Bill, it's been said many times over the last few years, the British media no longer report the news, they make it.

As you say their report will create panic buying and they of course will be there to report on the empty shelves.

Bread and milk shortages are fine but if the seedless grapes and Aubergenes get stuck if the strait of Hormuz then the public will be fuming.

The BBC currently doing an exposé on illegal immigrants posing as gay to avoid deportation.
Not sure why the BBC takes it upon itself to do this type of underground infiltration and why aren't the authorities aware of it?

especially the f**king Lib Dems with their b*llocks 'Winning Here!' boards - I've come really close to wandering around with a black marker pen to scribble NOT at the top many times when I'm out walking the dog!
 
Paying by card. The machine gets foist into your vicinity and you're asked to tap without the amount you're paying for being clearly visible. Usually upside down. Its rudeness and the transaction is entirely based on trust of the under payed operative who could be tapping 50 quid in for a pint of milk and some bogroll
 
The Mother in law. She is small and annoys me.

Last week for her 93rd birthday I offered to take her and the Mrs for Sunday Lunch. I am that sort of guy.

A new carvery had recently opened and booked a table for last Sunday. She seemed happy to be treated. MRS Asa drove and of course M in L didnt like the route.

Got her a drink and Menu, 3 Meat choices and a dozen veg options.

She announced then she didnt eat much at lunch, I said never mind we could bag any meat she didnt eat, that didnt go down well and she refused the meat options for Veg Wellington( I buy lots of meat for her weekly)
She would only have 3 veg on her plate aswell.
When the veg Wellington arrived she looked at it as though it was an old boot.
"That is no Beef Wellington"
"No enid its veg Wellington" I explained.

Wouldnt touch it the old Cow, Carrots were too hard, Mash was too creamy.
She managed a few mouthfuls, and pushed the plate away, spent 20 minutes calling the overweight customers in a voice much too loud.
As we got back to the car she said "didnt think much of that place."
I muttered "thats ok you wont be coming back"

I've been designing HVAC systems all my working life and it's a scientific fact that Women generally feel colder than men due to distinct physiological differences, particularly regarding body composition and circulation.
Open plan offices are a bitch, you design for 21c but the ladies continually turn stats up and men turn them down, it becomes a war, eventually the system goes haywire.
