Yon touch screen ordering thingies at fast food joints - went to Popeye’s in Aberdeen last night and spent about 10 minutes trying to punch in our order without success. Eventually got back in the car and drove round to the drive through bit. Ordered and collected within two minutes.

An acknowledgement is courteous, but the Road Safety Act says Pedestrians have the right of way.

Most pedestrians do wave in acknowledgement.
Those who do not, I wish I had flattened the *&*^......
 
The constant hyping up of the best league in the world 🤮 by players managers media is really starting to boil ma piss 😡. That’s a league full of foreigners btw and without the said foreigners it would resemble a sunday pub league, apologies to the said sunday pub leaguers😩

Their right of way isn't meant to be a slow diagonal crawl across the road ignoring traffic when you've given way to the idiots.
 
No idea how it works in Thailand, but in the UK you must slow down or stop to allow the pedestrian to cross the road.

A direction that very few adhere to. Tis the same with cyclists, they do not have right of way over pedestrians.

And make sure your decorator lines the walls if the finished paper recommends that.

I always used to cross-line the walls before I did any wallpapering at Chateau Dub. I also always started opposite the windows, although that might just be an urban myth that I took to heart.
 
This is quite a recent development, but I'm not able to sleep in at the weekend anymore. Was out last night, got to bed at 2.30am, naturally awaken at 7.45, feeling shattered, but unable to get back to sleep. As a result I'm cutting about the house today like a half cut zombie.
 
Watching one of the wee vultures and letting them pick what they want to watch.

K Pop Demon Hunters 😭😭😭

When you go to bed bevvied, you don't really sleep, you're just unconscious. Go for a long walk and you'll sleep tonight.
 
The plethora of books called the something of something. Usually the something of Auschwitz. The Tailor of Auschwitz, the Tattooist of Auschwitz, The Quantity Surveyor of Auschwitz, The Interior Designer of Auschwitz.
The Vole Strangler of Kazakhstan etc etc.

Cable TV would be completely empty if there had not been 12 years of a regime in Germany.

And STILL folk are attracted to national socialism.

We even had a wee crew of neo Nazis in Israel!!!

Ross Kemp when he met the geezers in the Mongolian nazi party.*

Youngsters used to rebel by going full on communist until they realised society isn't like what they preached.


*Jews are not their enemy though it's the Chinese.
 
I think it's been mentioned but folk putting bags on seats on the buses stopping others getting a seat. Absolutely feckin selfish and ignorant. 4 folk did it on the bus this morning some sitting on the outside seat with bag on the inside. Have a word with yourselves people. Just another sign of how lacking in self awareness and social norms folk are.😡😡
 
Sanded and sized the walls in the spare bedroom yesterday and the size is still wet today.

So it's a day off for me today. Well gutted. 🙄
 
Aye but it's no been used for years unless the customer requested it.

It stinks to the high heavens as well. Most of my mate horse racing tips ended up as glue. 🤬

Usually we just use ordinary paste now. If it's new plaster then I would give it a double coat of size.

I like to move the bag and sit on the seat.Even if there are other empty seats.

Now we will all have things that annoy us, but I'm thinking more about stuff that other folks would say are just plain daft.
Mine is using a cup and saucer. At home I never use a saucer but we go out a lot to many coffee shops so have them all the time.
I hate the noise of sitting the cup back on the saucer after a mouthful, and I hate that there's always a spoon you need to move a bit with the cup.
Ridiculous? Of course it is but just a wee annoyance which is hard to avoid.

Times in football games freaks me more than annoys me, and certainly more than it should.

Someone scores in the 1st minute that’s from 0:00 to 0:59

A penalty awarded in the 21st minute?
That’s from 20:00 to 20:59

A goal scored in the 90th minute?
That’s from 89:00 to 89:59 ie in normal time

A red card in the 91st minute?
Thats from 90:00 to 90:59 ie in injury time

I feel my outlook on this may be unique.

[There’s a sting in the tail here - half time subs. They don’t happen in the 45th minute that’s already completed. They don’t happen in the 46th minute that’s yet to start. They happen in this mythical void between the 45th and 46th minute.]

The Police have the power to issue a fixed penalty fine of £30, to any cyclist on the pavement.

That just makes me even more angry. The cyclists around porty jump on and off pavements to suit. One nearly ran over my wee doggy years ago. Let out a volley of abuse I'd only ever use on the football pitch. Got a few funny looks but a few well dones.
