Stupid little things that bug you

In McDonalds with my lad and this bellend hands me a lukewarm coffee that had obviously been sat there waiting for hours.

I made him get me another one, and the replacement one was even worse. Unfortunately, I was too British to ask for another
 
The amount of restaurants that don't serve regular coke anymore. I personally don't like the taste of diet coke or coke zero, and sometimes I just need a regular coke. I include city in this, you can't get one at the etihad.
 
I can't find a rack of pork ribs anywhere. Even my local butcher gets everything basically prepared somewhere else. I can't get a full brisket either, i mean come on. I ordered a brisket from the butcher and it came as just the flat with no fatcap rolled and tied just as you get in an asda lets say. I even said i just want the primal cut, no trimming, ill do all that but apparently that is to much to ask.

Ribs are seemingly all cut into individual ribs everywhere i have looked, moggies, asda, tesco, waitrose, coop, everywhere. Am i just looking at the wrong shops or something? If they are in a full rack then they are already vacuum sealed and cooked with a glaze already on the damn things. I feel like everyone is laughing behind my back here hiding them.

I just bought a new smoker and want to give this big bugger a first use worthy of the damn thing. Well i am calling Hazeldines and Norbury farms butchers who are a 2min walk from my old mums back in the Grove tomorrow to see if they can sort me out.

Rant over!

A man in pork rib poverty
Have you tried the any of the farm shop/organic type places mate ?
My lads been a butcher for the last 20 years, I’ll speak to him later and find out what’s going on if you let me know what it is exactly what you’re looking for .

Im am going to a few today mate to see whats what. I can probably sort the ribs but a full untouched brisket (fat cap on) is like rocking horse shit. So if you have time to ask about that i would be eternally grateful sir.

No worries mate and let me know how you get on.
For what it’s worth (as I may be stating the obvious) but going from previous conversations with my lad, anything they can trim off and sell separately making a bit more profit they will do, literally nothing goes to waste anymore, which may account for you struggling to find what you want, good luck though.
