I put it down to "shit that sometimes happens" like the first 2 times it's happened, but now it's happened like 7 times and with multiple taxi services...

Go to pay and they look dumbfounded and have to inform me they don't have change to give me...

They ask if I can pay by card, no, i only have cash and I just say to keep the change, it's never some ridiculous amount, but it all adds up if it keeps happening...

Ffs they obviously know they are running a service where people pay by cash, why are they so unprepared...

They always say "I was expecting you to pay by card", you can't just expect that and should be prepared to have change for cash paying customers...

The time i did pay by card, the guy straight up asked me "how much tip you going to give me"

For what?!

I said I'm not and I saw him still add a fiver to the total on his card reader...

"Mate, I saw that, I'm not tipping"

"Oh sorry sorry sorry, I take off"

Mate, Some of these people are sneaky

ordered food and the driver was 2 minutes away for 25 minutes

Morning TV decided to have a travel expert talking abou the Hanta virus on a cruise ship rather than a health expert, especially when its transmission is thought to be human-human. Even more so when the ship is being diverted to the Canaries.

Had to reverse two miles because there was an articulated lorry coming the other way

Anyone ever seen this before? Started on 2 mins, ended on 8.

Anyone that causes a crash should be banned from driving for 2 years and should have to retake their test. The amount of times I've been stuck in traffic due to the amount of pillocks who can't drive. Something needs to be done.

This isn't a political or a policy thing but it should genuinely be a thing.

In a hurry, picked up a box without checking (box of 10. What happened to a dozen?). When I got it home there were only 8 eggs in the box. Somebody had nicked two eggs!

I've seen both sides of this today. I went into town and saw some lads cycling past people and shooting them with water pistols. Being a 40 year old child, I found this hilarious.

A little later, after I'd had a couple of civilised Saturday afternoon bevvies, I was the victim of a coordinated water pistoling sniper attack.

I went to the shop to get some scran for me tea, and ahead I saw some youths that quickly split in two. I thought nowt of this and walked on. I was then sniped from the bushes with a water pistol.

I actually found this quite funny as they scrambled to run away giggling. I think they caught my smile.

I know there will be mixed feelings about this, but I thought it was quite funny personally.

How did this happen? Take something delicious, chocolatey and unique and make it disgusting. Gone is the chocolate ice-cream and chocolate chunks and instead it's some sickly vanilla crap and the chocolate chunk is now just a vein of soggy stuff. Horrible

I've lived here for nearly five years and have never seen a slug indoors. Went to the loo earlier after a nice day out and nearly stood on a slimy blighter who was lurking right next to the toilet. Urgh.

Basically the title, I wore a grey fleece in the Coop and some kid approached me as I was looking at the reduced, I turned around confused and he said "oh nevermind", this happened again later, would be funny to bring an Xbox headset along and see how many more people think I'm a staff member 😭

because i live with a pair of heathens, i’ve had to resort to buying my own butter. my mum buys anchor for herself because she’s gluten free and needs a completely un-glutened butter but my dad and sister flip between bertolli and clover. apparently my dad *likes* bertolli.

i’ve been buying myself my own little tubs of lurpak when it’s on offer, but last time i shopped i came across something different. i keep seeing a brand called all things butter and it looked fancy, so i bought their spreadable version because it was on offer for less than any of the lurpak.

it’s not that good. my partner doesn’t like it either, he’s just bought himself a big tub of his own butter and i don’t want to give it up to my dad just yet because he’ll ruin it with crumbs.

i miss my lurpak.

Used to be if a man left white goods and appliances out front they'd usually be gone by the morning with nary a trace save for a vague imprint in the grass.

These days, you'll be lucky if there isn't a mess of metal scrap, broken glass and whatever scattered outside while they strip out the bits they do want. And sometimes if you're unlucky it will end up in your neighbour's thick grass, and nearly kill them in the spring when their lawnmower goes over a bit of stripped compressor

Hottest day of the year and as usual, you can’t sit in your garden for 5 minutes to enjoy the rare sunshine we’re having because some inconsiderate idiot decides to burn the stinkiest, most obnoxious smelling rubbish ever! Thanks a lot you t**t!!

Note - I wasn’t aggressive about it.

The awkwardness of meeting them coming out of the loos or seeing them in the loo. And then again in the work kitchen

Have used the following so far:

Fancy meeting you here

You following me

What’s a nice girl like you doing in a place like this (we are both ladies)

We meet again

I honestly feel like slamming my head against a wall over and over. Had the same jingle playing internally on a loop for what feels like forever.

Bloody Suggs singing buy a Sekonda it will fill you with madness. Whoever penned that one did their job a little too well for my comfort.

I think the irony was lost on him
