😠 🤯 The Little Annoyances Of Everyday Life (Part 2)

I have noticed some modern cheap trousers /designers reduce the length of the Fly Zipper

HTH

Have to hope?

Perhaps they aren’t as well blessed in the trouser department as we Sotonians?

Thanks for the prompt reply. I’ll let him know, I understand he’s not usually bothered either way or both.

Am I alone in reading one star reviews first when looking at an online purchase?

I sometimes read the one star reviews of good stuff I’ve already bought just to see what inane stuff knobheads can come up with to complain about.

Fucking AI on help lines, trying to book a repair for mu tumble dryer and the AI ā€œassistantā€ is painfully bad.

In fact the whole booking repair call is trorturous.

Someone I know has a problem with a flat that their old parent bought in a retirement block

McCarthy and stone

Service charge is now 1200 a month

The estate cannot give it away - don’t even go for Ā£45,000 for an apartment in Lymington at auction. mccarthy and stone won’t take it back for free

They will drain the estate, then repossess. 19 out of 45 apartments are vacant

Yep - we almost fell into thst trap with MumCS in Hythe (died a year and a week or so ago :cry:)

pathetically short lease and a fortune to extend it along with restrictions on who it could be sold to.

Ended up moving her into Westcliff Hall - she liked it there. Quality of care deteriorated over the time since she moved in during lockdown though & savings were depleted pretty damn quickly :enraged_face:

Care and retirement homes are a license to print money.

We moved my mum into a care home after selling her house for Ā£280k, 3 years later and she’s nearly burnt through the money, it’s not even like it’s an expensive home as well.

What’s worse is that she doesn’t do anything either, just sits in her room and watches TV, doesn’t join in with the activities, nothing

Laptop half died last night.

Keypad not working not charging

Fid all the anti virus scans but.

Step nephew staying for weekend trying to fix but we don’t even have the right sized Jewellery screw drivers to get the case off.

The Car Key broke. I gave the key to Mrs P_F to lock the car it came back with metal piece out of case.

On top of not going to Ireland.

Cunts

We have got a full charge

Tablet keyboard is (by fluke) working

Probably a motherboard/connector fault

Found a car key maker

Busy rush around early tomorrow

I have finally worked out that, thanks to Severn Trent’s incredible incompetence, I have been paying next door’s water bill for the last year. They’ve been charging us for a metered supply but we have no meter. But they said we had. And used next door’s reading as it seemed the easiest thing to do.

Now for fun getting my money back.:enraged_face:

During the weekly food delivery it was found that this was delivered and not the normal non alcoholic beer.


The annoying thing is somebody informed the OIM before me and it was all confiscated as contraband before I could get my hands on it :enraged_face:
