Parsnip Posted March 7, 2020 Share Posted March 7, 2020 Joined the queue at a very busy KFC in Chesterfield, waited a aeon to order my mighty bucket & gravy. The faceless voice from the box said "No gravy on today duck". Like it was nothing.

JoetheRam Posted March 21, 2020 Share Posted March 21, 2020 The utter pleb who overtook a car on the opposite side of the carriageway at about 65mph, going into a hatched area, which caused one of the many loose stones to fly up and hit my windscreen. Left a chip double the size of a £2 coin plus a crack that is now about 8 inches long. Had the car just over a month and now needs a new windscreen. Wish I got his number plate, I'd be sending him the £95 excess. Shouldn't be too hard to find though - West Midlands Ambulance Service Headquarters...

JoetheRam Posted March 23, 2020 Share Posted March 23, 2020 The cost to call the ticket office at Pride Park - got charged a tenner to book tickets for the Millwall game that never happened. Wouldn't mind so much if it just put you through but you have about 3 minutes of them going through the options before you get through.

Wolfie Posted April 8, 2020 Author Share Posted April 8, 2020 Facebook is full of those "Cut & paste & tag loads of people" things at the moment. Drives me nuts. I've been nominated for loads of stuff, going back years to the ice bucket challenge. Never joined in and never will. You'd think people tagging me would take the hint by now.

You can cut the cost slightly though if you press 1 (I think) for tickets as soon as you get through to the automated message. Obviously the cheapest way is the website, but sometimes calling them is unavoidable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Always pressing 1 immediately from now on! Call time wasn't helped on this occasion by the guy needing every little piece of information about me and the 5 other people who I was buying for. I was like I don't know my mate Bob's postcode. DarkFruitsRam7 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wolfie Posted April 16, 2020 Author Share Posted April 16, 2020 Presumably cheap "Celebrity" endorsements, where they have to tell you who the "celebrity" is in every advert. Step forward.....Aldi.

Mostyn6 Posted April 27, 2020 Share Posted April 27, 2020 Not so much “random” as conceived, but I’m becoming increasingly outraged by the sheer amount of bad-taste PR-stunt “support” for the NHS! the concept that PR and Marketing teams are plotting how to exploit the good-feeling for NHS and key workers actually sickens me. i do however love the NHS and my personal and political views for a long time have been influenced by my love and admiration for the NHS.

Cathedral City now move! i have a trick against that kind of annoyance, i wear a mask, a hat reaching down to my eyes and sunglasses. Works every time, they always figure i am infected. A fellow was standing in the middle of the aisle talking to his Mrs on the phone about what exact brand he was supposed to buy of some product or another. i stood silently about ten feet away staring at him. He must have felt it, for he suddenly looked up and then almost fell back on his arse from fright and literally fled out of the other side of the aisle. i-Ram, Comrade 86, Pearl Ram and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps supermarkets should operate like Yo Sushi. The customers can sit two metres apart and grab the shopping they want as it goes by.

SSD Posted May 4, 2020 Share Posted May 4, 2020 People yelling "I'm vulnerable person, stay back" in the supermarket whilst we've been in lockdown. Surely if you're vulnerable you would have the common sense not to be shopping in a people dense environment?
