I remember ordering stuff out of catalogues when i were a kid and waiting two weeks for it to turn up, even that was assuming it was on time! Ronny Chieng's bit on same day delivery in the brilliant stand-up Ronny Chieng destroys America (on netflix) likes this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VILLAMARV Posted May 2, 2020 Share Posted May 2, 2020 Some bloke in the flats where i live keeps singing. Normally, I'd be all encouraging of this. Just he's very adept at projecting his voice (in other words really really loud) and its repetitive, like the same line, over and over again. I can't work out what it is supposed to be either by title or even genre and it's starting to get on my wick after 5 weeks of it. Every day, sometime between 3 and 5pm. Mrsvm thinks he might be having singing lessons. I don't think so, unless his teacher is a mentalist. Da. Da. Da da da. 5 syllables. Tonic, super tonic, tonic, subtonic, tonic. Over and over and over and over again. Change the record mate Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Xela Posted May 2, 2020 Share Posted May 2, 2020 The back of my flats border the back gardens of some houses. I can't see in due to the trees and bushes (always a barrier for the discerning peeping tom) but it sounds as though there is a party going on in one back garden. Just loads of voices and chatting and laughing. Representatives for Wellingborough. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would love them to have been collared by the old bill and asked to explain which part of it was essential. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mottaloo Posted May 4, 2020 Share Posted May 4, 2020 I'm pissed off at myself for not getting off my arse to see what the queue situation (if any) is like at Costco near star city. Then again, i don't want to go all that way only to be stuck in a massive line. Any other VTers been there lately ? If so, is it manic and not worth the hassle ?

I thought you wrote Costa there at first! Talking of which, apparently there were huge hour long plus queues at some Costa drive thru branches this weekend after some of them opened. No wonder we will have the worst death rates in Europe if people are happy to queue hours for a shit coffee. Just wait until the Maccy D's open! 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Davkaus Posted May 4, 2020 Share Posted May 4, 2020 I used to go to Costa a few times a week, but after working from home with some good grade freshly roasted coffee beans, an aeropress and a milk frother, I can see how much money I've wasted on really shit coffee. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
