yet the insurance company still want to recognise them and charge me accordingly.....robbing fekirs
 
Punctuality or lack of. I run a dog training group on Thursday mornings. A new recruit with her Dalmatian has rolled up 15/20 minutes or so late on her first three sessions. This matters because there is a considered sequence to the exercises which starts with relaxation and then requires increasing concentration and application from dog and handler. On the second and third occasions I have politely suggested that starting on time would be good.If it happens again next week I am tempted to tell her not to bother coming back.

People who have accidents on holiday and then their families start crying and whingeing to national newspapers about raising funds for their hospital treatment or to bring them home.

IT'S CALLED HOLIDAY INSURANCE.
 
Due to road closures... Having [seemingly] 30mins added to any journey so some MIGHT, at sometime in the distant future, save 20mins on their journey...

More than had enough of this detour... Even on a wet [quiet] Sunday morning 20mins added to my journey...
And, with several more years of similar disruptions to look forward to...

3 seperate sets of road works on single lane road about 2 miles apart. No working, no holes etc, but massive queues

We have this on the main road through the estate..
Fixing a burst pipe, big hole dug on the grass verge, a minimum of 4 feet from the road.
Bollards and traffic lights all weekend when there's nothing being done. Taken the bollards down, move the lights and there's non-issue.
Put them back on Monday ( or whenever) when they restart work.
Unnecessary delays..
Can't wait till HS2 gets here.
It's going to cut 3 major roads around town and cause traffic carnage for months.
Deep joy
