No people. Tougher than that. Just expecting TT to fall over any minute. Will make one hell of a film script.

 

Obviously I am no longer at home. But my lass in the jaws of the lion. Or not. If I am just mistaken (gaslighting :lol:)  and hubby realy is a teddy bear.

Just received my new payback coupons. DM now requires bought goods for a minimum of 20 € to get  x15 points and Penny requires bought goods for a minimum of 25 € to get x 5 points. Another example of poor customer services, they tell you how much you must spend in their stores.

Stopped with Payback a few years ago. Ain't nobody got time for dat.

 

Mine is linked to my AMEX and I forget that I have it... then I get an email with balance that can be paid to my bank account.

 

 Woo hoo, €72 and some change this year, for doing nothing. (A year's worth of collecting and I guess about €5000 usage on the AMEX card)

 

Sure, they are using my data but I don't give a fuck if they know I'm eating Sockeye and spending 30% of my shopping money on alcohol ;)

The BBC online news is really scraping the barrel with its presumably well considered use of language.

 

Necrotising fasciitis is being described as a flesh eating disease. I wonder how relatives of victims and survivors themselves feel about the copy boosting sensationalism.

 

And the murdered 12 year old in France was left in  trunk on wheels. A trunk on wheels ? Why aren t they calling a wheelie bin a wheelie bin ?

I just hate reading total crap like this -

 

Quote

In Germany, bier (beer) is served at room temperature. In the smaller villages, a Gasthaus (basically a bed and breakfast), stores their bier outside. In summer you get a warm bier. In winter, it's ice cold.

Please excuse the chat, but where did you come across this and in what context?  It may have been true before the advent of refrigeration.

Which is the greater font of bullshit, comments on YouTube or Yahoo?  Neither is worth your time.

Dear Telekom,

can you first whip and then drag your developers into the 21st century and get them and your management user oriented?

 

After 50 minutes of TV, I get the message that an update of the receiver is necessary.

So what?

Why not update when not in use (it's in standby all the time) ?

Why not update when I switch it off?

 

Why do I just get "Now or in 295 Sek" as a choice?

 

Bit like the old days when your technicians would promise to turn up between 08:00 and 17:00

 

No wonder streaming is the new Glotzen

:ph34r:

I am a prisoner in my flat!

Last month, I let a friend stay with me on and off while working in HH. He left a suitcase and said he would pick it up on his next visit. Now he is not coming back.

He organized a Hermes pick up for today, and their 'window' is 8:00 - 20:00,  and I have to be here to pay for it...

Oh dear. That s what friends are for... I feel a visit to a Michelin starred restaurant at someone else s expense coming on. Patience, Tor, patience... do a bit of research to pass the time while waiting, that way you can waste no time in expressing your culinary preferences next time you speak to your buddy.

 

Maybe if you had been free to go out you would have been run over by a ruddy great bus... I left a meal before it started the other day after a spat with a wanker, sorry, 'friend'. Yeah, one of them. All I missed was food poisoning, as it turned out. :lol:... the cookie crumbles in strange ways.

I can see the link, I copied the text myself.

 

So why does it get replaced with the url of the thread when I save it in this illustrious forum?

 

Having to save it, then open and edit it is not what modern Software is all about.

 

Fix it!

With regards to this forum, I never think of "modern Software".

Dear wankers with wood burning stoves who live in urban areas, there is a reason that all use of said stoves will no longer be allowed from the end of 2024, i.e. wood smoke is more dangerous to people's health than vehicle emissions. Why not just quit now?

Hope they extend it to France. The neighbour opposite s fumes and vapours penetrate double glazing. Seems to seep through the walls.
