Re: Gripe of the day - What is yours?
I read once of a bloke who got his own back on his wife, he dragged her round to every pub in the town and looked inside, and then went back to the first pub and bought a drink....

Re: Gripe of the day - What is yours?
Mine leaves me in the man creche, if she needs my input on selection she does the preselection and then comes to get me.
If she takes to long my opinion may be clouded by Guinness. It helps her remain focused on the job in hand. Sent from an S20 using Tapatalk with that kin cr4p blocked

Needless consumption. A fairly reliable sign of an otherwise empty life.
Sorry if that sounds harsh. It is. |

Re: Gripe of the day - What is yours?
Nose hair! You get along quite happily for many years with hair growing on top of your head, under your arms and the, ahem, private bits. Then, there's a regime change - the hair on the top decides to leave and relocate in your nose where it grows (seemingly) twice as fast as anywhere else. It also starts a colony in your ears for whatever reason and don't get me started on eyebrows.

for those that dont know what a Turkish barber does. first they cut your hair. they then stick hot wax blobs up each nostril with cotton buds like things. while the wax cures they set about burning the hair out your ears with a special extra long cotton bud like thing that is dipped in meths then set alight, they quickly pat the outside of the ear with the extra long cotton bud like thing then put the burning hair out with the other hand. once the ears are done they then rip the wax blobs out your noise to remove nostril hair. none of the above hurts. |

eBay has been very glitchy recently. It's taken me in a loop signing in again and again to access certain areas of the site.
