Now there in BP garages surely there now longer middle class, they have been replaced by Just Fresh/ Gousto.

I expect to pay through the nose if I buy a snack when I'm in the garage getting petrol, but I wouldn't chose to go to a foodhall to do my normal food shopping. You're absolutely correct about Gousto/Just Fresh, I just don't see the point, and the packaging waste and food miles associated with them must be horrendous.

What is this petty bourgeois nonsense? We all know it involves pishing in the kitchen sink, but having previously removed the dishes.

I challenge this opinion with getting out of the bath to go to the toilet.

Being an MSP who advocates for Air Source Heat Pumps yet still has a gas boiler.


a) This is not the "petty things that get on your nerves" thread, this very specific gripe you have with presumably one individual is not relevant here.

b) You can advocate for something getting built in new houses without having to rip up everything in your own home.
