Not only has mother neglected to buy bread despite being in any number of stores over the last three days, when I went to all the local stores tonight not one of them had any. You could blow this part of Belfast up like it was the 70's and nobody would know any different...

See? Nothing should ever be attempted on a Friday.

I like the fact that the BBC tells you what the markings should have said just in case you are too thick to work it out

Bought a jumper today, got it home and discovered that the brain dead moron on the till had forgotten to take the security tag off the back. I'm surprised the alarms didn't go off when I walked out but they didn't - I bet the feckers do go off when I walk back in tomorrow. *sigh*

The day engineers just copies a shortcut to our end of well report thinking it was the actual file. He then renames teh shortcut, opened it, deleted most of the data and saved it.
Three months of reports down the drain as he's lost the backups.

My broadband at home fell over, apparently at 9am yesterday and they don't know why at the moment.
And now, obviously, I won't actually be in until Saturday to be able to do any proper testing and may need an Openreach engineer as well.

Bugger

And while I'm at it, Scan have been waiting for the motherboard to start building my new PC since Wednesday and there still doesn't appear to be any sign of it from their suppliers. At this rate they won't be able to build and deliver it n the week I've got off (despite having ordered it last weekend).

Double bugger.

Yay! No openreach engineer available until Monday afternoon so no broadband all weekend.
On the plus side, I won't be in the house for most of it.

Stainless steel ice cream scoop sheared off at the handle with the scoop buried in the ice cream last night.

And recently mother managed to snap the potato masher in a drawer and never bothered buying a new one. All I seem to do now is buy utensils that the thick women of this house will inevitably break or lose :x

Impressive that you broke the scoop. I once destroyed my mother's garlic press.

I have a daughter who can destroy pretty much everything just by looking at it. It's like a super power. :evil:

I don't think you really have a daughter. It's just my son in disguise. ;) :lol:
