What makes you grin? Antidote to grumpy thread

Getting pissed on a school night

When you look in the fridge and there's 3 bottles of Thatchers ( not her) 7.2% cider and a full case of Busweiser Budvar ( not the american crap)and drinking them at 4pm seems like a good idea

This may be regretted at 8am tomorrow

Don’t forget the three grand quarantine fee!!!

First day on the job vaccinating Kiwis today.  Not doing the jabbing, just keeping tabs on them post vax and saving their lives in case.  Quite bizarre to think the people are reliant on the fast reactions of three nurses and a financial adviser with two hours CPR training under his belt but an honour they think I am up to it.

Was quite good.  Resisted the temptation to talk to the punters about their investments and pensions and instead concentrated on getting 400 processed today (quiet).  At the peak we hope to increase this by a factor of three or four.  There were also some shots left over so I had my first one today so am Pfizered up.  No improvement to mobile phone reception as of yet but Bill Gates just rang and asked me if I could put the TV3 News on as there was a story about a goat he wanted to see.

Relevance? It’s the what makes you grin thread, it made me grin this morning.

My brother's partner is a police officer. A DS I think.

Turns out my niece, who is 3 ish, has been going around school threatening kids that her mum will Taser them unless they're nice to her 🤣

Clearly these two individuals have their own ideas about what makes the best Merc!

I'm actually just watching JayEmm, and then Hubnut. Clearly the answer is W124.

It's two polar opposite channels JM is a complete twat but Laurie, the long haired chap with a beard who used to appear on his channel was excellent.  Ian is ace but it's far better without the hairy twat 😂

Looked quite promising from a distance , disappointing closer up though

I saw this on a presentation about idiots in the workplace yesterday, by Christ it rang true!

Surprising variety of typefaces used on this given it dates from 1753*.

The quality of the cabinetmaking is peerless*.

Made from plastic and with bits borrowed from other manufacturers?

A bunch of hipster kids in the pub last night, smoking Sherlock Holmes style pipes.

Makes a change from those steam-bong things that remind  me of a K-series with a radiator full of Vimto.

How does she even know about Tasers? It's not the sort of thing that comes up in conversation with a 3 year old.

Probably saw mummy in uniform  and asked "what's that for" and had an explanation, along with "and you must never touch it"

I've come to the conclusion, uniforms, workwear and the like should be left at work. 

I like the 1980s when old blokes woukd come to work in a shirt and tie and then get changed into overalls, and nurses, who didn't travel to and from hospitals in uniform which must be better for infection control.

I'm sorry but if you don't want nurses to bring their uniforms home with them then we can't be friends

Knowing my brother he said something and she overheard. Or got it from her older sister, or possibly she saw one and asked what it was.

Or maybe heard her Mum, according to her "Mummy shouts at Daddy a lot" 😄

Timex. It's in a draw somewhere.

Best view of the M25 I have had for a while, nicer round leafy Surrey lanes though. 😁
