« on: 27 June 2019, 17:59:48 »

Then went to pay for it and asked the Cashier if He could explain to me how I managed to get 57 litres of LPG into a 45 Litre Tank that will normally only hold about 37 litres brimed even when competently empty. 

He just gave me a blank look and mumbled something about sometimes stuff happens.

Not to me it doesnt, was my replky, never mind, here's my name and number get a Manager to call me urgently tomorrow (today)

Good News if your a Sky Mobile Customer starting from Saturday 15th June you will get Free, yes Free, Unlimited Mobile Data to use as you wish and as much as you want, irrespective or which Tariff or Plan you are on.

Enjoy and dont crash the Network

Could this be the start of something big, will the other Networks be forced to follow suit or at least start giving big chunks of Data away?

General Discussion Area / Waitrose in trouble for selling Chocolate Easter Ducks

« on: 11 April 2019, 15:28:56 »

Waitrose have had to pull their Chocolate Ducks off the Shelves after complaints of Racialism on the name of the Dark Chocolate Duck.

The three Ducks, in Milk, White and Dark Chocolate, had Names, Crispy, Fluffy and Ugly, which Waitrose say were inspired from the Bedtime Story "The Ugly Duckling" by Hans Christian Anderson, you know the one where one of the Duckling is a different colour from the others and then gets a load of stick from the other Ducklings, for those who cant remember the Story a Swans Egg accidentally rolls into a Ducks Nest.

Waitrose pulled the product from its shelves and redesigned the packaging, with the names of the ducklings removed.
A Waitrose spokesperson said: “We are very sorry for any upset caused by the name of this product, it was absolutely not our intention to cause any offence".

Whats your views, is this Political Correctness gone mad or is Waitrose being Racist here and have correctly been slapped across the wrist.

more importantly if you never did get to read the Bedtime Story when you was a Nipper you can read it Online here -

General Discussion Area / Brexfucit

Does anybody actually know WTF is going on now 

The way I see it is the Government now has to sit on their hands whilst the rest of the MP's of the House decide how they can plunge the Country from a bonfire into ashes. 

Meanwhile back in Euroland the Clock is ticking and their tapping their fingers on the table whilst looking at themselves with blank expressions on their faces. 

We must be the laughing stock of the Planet, actually, cancel that, if it wasn't for Donald Trump, We would be the laughing stock of the Planet.

General Discussion Area / But I had right of way, She said

« on: 14 February 2019, 17:17:20 »

So, following a Corsa down a Side Street, Cars parked both side on the Road so all a bit tight, then I notice another car pulling out in front of the Corsa, my reaction is to slam the anchors on thinking she was about to do the same, but she didnt she just drove straight into the other Car, in fact I dont remember seeing Her brake lights coming on at all.

So now stopped behind the Corsa, I gets out like you do, no ones hurt, bonus, and in the chit chat, ask the Corsa Driver "I know its the other Drivers fault, but did you not see Him then?", yea, She replied, "But I had right of way, so F@ck Him".

A bit gob smacked I asked the question again, but in a different way, same answer followed by, "Not my fault, not my problem, He pulled out in front of me"

Im kinds guessing that although a slow speed crash both cars will be written off due to age. And we wonder why our Insurance premiums keep going up.
