minor things that make you fume


I hope it's one where liam punches the littler one, and then the littler one swings his guitar at him and crackers him in his big stupid mouth.

Then they disband and have to pony up all that dynamic ticket pricing cash and end up bankrupt. That'd entertain.
Luke's playing a darts tournament that night and, to the best of my knowledge, doesn't play guitar.
 

8:34am
There's a bang, like someone punching the metal garage door, so it hums like a gong.
Then another one, is someone trying to break in?
bang, again. Fox* sake! bang.

I don't need this.

bang.

next door but one is having their roof reroofed, it's roof tiles being winged into the empty skip.

Just wonderful. Thanks ever so much.
 
Went for a run earlier, felt a sharp pin prick on my arm, quickly brushed it off but didn’t see what it was. Assume a horsefly or wasp. Forearm has swelled right up and really itchy. Fantastic.

Well, this has taken a turn and a half. The firm has been in and got the job sorted in 3 days. Roof off, skip filled, old felt off, old batons off, new better than felt on, new batons, all new skin of brand new tiles. Lovely.

She's mid to late 70's. On her own.

11 grand including vat no less. But wait, apparently there is a main roof joist rotten through and sagging, it'll have to come out and be replaced. 1 guy runs the show, 2 lads his skivvies. No one has seen a beam come out, no one has seen a new beam go in. There's no old beam even cut up in sections in the skip out front. No one saw a new delivery and there's been no crane.

An additional 13 grand.

They've 'kin conned her out of £24k!

If you are a bit older and feel pressured or obliged to get some work done on your property, either ask a neighbour to be around to lend an ear or better yet some family to run it by as well.

When the fat twit* knocked on earlier beaming with a sunshine smile because there's a couple of busted tiles on the roof I'm under, I thought he was feeling pleased for himself. I know why now.

Roofers really are an amoral and antisocial lot.

Two doors down has been having their roof done and the lads doing it have been talking/shouting at full volume peppering every sentence with more expletives than actual words. And telling each other about every argument they've had with full on dramatic recreation. There's been 3 of them and they seemingly take it in turns to work as the other two stand around and rack up the swear count.

Absolutely no self awareness. They've managed to make scaffolders look socially well adjusted.
 
When people go to the loo, actually wash their hands, amd proceex to walk out the door having left their wet hands all over the door handle, gets right on my man boobs that does
