"Can you put the chicken in at half 4 so it's ready when I get home? But put it on at the right temperature, don't put the oven away up at 250°c! It's to be done at 190°c so put it on at 200°c."



Sounds ok with me. Cooking temperatures are just a guide as all ovens don't cook the same. You learn over time how to adjust the times and temps on packaged foods.

When I was at uni, and still living at home, we had to fill in a national survey. My mum has the neatest handwriting of the household and so she got to fill in the form. All was well and good until I checked what she had written for me: Place of Study: Univercity of Strathclyde. When I quizzed her about this, she stated that university is spelled that way because you get universities in cities.

There's nothing wrong with it. It's the fact she made it clear to me it had to be at the correct temperature then tells me a different temperature to what it states.

She's a woman.

One from the other day.

”I don’t see the point in these contactless cards when you have to touch the machine with them”

”excuse me?”

”you need to touch the machine with them. “

”No you don’t. The hint is literally on the name”

”nah, you definitely need to touch the machine with the card”

Tell the silly bint your lovely wife that she is still free to insert her card into the slot (fnarr) and type her pin.

I see loads of folk actually ensure that contact is made when using contactless. Quite a few place the full card over the machine face.

Much easier and more consistent than trying to hold it just far enough away without touching, assuming you're the kind of person who pays attention and acknowledges the person serving you in case it doesn't work.

I'm guilty of this. Just thought the closer it is the quicker you can leave the place.

not sure if there's an upper age limit to the "babes" from which utterances are permitted in this thread, but was chatting to hessian junior s'afty, who's just turned 17, and who has his girlfriend coming over on sunday "ahhh good`' says me "very prim and proper - church then sunday lunch, eh ?" - "don't knock religious girls, father" says the boy "they know all about getting on their knees and keeping their eyes shut..."

I’ve said this plenty of times before, but you sir, are a fucking deviant and need locking up.

My card has started to play up and the only way it works is to turn it with the chip facing the machine and have it touching the screen, face up it doesn't work.

Me to Mrs “Do you want to sit down and watch the boxing?” (Smooth operator, I know)

Her: “Who’s playing?”

Niles arrives at Frasier's apartment. Daphne answers the door

Daphne: Oh, Dr. Crane, don't say anything about last night's boxing match. Your dad hasn't seen it yet.

Niles: Oh, I didn't even know it was boxing season.
