Random Irritations

[GB72]

People celebrating things early, 5th November is still a few days away and it's like a war zone out here last night, it was that bad, the cat ran up and pulled the lights off the Xmas tree!!

Guessing Wednesday night will be the big night for fireworks as people will not be able to meet up on 5th.

Spending the morning trying to clean graffiti off the outside wall?
Extension is against a passage between the houses and local youths have decided to declare undying love by writing it on our wall. Wall is breeze block type so rough and not easy to clean

If this is a recurring issue you might want to try using an anti graffiti paint. It is not cheap and it does not stop the graffiti from sticking but it does stop it being absorbed and so makes cleaning it off much easier. We deal with a company that makes one, I can't get hold of this for you sadly, different division to the one I deal with , but they sell lots of it to councils and it is supposed to be pretty effective.

Having to drive to Nottingham tomorrow to get my daughter's signature on a contract for our house move because they won't take an electronic signature and she is deemed a resident of the household. Then having to drive back via Bishop's Stortford to drop the signed contract into the solicitors so we can exchange on Wednesday.

Bonus for junior shark is that I will be taking university essentials such as vodka, chocolate and drinking vouchers along with me. Solicitors will not be getting any.

The apparent inability of some people to understand a simple written phrase.

Earlier on, the DVSA issued a statement that said " All Driver and Rider training and testing is to be suspended from 4th November until 2nd December"
The number of replies to it asking " My test is on 5th/8th/9th etc of November- is this going ahead"...dozens of them!
Er...No it's not.
Yes it's a PITA but what part of "suspended from 4th November to 2nd December" doesn't compute...?

People from younger generations on the Chase who glibly declare that they don't know an answer as it's "before my time."

Same on Pointless although I'm pleased to say that both hosts jump all over anyone who comes out with that.

I am now quite glad I couldn't manage to get my test moved forward! Would be fuming if it got shifted back again now.

No idea how they're going to play it.
Choices are to shunt everyone back 4 weeks but that depends on people's availability and it cou,d get very messy
Or
Shove the November lot to the back of the queue....or March/April as its now known..
Either way there will plenty of people getting shafted.

Not so easy when you're doing it for real. I did a BBC daytime show years ago and got slaughtered. Then again, I was still royally hung over from being out with my producer mate the night before without realising my show would be the first one to get filmed that day.

Add people who don't seem to have enough common sense to make an inspired guess; Lady Gaga took her name from a song by which band? No, it wasn't The Beatles...

 

[Blue in Munich]

And add those that give convoluted explanations as to how they deduced the answer that just underline the fact that it was a blind guess.

Referees who get the call absolutely right and don't award the penalty, but then don't book the player that dived.
