On health and safety:
A red traffic light means "stop". ( Wihin Road safety rules, so does an orange one) A little green man means "Cross". It doesn't mean if nobody has put a foot on the crossing you can please yourself and just go! This morning I approaced the crossing behind Le Mans Crescent. A woman,ten feet in front of me had pressed the button and the green fella appeared. She crossed and just as I put a foot on the crossing, White Van man decided it didn't apply to him, and almost took my foot off despite the lights glaring red at him. My language was not fit for sensitive ears. Fxcking dickhead.

Not angry, just somewhat perplexed.......speaking to people at various companies.....getting your name wrong...you correct them...yet they still insist on calling you the wrong one throughout the call.

You'd think that a name like Annoyed Grunt would kind of stick in their mind too.Annoyed Grunt wrote:Not angry, just somewhat perplexed.......speaking to people at various companies.....getting your name wrong...you correct them...yet they still insist on calling you the wrong one throughout the call.

Re: Today I'm angry about.....
I wouldnt say angry, just intrigued and a bit concerned really - but are we in the middle of some kind of media blackout about recent events in Iran here? Only a few websites and literally just one analyst on television has made any reference to a series of what seem to be covert attacks on Iranian nuclear sites and personnel in the last few weeks and months - possibly linked to Israel and the West

Meanwhile, a US unmanned spyplane has been shot down over Iran in the last couple of days. Are we already embroiled in an undeclared war here?!

As for the drone,
http://www.defensenews.com/story.php?i= ... =AME&s=AIR" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;Loren Thompson, an analyst at the Lexington Institute, Arlington, Va., said that the Iranians have no way to detect or engage the stealthy Sentinel.
"It would be almost impossible for Iran to shoot down an RQ-170 because it is stealthy; therefore, the Iranian air defenses can't see it," Thompson said. "Partly for the same reason, it is exceedingly unlikely that they used a cyber attack to bring down the aircraft."

Re: Today I'm angry about.....
Had a dentist app. for tommorow (emergency one) at 8:15am but just cancelled as it's 1am and I probably won't get up.
Hope the pain stops so I can not get it removed! (I will have to though
)
It's the right Wisdom, and it's loose. I just got the next one next to it removed.
Vitasoy Soy Milky Chocolate has vanished and is not on their website!
I did find some old non-chilled ones today at the local IGA. Next week I plan to buy them out! (which is stupid as I'll get more addicted)
I am expecting a call from Vitasoy within the next week so they can tell me if and why it's gone! I'll be gutted if it is!
