Messymascot's faith in humanity and ginger safe haven

Hate them, 24 hours a day fight to keep them at bay but when a particularly bad spasm comes, they just don't shift unless I take too many painkillers.
Sick of them but I can't do anything about them.

So last time we spoke I was waiting for shopping. I got a text saying it would be coming between 10-11am, so I sit waiting at 10, 11 comes and still nothing, 11.30 comes nowt, at 11.45, I checked the app and it said delivered by it so I phoned the customer services number. Apparently the van had broke down.

In the past when problems arise, I've had a text message, well this time apparently they sent an email at just after 11, I don't look at my mail all the time and especially when they've used text normally. So they cancelled the delivery. If I wanted it delivering it would've been the day after. In the end I seen my arse and said I'd get a taxi.

Arrived at Tesco, nobody to be seen, there is a number to call to get someone to come out as the comm was broken; it went straight to voicemail. So went back round to customer service, they rang and i was told to go back around. When I got there, my shopping was still all loose in the crates they deliver it in. I kicked off that I had to get a taxi, due to their error/breakdown.

So stood in a car park in the sun packing my mainly frozen shop. proper fuming i was, got a £20 voucher for next shop but taxi cost £6 so £14 really ffs.

Rant over lol bet you've missed my moaning lol

Honestly T. I don't think I've ever known anybody as unlucky as you. Everything seems to go tits up.

Oh yeah, it's crazy. An old partner of mine said she didn't believe in bad luck, after being with me she changed her mind lol If something can go wrong it usually does and the more excited I am about something, the more chance it goes to pot, it can be draining at times lol

I've just backed Bernardo O'Reilly in the Ayr Silver Cup. No reason, other than he was my favourite character in the Magnificent 7 - as played by Charles Bronson. Mr F is on Snash

I was on Mark's choice. He's the nephew who "chose" not to come on the cruise with me. The jockey had a very distinctive red cap and I believe it came last out of about 25 horses. Should have known better. lol

Just heard that my favourite horse this season, Little Big Bear, is out for the rest of the season. Won a few bob on him this year.

This might be worth a try for @Barnfred 55 next horse race.

Fred, pick a race and get T to list what he belives the finishing positions will for each horse. The reverse it and use it as your betting guide.

I think that's what I've been doing mate since my first race. I'll should pick the horse I think will come last and bet on it lol

Edit. Just done that. Sir Dancealot. 50-1. Just put a very small ew bet on it We'll see if your theory works.

It never won Spadge but it actually ran very well. It was a big race paying out on the first 7, and it came in 9th. But luckily I also had a little each way bet on the winner at 11-1. So a good end to the days betting.

Morning all. Happy birthday to our travelling man, I'm sure you'll be doing something great, enjoy. @fandjango

Got a good feeling we'll win today. I agree B as well the stadium is taking shape nicely.

Well the temperature has taken a bit of a drop the last few days, signs of autumn, dreading what the bills will be.

*DAILY MOAN* - When they installed my vinyl in the kitchen, they haven't fitted it under the fridge properly, it must have been curled over because I couldn't get the fridge out of it's bay. Anyway the long and short of it is I ripped the vinyl in two places struggling to get it out. It's not a huge amount of damage but still.

Have a good day good people.

Do you have a "drip tray" under the fridge? Similar to this because this is a stupid price :-

Electrolux Universal Washing Machine Water Drip Tray Prevent Flooding 45cm | eBay

Avoid leaking drinking cartons spilling on all that fresh food in your fridge. Drops are collected in the trays and run safely to the front, where they become immediately visible before causing any damage. Protects your floor from leaks, scuffs and scratching as well as drips from cleaning...

If you have one it warns if there is a leak but it also lets you get the machine out easier.
