Default Re: Gripe of the day - What is yours?

I have a MASSIVE Toblerone in my desk drawer that was like the dirty you see at the airport. I'm trying to limit myself to two chunks a week. But today I had a headache and was craving chocolate, so I had 2 chunks one after the other. Medicinal chocolate you understand.

What kind of toblerone? Normal one? Or fruit and nut? Dark ones are rank. White ones are nice tho!
I wonder what food will be like - Cathay Pacific. Doubt it's pizza unfortunately.

Normal or white Toblerone are great!

Todays gripe is meeting ex colleagues who are not much older than me, but have retired, really gets me down.

lazy feckers who sneak off up stairs to watch tv, when the dirty dishes need putting in the dishwasher after ive cooked tea. Really fecks me off.

I'm not much of a chocolate eater. It often goes past is best before date before I've eaten it.

Not a problem. Take the temperature with a clamp on probe and periodically clear the filter on the TMV. It's all covered in the guidance notes to the Regs.

Default Gripe of the day - What is yours?

At an international airport. In transit to Australia.
The local people have no concept of consideration to others.
Strangers standing closer to me in a queue than I do to my wife (in public company)
Taking up entire rows of chairs with bags.
Shouting a conversation in their mobile phones. I have no idea what was being said but anyone who understands the language would do. Didn't seem to be anything other than a normal conv, just very loud!
