hk blues Posted February 4, 2023 Share Posted February 4, 2023 Today is bin day. Two things - 1) The wife hears the dugs barking which is a clue the bin lorry is near. She panics saying "They're early again." Yep, same as the last 4 or 5 weeks at least she's said that. At what point will she accept they've changed their schedule? 2) I grabbed the toilet bin and she grabbed the kitchen ones and proceeded to tip them into a bigger bag - fair enough. However, she (maybe me) spilt some stuff on the floor. She proceeded to get the brush and pan to sweep up there and then instead of doing it after she'd dumped the bag in the big bin and nearly missed the lorry. In general she has zero prioritisation skills and everything is done to a fixed schedule regardless. Being a Filipina she also has no concept of total time, only including the main parts of an activity i.e. it takes 30 minutes to go by bus to the local shopping centre. So she leaves 30 minutes before and makes no allowance for the 10+ minutes it takes to get to the bus stop. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FK1Bairn Posted February 15, 2023 Share Posted February 15, 2023 We got an Air Fryer delivered today while I was wfh and she was at work. I done the gentlemanly thing of leaving it unopened until she got home since she's the one who's wanted one for ages and is the one who ordered it. She dropped it after opening it and needless to say its broken. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I presume you have already emailed the company you bought it from telling them it has arrived damaged ? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Oystercatcher Posted February 15, 2023 Share Posted February 15, 2023 In Lidl earlier. I pick up tomatoes and fling them in the basket, wait she says these ones are ten pence cheaper. I ask her how's she's going to spend her 10p and I'm met with silence from then until we get home. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The circulation pours plenty hot air out the vent, and at a volume that diffuses the smoke enough that you can’t see it, but the smoke detector certainly can. Does an excellent of making a crispy “fried” chicken with nearly no oil, just watch the breading doesn’t burn…can also do a mean chicken parm. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Another thing she does in Lidl is proclaim how much things are compared to where we normally shop. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
