Stupid little things that bug you

Commentators saying two seconds AFTER a penalty has been scored:

“Never in doubt”

Yes, it was in doubt you utter twat. If it wasn’t in doubt, why don’t any of you state the fucking obvious dullards tell us that BEFORE he takes the fucker?
 
When my daughter is watching Tick-Tock or Youtube, seeing the size of the houses/rooms abroad - mostly in America.
Unsure if American’s earn more money or houses are cheaper - or both?
Some of the kitchens are bigger than my whole flat, and the swimming pools just take the piss

Generally houses and their respective rooms are larger in North America Man-chester copperpot.

More space to build would be one reason, although smaller 'boxes' are being built these days over here, especially in the larger city areas. A case of jamming in as many properties as possible into the space, resulting in much smaller homes and gardens (for those fortunate enough to get much of a garden). Many are just rows of town houses.

Although I don't have one, swimming pools are very popular. We usually get long hot summers, so we can take full advantage of them.

Not sure whether we earn more money or not, but I'd say we'd generally have a better standard of living...........not as good as it used to be, but still quite good.

Houses have become very expensive and it's extremely difficult for the young one's to get onto the property ladder.

Of course it's all caused by BARCON and his buddies selling up their sumptuous, exclusive city properties and moving out to live here for a better quality of life. Able to buy a big house and still have money in the bank. Selfish and inconsiderate really. :)

Haha. I live in a 1000’ bungalow mate. But, my plan was to sell this place and move north at some point. Unfortunately, it would cost me the same as I would get for this place.
The only other option is to move much further north than I wanted to.
Looking at a trailer up at Bark lake in a year or two.

Just teasing you Barcon.

That's the problem these days. You sell your property in the city, but property is so expensive here now that when everything is considered, it's probably not worth the effort, unless it was for retirement. If you did move, you'd have no chance of moving back.

Bark Lake would be too far out for me. Although I'm a country boy, I do prefer to be close to civilization!! :)

I know you were messing about mate ; )

Bark lake Would just be a summer thing but we always thought we’d end up around Sutton/lake Simcoe area. That’s not feasible now unless I build my own place.

Not sure what it’s like around Woodville, Gooderham etc these days But I always liked those areas as well.

Should have bought in creemmore/Shelbourne years ago.

Creemore/Shelbourne would have been a sound investment, but hindsight is a marvelous thing.

I don't know about up in Gooderham, but Woodville prices have risen substantially, as with any areas located that sort of commuting distance from the big city. Although the property market has slowed down in recent month, looking at the asking prices are still basically a guide these days.

Building your own would be a good option, but even land prices have shot up and so have the council permits/licences and other money grab BS expenses as well.

Many people who supposedly live in poor and rough areas in America live in large detached houses with front, back and two side gardens.
 
Ringing up your car insurance to make a change to policy but the person who I need to speak to isn’t at their desk and will ring me back.

My local Co-Op has an "Express" check-out counter. Express!? Customers, buying 'phone top-ups, dithering over scratch cards, customers with more than 10 items. To buy fags, the assistant unlocks the "special" cabinet, hunts around, "Not got them, have these instead?", re-locks, customer changes mind, "20 not10".
I did email regional head office pointing out it was hardly "Express". They did respond stating they would do something about it and they did... they removed the "Express" sign.

”20 not 10”
Tens went out with the ark and you can’t buy five woodbines in a sweets bag no more.
