Coming back through passport control at Stanstead on Thursday evening. Huge queue which border control would have known but most of the automatic stalls were closed. WTF?

I have come to the local housing office to support a family. The office is across the road from my house so that was a nice extra 30 mins in bed.

So it opens at 9am. There is a queue of 10 outside already at 8.45. We get in. 1 , just 1 person behind the glass to deal with the people waiting. There’s a whole load more now.

I’ve already tried to challenge them but they’re not accepting a duty to support yet. Let’s see.

when insurance companies auto-renew policies at a vastly inflated rate than the previous year. Yesterday I sorted out some new house insurance for the 22nd April and thought id cancel existing one today. Except I woke up to an email saying they’ve taken my money and here’s some documents! It’s over Ā£100 more than my new deal. Why are they taking money 10 days in advance? Anyway, I’ve rung them and sorted it out but I shouldn’t have to. The should ban auto renew. I’ve had to ring the RAC to stop them from doing it as well or face a new policy with another Ā£100 increase. Thieving bastards!

Aviva did that with me. Auto renewal should be an ā€˜opt in’ thing not standard.

I’m quietly managing my way through a computer meltdown.

Abnormal service will be resumed shortly…

5 hours in the housing Office. 2 hrs 15 min waiting to be seen. Then a lot of form filling. Got further than in past but still no temp accommodation.

The system is broke.

When you get a letter from the company who have the freehold to your block of flats who want to put another floor on top of the building. The buidling was only finished 18 months ago.

They’ve obviously recently bought the freehold and hope to sell Ā£2mil worth of flats to make it worth while. I feel for the people who spent about Ā£20-30k more to have a pent house to no longer have the pent house.

Having a week off at home for once. But one of the shop/office rental units are putting in a salt cave so lots of noise.

Apparently the salt helps people with breathing difficulties.

It also helps preserving the bodies

BEAR: So what is you, a Gay?

NIECE: No, not gay.

BEAR: But not straight?

NIECE: No.

MY LITTLE SISTER: Oh. So like Bi then?

NIECE: No! (she is v.angar now) I am Pan.

This is new one on me. I was think immediately of Peter Pan.

BEAR: Kids?

BROTHER: No James (he is call me James) Pan is like Everything. Is Latin for All.

BEAR: What do you mean. Like, animals?

Niece is leave room at this point. Everyone is v.quiet. My little sister is start laughing. ā€œAnimals!ā€ Then we is all start laughing.

What is you all think about this? Is Pan sound like a Real Thing? I couldn’t be less interest in niece sexuality in general terms, but I am bit wondering a bit. Do you know any Pans People?

Booze has been the downfall of many a young chap who is in pursuit of decent looking clacker. I’ve banged some right old biffers in my time after a day/night on the sauce. They look like Anne Hathaway in the evening and then like Ann Widdecombe in the morning, FFS!

Standing in the kitchen cooking sausages (maybe this should go in the sausage thread)

When a house maid walks through just wrapped in a towel.

As any person does when young lady walks past just wrapped in a towel you just turn and follow her around the room the and sausage you are holding just drops to the floor.

NB there will be no rule 1 of a picture of the housemaid in a towel as I was too busy trying to get hold of my sausage.
