So what have you done today..?

  1. Ordered a tumble dryer. We've not had one for a couple of years. Since moving in to this house washing seems to take forever to dry . Daughter moving home from uni has also increased the washing quota. It was £450 , can I put a label on it and say it's an expensive gift for the wife ?

  2. Yes, as long as you have wrapped it in expensive wrapping paper
     
    • Thanks Thanks x 1
  3. Yeah great idea! I think you should also make your daughter contribute half to the £450 you spent. Then neither of them will speak to you, and you'll get a bit of peace over Christmas.

  5. Cancel Jeff’s delivery and you can have these tomorrow. Free.

    I checked the size and they’re the right ones. 8” rims. 4 stud fittings at 100mm centres.
    Tyres;4.80 x 4.00 x 8. Pretty standard stuff for small trailers.

    Your call but I’m off to London 6am tomorrow.

  7. I think you already know the answer to that question!
    The number of braincells that guy has would inevitably limit that opportunity.....

  9. Refrained from smashing things up. The only hint that I'm still withdrawing is the hair trigger temper. Fucking bollocks.

  10. Received a visit from @Sam1199 who very kindly dropped off 3 trailer wheels for which he would not accept any payment. However, notwithstanding Sam’s refusal to accept valuable consideration, Iggy was keen to reward his generosity, which he did by humping his arm as we set the world to rights over a cuppa :joy:

  11. Sat in the function room of the local pub for a comedy night with a mystery bill topper. Watch this space…

  12. The MC was a guy called Rory O’Hanlon who was very good; the undercard was Julian Dean, who was okay, and the mystery headline was a guy called Simon Brodkin, who we had never heard of before but he was very good. Overall about and hour and 40 minutes of comedy for £15 a ticket.

  15. I told Iggy we had to go out for dinner at least 2 or 3 times before we could get to that kind of thing.

    He backed off.

  16. I went to Aldi and Sainsburys at 8am this morning as we apparently didn't have enough food and drink in to see us through Thursday, despite the fridge/freezer, kitchen cupboards and the garage freezer being full to the gunnels. Trouble is it would seem every fucker else thinks the same as Doris. The supermarkets were chocker!

    Call me a miserable old cnut but I honestly don't see the need to buy so much crap just for one day.........I know that half of what I've bought will end up "going off" and will end up in the bin (because that happens normally every week).........yet when I point it out to Doris I'm a misery guts and should get into the spirit of it all.

    Oh and at 1pm I have to go to the local farm shop to collect the Turkey and Duck we ordered weeks ago.

    FFS shoot me now!

  19. Totally agree.

    Roads are jammed, shops are packed, because everyone gets one day off and its Sky Fairy day- that no one actually believes in.

    So people eat like mad, stuffing themselves with all kinds of crap in between weight loss injections.

    All most people really want to do is take down all the plastic tat decorations and BS flashing lights that have been driving them mad, since they put them up in November.

    Roll on Easter!
