mac.i Posted August 24, 2020 Share Posted August 24, 2020 Yodel. Not the alpine form of communication but the delivery company. Absolute diddies.However they look like the complete professionals when compared to Hermes......Table and chairs ordered to our new house, 2 parcels because of the size.Chairs arrive via DPD 2 days later, today 10 days after the chairs arrive Hermes inform me the table is on it's way back to the sender.To be fair to the supplier they already have another on it's way to us, this time with Yodel and its already at the delivery hub! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stellaboz Posted August 24, 2020 Share Posted August 24, 2020 The line of thinking that goes into a phrase like "he's got a great first touch for a big man". Why should tall footballers find it harder to control a ball? It's absolutely lazy bullshit to suggest this. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do agree with you that it's a stupid thing to say and nothing like a hard and fast rule but I can see where the thought process comes from. Small folk = low centre of gravity, can turn quickly, lends itself to close control. Tall folk = high centre of gravity, take longer to turn, doesn't lend itself to close control. On the whole it probably does have an element of truth but there are loads of exceptions that make it a pretty stupid thing to say. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've only had one issue with Hermes due to a lorry full of stuff getting sent to Preston rather than Dundee, the local delivery guy has the combination for the lock and my shed and just ditches my stuff there if I'm out.Delivery with Yodel was due on Friday and it's still sitting in Livingston according to the app, customer service are saying it's showing the drivers contact number from there end but I have to wait until it shows on the app before I can contact them.Finished my shift at 7am in Falkirk and I'm still waiting for it to arrive so I can head back to Montrose. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boo Khaki Posted August 24, 2020 Share Posted August 24, 2020 (edited) People who set clocks 5/10/15 minutes fast. My father was an absolute b*****d for this. Usual excuse of 'It means I get where I'm going on time'. The fact that people who weren't aware of this bizarre habit never actually knew what the accurate time was in my parents' house was never given a moments thought. Always looked totally nonplussed when I pointed out that he could just set the time on every household clock to the actual fucking time and set off 15 minutes early and achieve the same result without confusing the life out of everybody else... but no... I'm convinced he genuinely believed that he 'saved' time by just looking at the clock and allowing himself to be deceived. I remember he gave me a lift to the station once. I got in the car, looked at the dash, and yup, 15 minutes fast. In the car... Honourable mention to the current Mrs Khaki, who sets her phone an utterly baffling 22 minutes fast so she 'doesn't sleep in in the morning' ??? She also sets alarms for seemingly totally random times. 7:47am being one example. 8:18am another. Oh, and all this results in is her repeatedly hammering the snooze button because she knows the clock is fast, so she sleeps in and ends up running around like a demented version of 'It's a Knockout!' anyway.

Hedgecutter Posted August 24, 2020 Share Posted August 24, 2020 So simply by attempting to log in three times, anybody can freeze anybody's account at any time of year, at any time of day, from any part of the country?

True but that was because, back in the 70s, there was no 'drinking up' time in Scottish pubs hence the need to manipulate the clientele. Came as quite a shock when I moved to London that I didn't have to swill 3 halfs* when time was called but still had another 30 minutes. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
