Downstairs neighbours complained that my alarm clock was going off too early.
Funnily enough I agree.

Angry, Scared and Nervous.
Might be getting rid of Foxtel! (No Bolton Matches on tv then.)
I can't! What about the Olympics coming up? I have to keep it!

Oh, and another thing...
Pre-booked train tickets that can be collected from a ticket machine but not from a manned ticket window on a route that doesn't have ticket machines but does have manned ticket windows. Anusses.

Not advocating mass-murder as an entirely positive experience, of course, but it had its moments.

That'd have been anti-social and could have polluted the bacon n' egg.

For the 7000th time, the traffic on the M62 circa the M6 junction. Closed due to an accident.
Two hours to get home and that's pre rush hour.
Avoid.

Re: Today I'm angry about.....
Teapots. Yes, fckg teapots.
They have 2 requirements ;
i. they are watertight .... ie. can hold the water/tea.
ii. they pour.
How fckg difficult can it be to design one to fulfill these requiements ?
Typically (i) is achieved reasonably well.
(ii) however appears to be beyond the wit of man. Pouring tea almost inevitably leads to a trail of liquid onto the work surface/table/cloth as well. The long spout ones work to an extent but the short or no spout ones are bllx.
I may begin a facebook page, a march, occupy a public place .... or simply grumble. I've not decided yet.

I simply can't imagine his reaction when he tries to use a tea-pot and gets tea all over his tu-tu.
