Little things that would make difference

BBC weather forecast can't make its mind up again. Today is says 'light winds and light rain', despite a met office icon in the corner giving a yellow weather warning, for the whole of Sunday, for thunderstorms...

Ban Reality TV in all its forms.

Get the mall management to actually do something about the increasing amount of pedestrians walking in the exit tunnel from the roof top car park,instead of promising "better signage"

What is it with some drivers who think they have the right of way when joing a dual carriageway from a slip road? Bluebell Hill in particular. Regularly get cut up by cars joining from the Running Horse, M20 and today when, slowing to join, was first blasted by the horn of a car behind me, then overtook me, on the slip road, causing traffic in both lanes to swerve!
Madness - and no police car when you need it of course.
Maybe he just needed the toilet, in which case, I hope he shat himself.

Coffee shops in general, but Costa in particular: have a separate queue for those of us who just want a coffee, and maybe a cake. Waited 20 minutes today while others wanted a skinny latte with f**k me juice and gawd knows what else, requiring five minutes or more. Indeed, whatever happened to filter coffee?
Have two jugs on the go and all you need to do is pour a cup and let me add my own milk and sugar, then sit down.
No wonder coffee is three quid a cup...
Obviously oldies day at Sainsbury's this morning. Mad, bad and dangerous to know. Thursdays much better!

Seems to me there are ever more total fuckwits on the roads these days no better exemplified by an incident the other day.
Going into my village there is a long stretch where parked cars mean you have to take turns. I could see three vans and a car coming the other way, so stopped short to give them room. The driver of a large pick up truck, who could easily see over my car and hence what was coming, gave me a blast of his horn and overtook, meeting the traffic coming the other way, with nowhere to go, especially as the equally stupid driver of a Mini followed him, so now everyone was blocked in.
I turned round and went the other way, as did the queue of cars that had by now built up behind me.
All in all, I believe it took about 20 minutes to sort the mess out, all because somebody couldn't wait 30 seconds. Oh yes, the pickup driver, with much effing, blinding and threatening behaviour blamed everyone else.
Of course....

What makes me laugh Is the increasing amount of cars that are ignoring the rules and driving up and down the high street,but what makes me laugh more is,the police who seem to be turning a blind eye to it all!

A bird feeder that starlings can't get at. Bought one the other day that the garden hooligans are not supposed to manage, but they have emptied it of three quids worth of feed meant for small birds in less than 20 minutes.

We put up a feeder full of mealworms. The starlings empty that and leave everything else alone. It's like a Hitchcock movie when I fill it up.

Interesting to see that people drive more sensibly on the icy roads. Shows they can do it if they want to. However don't know about anywhere else in the county, but gritters noticeable only by their complete absence - and don't tell me they've been out at night because a line of snow and ice down the middle of each carriageway is a bit of a give away!
Mind you, trying to buy rock salt is pretty much impossible. Screwfix don't have any, nor any of my local DIY stores.
Should have cleared the drive on Monday...

I think there should be some rule in place where pub customers are allowed to forcefully eject drunken wankers from a pub when the landlord hasn't got the bottle to do it himself and with all the once a year office staff turning up at Xmas and treating bar staff like shit after half of shandy regular customers should just open the door and tell them to f**k right off .🤬

Indeed, what is it with the shouty ones? A few blokes and a couple of drinks and the decibel level goes up to be that of a Who concert, with everyone else also having to to shout to make themselves heard.
Women groups just as bad. One round and they all get shrieky.
Bah Humbug.

In Hong Kong it is the banker types who act like w****rs (you are free to make up your own rhyming couplets). They are the most boorish people on the planet and I have even been approached by one in my local bar who criticised me for keeping myself to myself (fortunately I was in control and did not punch his lights out).

Wunch is the collective noun for bankers, I believe...
