Gregor147 Posted August 6, 2016 Share Posted August 6, 2016 Used to work for a bank. The number of folk that put their tesco club card in the cash machine instead of their bank card was unreal. Might have just been inverkeithing though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
welshbairn Posted August 6, 2016 Share Posted August 6, 2016 (edited) Just looking for something to watch on TV and discovered BBC4 will be non stop Olympics for however long it lasts. P.S. The red button used to be for this shite. Edited August 6, 2016 by welshbairn 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
resk Posted August 6, 2016 Share Posted August 6, 2016 Maybe the commitment to blanket coverage of future Olympics was part of the "legacy" that the UK government spunked billions of quid on for all of our benefit**caution - actual benefit may be restricted to c***s that are already rich. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hedgecutter Posted August 6, 2016 Share Posted August 6, 2016 Asking your other half "am I getting sunburnt anywhere?" only to be told "no, just a wee bit of your nose, that's it", then coming home to find the back of your neck a colour redder than a Brechin home strip. Genuinely seething. [emoji35] 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

An old dear's just got on and has been in four seats already. This x1000000. I've never understood why people just can't stay in the same seat and have to jump up as soon as a double seat becomes available. Even worse when someone who was sitting on their own gets up to get off the bus and someone is already in the vacated seat before they have even got to the front of the bus. If I am sitting on the aisle seat of a packed bus and it starts to empty, I like to piss people off by staying in my seat rather than moving to a free double seat, and you can see the person starting to get annoyed cos I haven't moved and let them sit on their own!! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aidan Posted August 7, 2016 Share Posted August 7, 2016 Nae dosh. Machines don't swallow cards for no reason. I'm fairly confident that machines don't swallow cards for not having enough in an account, although there was more than enough for a night out in it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aidan Posted August 7, 2016 Share Posted August 7, 2016 Nobody give you a loan? A couple of the lads I was out with said they'd get a few in, but I would have just felt a bit awkward so I bailed 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I rarely use the bus these days, but whenever I got on and clocked someone moving from beside someone to a free double-seat, I'd intentionally sit beside them. More often than not, they look furious. Delightful. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Weird wee wifie got on our train last week, proceeded to open about half a dozen or more windows all around where she was sitting, then got up and moved into the next carriage, all within the space of about two minutes. Either somebody had farted a beauty down that end of the carriage or she was marching to the beat of her own drum. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Beeb should try to bring it back; it'd end like that one episode of Frasier, with everyone going off-script and the director having to murder them. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
