Random Irritations

Mog1 sleeping inthe middle of the bed. Fine, I can live with that. 4 o clock in the morning deciding that the bestest ever thing in the world is to stuff his very wet nose into my eyeball, not so much. Repeated attempts over the next 15 minutes wears thin. Little pita.
 
Roofers, whenever it's wet it's too wet to finish my roof

Whenever it's nice weather they are nowhere to be seen

Finish my job please it's apparently 4 hours work so do that then your done.
 
The guy at work we call Jackanory for obvious reasons and his life stories.. Today's was his mate who's 28yrs old and lives in Nottingham has just left the Army as the highest rank in the whole of the Army leaving because even though he was the top man was only earning £17,000 despite having thousands of people supposedly below him that he was responsible for 🙄

We literally get a new story off him each day, yesterday's one was how he drove his car at 150mph through speed cameras without getting flashed.. For the record he drives a fiat punto😂

Everyone has a mate like that! We call ours TwoSh! ts. Because if you have had one, he has had two!

Also, he goes on holiday to Elevenerife. Its one better than Tenerife...
 
Smart devices.

Had a tricky problem, the wife decided after we refitted the kitchen she wanted island lights.. i had power close by, but no way of switching as the room was finished and i didnt want to chase any new cables in. Decided to whip the extractor down and install an smart plug, voice activated to switch on and off! It has worked brilliantly for 3 months now! Until today, it has decided to stop working, so i need to reboot it. Its off a switched fused spur, so easy right! no. the plug then requires you to hold the button on it to re-pair. Great, its in the fcuking ceiling.....
 
Hailstones, at least half an inch across. Dread to think what the car body work and windscreen look like. Lasted about half an hour, and then came the thunder and lightning. decided not to walk into the village for the usual Friday tea time beer with mi amigos.
 
Watford. It's the car insurance claim capital of the UK, apparently. So I drive every day from Watford to North London and back every day. North London is like the Wild West, no rules, do what you like, and then I go home to somewhere worse on paper. Lovely.
 
Falling over and breaking the phone I’ve only just paid £200 to have fixed 😡😡😡
