Random Irritations

After quite a bit of hassle and time to get an original pressing of Wish You Were Here delivered (poor, poor comms from the seller with a dash of downright lies)... turns out my "mint" copy has some pretty bad surface noise across, ooohhh 90% of the tracks.
Welcome to the Machine has so many clicks and pops one might think they are meant to be there. So after about 2 weeks of trying to get the thing delivered, I now need to return it and try and get a refund... This could be fun!

Still, on the bright side, another copy has become available for £30 less. Let's hope that one is as "mint" as it has been graded.
 
Social Experiments... aaarrggghhh just get a proper job!

If you really want to set up messed up scenario and film it to see how the public react then have the decency to pay them afterwards for being your test bunnies
 
Two phone calls one of 20 minutes and one of 30 minutes just to change a delivery date with Currys for an online purchase.

Waited in all day and nobody turned up. Letter received the day after saying the delivery date had been changed by them.

What is the point of having an online process if you are not going to have it all online.
 
My wife has just noticed that she has lost the diamond from her engagement ring. If our insurance does not cover this then it will be an irritating thing to replace, grumbles, better things to spend money on................

For YOUR sake, I’d suggest you’ve got nothing better to spend money on. ;):)

Ha ha, I know. I'm thinking of all of those golf trips I could do, the replacement irons I could get but they are selfish thoughts. I do well out of my golf so if that is where the money goes this time, so be it. (It's only a ring though, come on, it can't knock a ball down the middle of the fairway with a hint of draw :ROFLMAO:)

To be fair, if she lost it, she should pay for the replacement.
However, a divorce would cost you a lot more
 
Parcelforce. Missed a delivery so looked at the options. Will they leave it in a safe place, no. Will they leave it with a neighbour, no. OK, what can I do then, you can have it delivered any weekday in working hours. But I work so that is no use. OK, you can have it delivered on a Saturday, that will cost you £12.00. That is a bit steep, what else can I do. You can choose another address but that will cost you £6.00. Anything else, you can pay the £6.00 plus a £1.00 admin fee and we can deliver it to a post offer. So, basically, if you work normal working hours, there is no way of getting a parcel force package delivered without paying them more money,

Irritating for you or for her? o_O
 
Veganism.
Apparently if you live your life as a vegan but ride a horse, even it it's not with a leather saddle, you're not a vegan because you're exploiting the horse for your own enjoyment.
Apparently you have to walk alongside the horse ................................ bonkers mental!!
