Random Irritations

Banks: Lets make it easier for folk and raise the contactless limit to £45.

Supermarkets: Great Idea! Wait, what, we have to do something? Nah, we'll just leave it.

Tesco, take a bow.

Isn't the first time even before covid. Apple pay when I used to have it was raised to £100 or limitless I can't remember the number but Tesco refuse to accept it. Even put signs on their tills "apple pay limited to £30 in this store"

When I moved to andriod my only annoyance was Tesco. I use their credit card to build up points for meals out with family .. anyways they refuse to support Google pay. You can use your card via it for paying online that's fine but can't use it for paying in stores. Give some poor reason being a business decision.

Have you tried Tesco pay plus on your phone? It's ok.. limited to Tesco stores but can pay for shopping up to £300. You scan your code at the tills using it ..
 
I just spent 1/4 of an hour looking for the I bought today thread as I hadn't seen it for a while and was going to ask if anyone was buying....
Eventually found it and worked out that the reason I hadn't seen it was because I had accidentally Ignored the original poster.....and you can't see a thread started by someone you're ignoring....
PITA......
 
No...no spiders in here....everything's blackenedand scorched though....but it was more to do with the foxes that were barking most of the night.....

I have a random irritation related to spiders ..

I wish the darn things would bugger off living in wing mirrors
 
For once I managed to sleep past 6am this morning, despite the spiders, and was rudely awakened at 6.45 by Barley going ballistic at the door. It was the oil delivery...seriously...before 7am?!
 
Shoddy journalism

The Guardian has an article about New Zealand. Above is a picture "Walkers exercise by Avon Beach in Christchurch. The country has been told it will move to the next recovery phase" with a picture of my local beach :)

Who knew I lived in New Zealand not Dorset lol, at least ill be playing golf sooner than everyone else ;):ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO::ROFLMAO:
 
It's raining - which is good for the grass and the golf course - but I get wet walking from my back door down the garden to my garden studio workplace.

Leave your golf waterproof jacket and a hat by the back door.. it's not like we can use them for anything else right now ?
