Isn't it supposed to hard otherwise he wouldn't be learning; why not give school a call to put your mind at rest.

DYJHIW you are trying to do stuff on your laptop - including having a clean up and getting rid of the cr@p, but it is going s-o s-l-o-w-l-y because your anti-virus is updating, upgrading, checking everything and generally doing the Dance of the Seven Veils all around your laptop.

DYJHIW the girl at work keeps saying 'we're victims of our own sucess', for goodness sake, I'm just trying to do my job & if I'm sucessful I'm no flippin victim, I'm hoping for a decent pay rise at the next review.

Aren't work people annoying? I had a member of staff at the Post Office who asked customers if they'd like 'Anythink else?' it drove me mad! So I got her to spell it for me and asked her where the 'k' was! Grrrr

I used to work in a bar with a woman who insisted on calling bottles 'bockles.' By the end of the night... well you can imagine where I wanted to stick her 'bockles!'

Would that have been right in her Jattsy?

People who say "skizzors" for scissors should DIE. Ditto "keckle" for kettle. And "pompadumps" for poppadoms (sorry, mum).

Hi, my name is Luce, and I have an intolerance for whimsy.

DYJHIW Your boyfriend is meeting you from work, and usually texts to say he's on the way down (it's a 25 minute walk). I leave in ten minutes and haven't heard, and there's no reply to my text asking if he's set off...

 

[ScarlettStar86]

Dyjhiw you send a note, or letter, or facebook message, or text and sign it with your name, spelt in the correct way (I have a common name with an unusual spelling) and the person replies, using my name and spelling it wrong! It's just plain rude and it happens ALL the time!
(I'm not one of those people who have shortened my own name and insisted on a strange spelling. My name is one that is usually short for something, but in my case- this is my real name I'm not being fussy!)

 

[ScarlettStar86]

This happens to me all the time! And it makes me so mad, like they have read my message and then disregarded both my name at the end and my name in the email address and then decided how they wanted to spell it!

Exactly! Drives me insane! Glad I'm not being over sensitive and someone else gets it too x

 

[luce28]

I hate it when I introduce myself to someone face to face with my full name, and they automatically shorten it! Why do they do that? I TOLD you my name, why would you use a different one to the one I gave you?

 

[jodidi]

how many syns in savlon ?? lol

Slightly less than Germolene, but less of the Sasparilla breath...

E45 is heavier on the syns that WD40!

I'm sure I read you can have a tbsp of WD40 as a HexB

Goes great with Quark and dried Marjoram

Top tip: using wd40 as a hex B to make actifry chips does very little to enhance the flavour but the rotating blade works so much better.

ROFL, can't stop giggling!

Yep I get this all the time. Even people who have known me for years still spell my name wrong, lol! Doesnt bother me now, I'm used to it. But one of my teachers spelt my name, Joddiey, WHAT, lol, it's spelt Jodi!

I tell people my name is Shirl and they call me Shirley! Eeejits!

 

[hendopig]

I'm a Stacey but it must be a hard name to master as everyone calls me Tracey... Or Casey on a couple of occasions!

 

[Malc-D]
