Hampden Diehard Posted August 22, 2017 Share Posted August 22, 2017 That's understandable, there has to be a deadline for next day delivery. I just wanted the stuff to go into the bag that left the post office that night...nothing fancy. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hedgecutter Posted August 22, 2017 Share Posted August 22, 2017 Impractical shower designs, which hotels seem to have a love for. Is it really asking too much to design a shower that keeps the majority of water inside of the shower rather than all over the bathroom floor? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
invergowrie arab Posted August 22, 2017 Share Posted August 22, 2017 People doing easy things, telling you about it and standing waiting for a reaction. Better still emailing all round the work with photos. Eg Kilt Walk, climbing Ben Nevis, walking across the Tay Bridge and back. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dressing in a onesie whilst doing it also seems to be de-rigeur. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jmothecat2 Posted August 22, 2017 Share Posted August 22, 2017 I tell everyone at work if I've had to walk an extra five minutes because I've had to take a different bus so I've no issue with folk telling me they've climbed Ben Nevis. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Definitely annoying, especially when they ask for your hard earned cash as sponsorship. I used to work with a guy who was well into cycling and was always asking for sponsorship for some bike ride or another which eventually pissed people off. Cycling was his hobby - someone pointed out to him that their hobby was going to the pub on a Friday/Saturday evening and asked whether he'd like to sponsor that! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

topcat(The most tip top) Posted August 22, 2017 Share Posted August 22, 2017 It's also an internationally recognised symbol of Britishness, they were saying last night.

My brother and his wife did a Kilt Walk and were looking for sponsorship money for it. When I found out what it actually was a threw them a fiver, he is my brother after all, however when they were on the walk it came past my house and I went out to see them as they were walking past. Both of them stood there laughing, utterly pished, taking turns to swig whisky from a hip flask and had great delight in telling me they stopped at a pal's house about half an hour previous for a BBQ. Sponsored to get pished in the street. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only ones who would support them are the people who let their club die so they're unlikely to part with any money. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My dear wife woke up in a bad mood this morning and started having a go at me over a girl with whom I occasionally had rumpy pumpy, before I started seeing my now wife.
