Radio DJ's that cut classic songs' short. I've lost count of the number of times 'Free Bird' has been faded out just as the brilliant instrumental bit gets going :wall.

Continuing my dismay of Xmas too early.....

There now showing Xmas films on channel 5! I know there's not much good on TV at the best but showing Xmas films 6 weeks prior to Xmas is ridiculous and while I'm on the subject.....

Shopping centres now playing Xmas songs.

Xmas will soon be an all year event at this rate :(

I went to the garden centre the other day for some moss treatment for the lawn. Most of the actual gardening things had been displaced by baubles and tinsel :eek. The stuff I was looking for had been bunged outside in a shed :rolleyes.

It's a nightmare trying to keep on top of it. I have to treat it at least twice a year. Yeah I guess it's a bit late for it, but I've found it still works. Probably wouldn't bother again until Spring now tho. The main issue is that re-seeding is a bit hit & miss when it turns cold and wet.

Forget the bikes..welcome to gardeners corner :lol.

Autojumblers.... I mean JUST WHAT THE ACTUAL FUCK? I have spent the day watching piss smelling, hat wearing, old cunts spend serious amounts of wedge on rusty old pieces of shit. I shit you not I watched some old boy part with enough folding to snort coke off of a high end hooker's arse on a rusty wheel rim that looked like it had been at the bottom of the canal for decades and then walk away clutching said rusty shit and looking like he was gonna cream in his pants....

I just don't get it, serious go to an autojumble and see for yourselves cos it baffles the fuck outta me!

I find that the best way is to treat with moss killer and the use an electric scarrifer around about April and the re seed. If you have never use an electric lawn rake before you will be amazed how much moss and thatch you will take out. The south lawns of sharp hall are not that bad for moss but the rear lawns that fall under sharp halls shadow can get mossy in areas.
The gardener didn't scarify this year and I noticed that he did not have to mow the lawns half as much as in previous years due to the thatch suppressing growth.
I am going to have a word with him next year and get him to scarify as Lady Sharp had commented about the lawns condition during her last garden party

Had a new one happen last night on the way home.


Stuck in traffic (again) and I noticed the car about 4 foot in front of me inching backwards, so waited for the brake lights to come on but they didn't so I gave a quick blast on the air horn.


No brake lights and now the car is getting closer and also picking up momentum.
Now I have the air horn on full blast......car still moves towards me!


So I have to make a decision to get the foc out the way in a split second and I had to blindly reverse the bike hoping I never hit anyone behind me, then I swung round the car and moved forward up to the driver's door, then banged on his window.

I WOKE THE BASTARD UP!!!


I could see by the way he jumped and moved his head that he'd nodded off, adding the fact that my air horn is bloody loud and he never even heard it.
Wouldn't be surprised if he hit the car behind either, because if he's anything like me I take an hour to properly wake up.  :lol :z :z :z

LOL

Three locks in as many months, first was a combination which they changed as they were concerned anyone could gain access so changed it for a lock with a key, which of course everyone had access to. So in the name of security they put on a third lock and kept the key to themselves............I have enough focin things to do on start up without having to hunt down a member of their team to open up the bloody box.

The box is plastic, if they carry on like this the box will have an accident

Compared to "reporters" like a girl called Emma Kelly who's job involves trawling the web for photos of "sideboob" or "nip slips" in the Daily Star.


I spend all day running round like a maniac and lifting heavy shit, and she undoubtedly gets paid much more than me looking for tits and arse on the internet!


I could seriously do her job very well in an instant, yet i doubt she could do mine if we swapped for a day, but i'm more than willing to give each other a sporting chance.  :b


Here's a perfect example:
