Bren Posted December 22, 2021 Share Posted December 22, 2021 Our dog passed away this morning. When I got up and saw him I knew he would be going to the vets to be put to sleep. While we speaking to the vet he passed away. grogee, cort1977, 155V6 and 30 others 33 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wack Posted December 22, 2021 Share Posted December 22, 2021 Supermarket waste Went into Sainsbury's , big pile of cabbage reduced to 10p because it had 21st on the plastic bag and the leaves were yellowing I worked on markets for 15 years , you'd see the veg traders with a knife cutting the outer leaves off and this is what was underneath , clean and fresh , not in the bin because of a date stamped on a plastic bag tooSavvy, Remspoor, myglaren and 1 other 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

omegod Posted December 22, 2021 Share Posted December 22, 2021 Not grumpy more fucking heartbreaking and heartwarming really, I'm a member of a local facebook page which is basically people giving away stuff, last week or two it's been full of people sorting through their kids toys and clothes for a clear out which is nice but the sheer amount of people who are struggling and are clamouring for bits to give to their own kids is bloody awful. Seems there is also a trend for people buying extra shopping to make up a Christmas dinner kit for a hard up family and offering that up, it really shouldn't be needed in this day and age but sadly it is I fucking love my city Not sure what is up with me lately but this kind of stuff brings out the tears easily Matty, grogee, myglaren and 3 others 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sheffcortinacentre Posted December 22, 2021 Share Posted December 22, 2021 Have a friend middle aged woman (teaching assistant) lives in a one bed flat, drives a 96 Micra, salt of the earth. Does some cleaning on fiddle. Not to have a big screen TV , latest iPhone etc but to make ends meet makes me fucking sick,remind me what year is it in a couple of weeks??? Oh yes 1922! What was she doing at one point during pandemic ??? Delivering food parcels to the "less fortunate" in her car! She's spending most of Christmas at her mum's as she can't afford heating on in her flat! Regularly lie to her re cost of work done on her car she's no idea on price etc. She'd kill me if she knew real cost. Even though it's not much anyway. But it's worth it to keep this unsung angel mobile. Merry fucking Christmas Boris enjoy the party!

Someone collects it and posts it on a website , members request and collect ... some in need ,some just saving food waste . Surprisingly horrendous how much food gets wasted every day by even a small Tesco Express . Good for needy people and for those trying to be green and eco-friendly . But mainly good for Tesco because they don't have to pay for rubbish removal as often !!! My partner did the collection from a local shop and had 5 huge bags full of sandwiches, cakes, bread and then asked if there was any fruit and veg ...... 3 whole crates of bananas , still fresh ,never been on show, not bruised ....36 kg of bananas !!!! Pretty much everything was re-distributed by the following day !!! Nationwide site , adjust your settings and have a look . I think Tesco staff ,then food banks get first pick but often plenty of choices Remspoor, warch, chodweaver and 3 others 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Datsuncog Posted December 23, 2021 Share Posted December 23, 2021 I inadvertently shaved a third of my moustache off, because I was in a rush and didn't notice the plastic length attachment thing had fallen off the clippers. Evening up the other side to match resulted in a stunning likeness to one of European history's more notable political leaders of the first half of the twentieth century. So I've had to take the lot off. There are no pictures, before you ask. twosmoke300, chaseracer, Dyslexic Viking and 21 others 6 18 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bren Posted December 24, 2021 Share Posted December 24, 2021 Just spotted that somebody has hit my car. I suspect this has happened in work - the parking spaces are marked for something the size of a fiat 127. Not even sure about getting it fixed - I may just trade it in. My week just gets better.

Dyslexic Viking Posted December 25, 2021 Share Posted December 25, 2021 I slept badly last night, but even worse I dreamed and this is rarely good, from the little I remember it was a diesel Escort van used as a police car and was involved in a car chase and that I thought this is shit for high speed car chases.

PhilA Posted December 26, 2021 Share Posted December 26, 2021 Seems the green bean casserole had something bad in (checking the FDA website shows numerous recalls of green beans due to listeria) because I just spent the last 3 hours (it's now 6am) cleaning up a scene that looked like The Exorcist.
