What Made You Want To Swear Today?

[loopinlouie]

One of three pet rats died. He had had breathing problems all along and the vet game him anitbiotics and powder to put in his food. The first time I gave him the medicine I think stressed the poor creature so much and he died in the night xx

 

RIP snuffles xx

Thanks everyone; I'm sure she'll be fine, I'm just spitting feathers at the thuggery of the little sod/s:mad:

 

Spitting feathers for you....The thugs need to feel what it's like to have a pellet in them :mad::mad::mad:

[Night Owl]

:eek:Please stop spitting feathers!!!! I hope they aren't mine!

[lexis200]

Why is everything dying?

I have just checked my pulse and it is still going thank goodness:p

Why is everything dying?

 

Like society and manners in general? This week:

 

 

• Am I getting old? Was grabbing a takeaway and as I was waiting I watched three kids wandering along the road pouring the contents of a can over the pavement. Once they were done the can went on the floor, only for the girl to stamp on it and leave it there. Two bins in sight, each no further than 20m away. In the past I would have gone out and made them pick it up but what's the point? Seems they'd have more right to tell me to ****orf than I or anyone else has to try and keeps things nice.
  

 

• Had finished a training session on my bike and was around a mile from home. Some bloke pulled out of a junction meaning I had to brake hard and swerve round the back of his car. Would he have done that if I'd been in my car? Considering my bike is worth £3500 and without being arrogant I'm a top 70 overall Ironman triathlete it gets a bit boring having to explain to the dullards that they might like to take a bit more care as they drive about with their heads up their a%^3.
  

 

He then has the ruddy cheek to bib me as I move in front of him 'suddenly' in my attempts to avoid him having to claim on his insurance (if he has any, an increasingly worring reality) and explain to the police why he wasn't paying attention to the road. I stop in front of him to explain quite calmly that perhaps he'd like to explain why he nearly caused an accident and all he could do was mumble in a pathetic manner and drive off. Cheers, a simple 'sorry mate, I'll bring my brain with me next time' would have been fine. So, if the guy in the blue Merc, reg number DB 131 is reading please recognise your driving licence is a privilage and not an excuse to injure or kill people as you see fit.

 

 

• More litter stuff. Out running this week and in the middle of nowhere (literally) I run past a beautiful river. Next to it are the remains of a Mcdonalds banquet for around 3 or 4 people. Can't these cretins just enjoy the countryside without recking it?
  

 

• Smokers...yeah I know it's the national sport but can you please stop chucking the dog ends on the ground? In some places the floor is carpeted with little soggy orange tabs and it looks foul. Mum, that includes you!
  

 

• So, the new chancellor wants to ask us for our views on where the money should come from to plug 'our national debt' caused mostly by the casino banking minority. Nice of him eh? How about any bank that had to take taxpayers money to avoid collapse is now forced to operate solely as a non-profit organisation with its actual profits going back into the government pot. If this takes 4 years to return the UK back to economic stability then so be it. Of course if the little bankers can find it in themselves to do an honest days work without the incentive to buy another new Porsche at the end of the week then all the better...perhaps they can bring the UK back to normal in only 2 years in which case that bank gets back to 'normal' much earlier. Why should the taxpayers bail these cowboys out, only to learn 12 months later that 'our debt' now has to be further reduced with the abolishment of services that we already pay for? Absolute disgrace but as ever we'll all moan about it whilst standing in line .
  

Feel a bit better now at least

How can it make you cry when someone you've never even met passes away?

Lexy, RUK was a stalwart of CAG. Many of us had help, support and advice from him and we also shared in his remarkable SOH

Yeah, how much fun would the lions have?! Using Equality as the basis for this the government should allow all of the illegal poachers caught that year to have a 'fair' fight with the lions, rhinos and elephants. Nature would soon bring the pecking order back to normal

[The GodMother]

Waiting for the delivery company to deliver my argos order. Ok they give a rough delivery time but its 6 hours long. Why oh why does waiting for a delivery person bore you.

I don't think the smoke was the only dense thing in that house

[The GodMother]

Well i also would be cagbotted for my thoughts on that. iam sure l would not forget there were other ppl in the house.

[The GodMother]

this kinda comes under yesterday but has overlapped into today.

 

ARGOS.

 

Well my delivery arrived on time this time with 4 items missing they have lost them in transit.

 

Ok so i ring them up being my normal calmish self to find out were my new tv, my daughters quad bike and my wii package and sons xbox game were and the guy on the phone said have they not been delivered, no l am ringing you up to get free ones obviously, so he put me on hold and transferred me to someone else who said sorry u have to wrong depatmnt you need small goods lost delivery. Ok so back on hold again this new guy was very nice understood l was annoyed and said to me yep l can get you those item but not for 3 weeks. WHAT 3 weeks. So a quick thinking me said nowt can do need the quad bike and game as birthday presents for my niece and nephew need them for next week. Ok fine he said he will see what he can do so he said right l can get you a quad bike and game if you go to a local store to get them but we also have there the tv and wii ok iam thinking how do i get them home will Argos pay for my taxi no of course they wont our courier not us lost the items so will need to claim off courier. Ok then why did they not call me and tell me. Cause the courier company had not told them via contracted method which is ringing them up and telling them rather than just scanning each item in at the depo nd sending a message back to Argos. When the comp was checked they said oh yes we do notice 4 of your items have not been scanned in.

 

Luckly a riendly neighbour offered to help me out with getting them back so l said ok where do u want me to pick them up. Coventry. WHERE thats not my local store so the guy looked again and found the items a bit closre to home but they did not have all the items at the one store so had to use 2 different store racing to get there b4 closing time of 5.30 on both stores.

 

This morning l get a phone call to say are you happy with the complaint resolution No i am not l had to make calls to a 0845 number in a pay phone to get this sorted then l got some dumb idiot on the phone what said have they not been delivered then he passed me to the wrong person who then gave me some flack for that who then passed me to the right guy but then l was told if l want the items b4 3 weeks l have to pick them up myself at extra expense to me. cost me a further £10.00 in delivery.

 

Next time might just give the neighbour the delivery charge and pick them up myself. Needless to say l am going to be sending a letter of complaint asking for my costs back a total of £15 and advising they have a better communication service as obviously if argos closes at 8pm then how are they going to manage to telephone the office to say the order is not fully there.
