Which one?” ”The Birmingham 10k” Well that’s just ridiculously wrong! I hope you correct them. Are you sure they didn’t say “less than one quarter of” before the words “a marathon”? It has just occurred to me that 10km is much closer to the length of a Snickers bar than it is to a marathon. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mottaloo Posted October 4, 2019 Share Posted October 4, 2019 The amount of temporary traffic lights on single carriageways seem to be more and more frequent and at the moment on my way to work there are two separate sets that never seem to go away, just shuffle up and down the roads they are on (mere green, I'm looking at you !). After a 12 hour night shift i hit this double pain in the bum just as Penelope is taking Justin and Tabitha to school in Jeremy's 4x4....just by little aston.....the last 2 miles of my journey takes 15/20 mins cos of all this, with me struggling to keep my eyes open Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ingram85 Posted October 6, 2019 Share Posted October 6, 2019 BBC yellow weather warning last night at 23:30 for all day Sunday in Birmingham - Flash Floods, winds, travel disruption etc... Scheduled a taxi as thought **** that, I'm not confident enough to ride yet in the rain and winds plus being half asleep as it is first thing. Wake up, taxi arrives, get to work. No rain. No wind. Sunshine and warm weather all day so far. Dickheads. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sharkyvilla Posted October 6, 2019 Share Posted October 6, 2019 Just went out for dinner and I swear the waiter farted in my ear. It was right at the start when we were ordering drinks so it's not as if I could have upset him. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HanoiVillan Posted October 6, 2019 Share Posted October 6, 2019 American sports stadium names. The bloke who presents NFL Redzone on Sky is the most rah-rah corporate NFL hack you could ever dream of, but even he couldn't hide his contempt at 'Rocket Field at Dignity Health Sports Park'. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KentVillan Posted October 7, 2019 Share Posted October 7, 2019 People who list their Myers-Briggs personality type (ENTP or whatever) on Twitter. More generally, anyone who uses personality tests in a serious situation (e.g. work) as cover for their lack of basic emotional intelligence. People are not 4 letters FFS. It is one step up from astrology. Most people get different results depending on what mood they're in. It drives me effing nuts. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
