Campaigns to have a new law after a 1 in a million event. Particularly when the campaign is to name the new law after the victim. Shit happens in life.

Fat cunts riding horses. What you put in your mouth is your business but expecting an animal to suffer for someone’s greed nah. PS. For the record, I am overweight and I don’t even like horses.

Pharmacists, chemist to us foc's.

They are currently moaning about how much the govt. doesn't pay them. It's a pity they don't, won't or can't do their job 8ndtead of moaning.

My daughter in law is over from Australia, she is breastfeeding her 7 month old daughter.
She went into our local chemist and asked for an anti histamine that was safe for breastfeeding.
The assistant said she'd have to go to her doctors. After the D.I.L. explained she was visiting this country and didn't have a doctor the woman went and asked the chemist, who told her to ask the nearest doctor to treat her as an emergency patient and get a prescription.

My son googled it and went to Tescos where he bought some off the shelf.

We are told that pharmacists are trained and should be used as the first point of call. Maybe this useless woman was a one off but to me it sums up the British free loading couldn't give a shit attitude.

I'm also going to post something in the Manchester airport thread. In short. Within 2 days of being here, my D.I.L. is very disappointed with this country.

I do have a little bit of sympathy with pharmacists/chemists, call them what you like. All that training and by day 2 of your first job, you realise your job description is exactly the same as an Argos shelf picker.

I remember when chemists actually sold chemicals.

Go in now and ask for a bottle of sulpher - they look at you as if you're mad. I think mine has everything prepared and bagged offsite and they just act as a collection point, pretty much.

Except Argos are more likely to have it in stock.

And make them Dames just to buy the gullible public.
Look at me, I'm a Prime Minister that understands the hurt and the wrong done to you. Aren't I great.

If it’s on a channel that has adverts, when they go to the break they tell you what’s coming up after the break, then when they come back from the break they tell you what was on before the break.

Just fucking get on with the programme!

We've flown to Sydney today for our cruise to Singapore. We're in a hotel for 2 nights. Cruise is on the 3rd.

Someone just posted on Facebook that Royal Carribbean has cancelled the cruise due to unforeseen circumstances.

Wife nearly had a heart attack. And read it out to me.

Then 10 minutes later it was.... April fool

Cunts.

We booked a trip to Cuba back in Sept. Everyone wanted to go on April 1st but I said no, it'll get cancelled as an April fools joke.
Everyone laughed at me and we booked anyway.
Well here we are, 6 mos later and guess what? Cancelled and moved to April 3rd.

Airlines ffs.
Booked 10day Air BnB in Rhodes late August ages ago and knew the airlines who would match the dates.
EasyJet £140 out but £240 back per person.
Shopped around and by going a day earlier I get a hotel and have actually saved £100 each too - crazy pricing system

 

[Stato]

I don't know if it's been covered but cafes and fast food places that have there menu on a screen that changes and shows ads for their own products.
So you have to stand and wait to get an idea of what they have.
Show me the fucking menu!!

Had an email today from the water...your annual bill is now on-line.

Tried to log on but what I thought was my password isn't correct so I clicked forgot password.

Email back not with a reset button as everyone else does but asking for my favourite band (no idea, what I put originally as I have a varied musical taste and would have been what I was 'into' that day) to verify who I am!!!! You've emailed me on my email address FFS.

Currently waiting for a reply from their contact us box. Wankers.
