Random Irritations

Not sure if my tale is better or worse. Took Daisy out for her bedtime ablutions and the security light didn't come on so we were in darkness. Not sure if that's why but she had a huge poo and then seemed to tread in it! Tried to see if it was flat - it was...so then the sniff test on each paw to find out which one needed a good clean. I went to bed with the smell of dog poo stuck in my nasal hairs :poop:

i'd take the smell of DS over thinking you are covered in fleas all night:LOL:

The absolute moron giving it large firing a replica 9mm pistol with blanks from his balcony today in St Mary's Island, Chatham. Yes nobody would've got hurt but he caused hysteria, panic and fear to all those in the area. Meaning armed police had to intervene.

All so he could like like a "gangsta" to his social media followers ?

Can we put him forward for covid vaccine testing? It's a type of community service in a round about way
 
What a good way to end up getting shot by the Armed Response Team...
One trusts he is currently explaining to Her Majesty's Constabulary why he needs people to think he has a bigger dick than he actually has.....?
Make him go and sit in an ICU for a week...see how big he feels then....
Pond life..and that's being nice....

There is another video of the armed response team on scene, so I assume he is currently at her majesty pleasure. Absolute scum.

Would have been interesting if they'd frog marched him outside and got him on his knees. Meanwhile one of the ART switched to blanks and then summarily "executed " him.


Obviously they couldn't/wouldn't but it might make him think twice....

Wished the old bill had just shot him.

They would have if he had raised it towards them when they entered. But clearly by that point this self appointed "gangsta" had soiled himself and put the pistol down as coming face to face with an armed man is a lot harder than standing on your balcony giving it large and causing neighbours fear and panic.

Shocking statement, unless...... they were able to play Sting belting out the lyrics at full volume to their social distancing hit.... 'Don't Stand So close To Me' while carrying out your suggestion ;)

Had the 'copter around for quite a while this morning.
Personally, I would have loved it if they had rushed in, and accidently bumped him over the balcony.
Obviously not a poor man, living in the penthouse flat of that block, but obviously a tw@.

Wouldn't that have been a shame if he'd have gone over the edge.

Certainly not a poor man at all those flats start around 275k for the lower floors smaller ones and go up to around 475-500k for the upper floors. One of my old clients has penthouse in the adjacent tower it's bloody massive.

The talk going around social media is he was CEO of a record label.
I say "was";)

The BBC. They just exaggerate to meet their own agenda. This morning first thing the PPE delivery was "days late" and now it's "several days late".

Try ITV news - they'd likely start with several days late...:)

Besides - it is. And what arrived today is just under 25% of what was ordered and what we were told was arriving on Sunday. Irritatingly that is just fact - and so the BBC is correct. What is very irritating for some is how others are convinced that the BBC has an 'agenda' that in this context can only be anti-government - when in fact it's reporting of this might simply be observational. And in the current circumstances - and as we know - and without trying in any way to find someone to blame - days of delay in the context of Covid-19 actually do matter.

So agree with that. On every briefing we are told that any signs of improvement will start in the infection rate, move to the number in hospital and then reflect in the numbers who have sadly died, yet the BBC (both on the news and on the news website) focus only on changes to the number who have died and, in the main, ignore what are the more salient but less headline grabbing figures.

'
...and pray tell - do Sky News, ITN and Ch4 news report differently?

Besides - as a headline - what can be more important than the numbers struck down and dying from the disease?

In any case let's look at what is under the main headline on BBC News website at this very moment in respect of Covid-19.

https://www.bbc.co.uk/news

'Yet the BBC focus only on changes to the number who have died...'

No mention of numbers of deaths on the BBC News Home Page. Main headline is Raab vows to hit 100k test target in eight days - and the report ... well the number of deaths is the 5th point made in the report.

Coronovirus testing will increase more than five-fold over the next week, the government has promised.

Ministers insist they will meet their target of 100,000 tests a day by the end of April - an increase of 82,000 on current levels.

The government has also revealed that 15 social care workers have died of coronavirus.

And new figures suggest coronavirus deaths in care homes in England could have doubled in five days.

It comes as the latest figures show 759 additional deaths in hospital across the UK, bringing the total to 18,100.
 
I've said it before on this thread but will repeat...I get very irritated when the random things that irritate me are brought into question.

I'll continue to choose what I get randomly irritated by thank you. If you agree and are also irritated then join the party. If not, then enjoy the fact your day has been randomly irritation free, or at least my random irritation hasn't added to your random irritations.

As that extra irritation has occurred once again perhaps it's several irritations...
