Sorry, didn’t I mention there would be an additional charge for actually completing the damn things for you and proof reading them? The initial fee only covers explaining the forms and the decisions you need to make ? Edited September 10, 2022 by Tamworthram Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wolfie Posted September 16, 2022 Share Posted September 16, 2022 Car manufacturers who have removed physical buttons and knobs in favour of touchscreen controls. For everything.

Couldn't work out why it looked odd. Then twigged there are no wing mirrors ?. All now down to cameras, and two small screens at either edge of the dashboard.

Wolfie Posted September 28, 2022 Share Posted September 28, 2022 When you spend over a month deciding whether it's the right thing to do, to apply for a certain new job. Finally apply for said job and then the company goes bust the day after. Yes I know I may have dodged a bullet but it's still annoying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rev Posted September 30, 2022 Share Posted September 30, 2022 When you queue for 40 minutes for a booster jab, having had an email and a text requesting you book a slot as a clinically vunerable person After a further 10 minutes conference, told that you're not actually eligible for one yet, and to come back at a later date.

Can't get my head around the over 70's getting priority over people still working, does my nut in. I got asked to go for my annual check-up but was working abroad. When I got home and called to make the appointment I was told in no uncertain terms "we've started doing the flu-jab, so there are no slots for the next 24 months", (I lied a bit at the end of that sentence). ?
