They do get paid peanuts so have to cut a few corners to make a living, sadly. Is that the fault of the drivers or the Company who won't pay them a proper wage?


Exactly this.. it's a shitty job in a cut-throat low margin business especially if you are an owner-driver. When possible I try an use UPS

Diggs I actually thought she was quite hot.

Must admit Yodel have turned to the same tricks up this way. The drivers cannot speak English either. I did start thinking that wages etc must be way down low and they're cutting corners - the vehicles are shockingly bad.

You can avoid all the Yodel problems by not buying from shops who post stuff by Yodel.

Also works with My Hermes.

If someone is going to use one of the shit delivery companies then I'll take my money and spend it at a shop I know uses one of the better delivery companies. I do not believe that whatever it is you're buying is only available from shitty shops that use Yodel.

women and the question mark. FFS it does not go on every sentence and definitely not x3 either. 'I was at evening class yesterday???' etc. FFS I'm off for a cup of tea.

Punctuation should be used lightly, and those who over-garnish their sentences with the stuff are almost always barking mad and should be shot at dawn.

My personal bĂȘte noire is the exclamation mark. The level of a person's general idiocy and insanity is based on how many exclamation marks they use.

sick and tired of feeling rough!

last 3 weeks felt rough had hacking cough etc but none of usual cold flu symptoms.

cough finally went last weekend.

started with the runny nose at work last night. WTF?

Had a surreal moment on way home last night, about 23:00 approaching traffic lights on red, they intelligent lights they change when detect headlights, off the gas change down to 5th, lights change, on the gas, go to change up and find a false neutral! i cross the junction about 50 in this false neutral, change up and open the throttle.

WTF is that? on the pavement to my left and running in the same direction is a Doe! All this happened in about 200 yards and a few seconds. Feeling rough this morning and wondering if i imagined it all.

What grinds my gears today?

people who use the left lane on a roundabout............to go right!

I was at a two lane roundabout, going right, was in right lane, when the car in the left lane (which actually had road markings saying left lane is left only) who had just got off before me cut straight in to my lane, had to slam the brakes on and use the puny horn on my bike!

....because someone in the left wanted to save a couple of seconds could have caused a crash Evil or Very Mad


lucky I got a bike dashcam, so maybe youtube it....

Agreed - usually to 'beat some queue or other - then they try an filter in. I used to get angry and force the cunts out wide but now I can't really be arsed and just mutter 'tosser'' as they cut in. Have I matured?

I enjoy those instances.

Espescially if you plan for it - knowing full well thats what they are doing. Smile

Let them do it - then filter past them 5 seconds later. As soon as you get to the next minor joining road - stop and let as many cars out in front of you as you like.

Then filter past them too Smile

many lolz had.

Bait and switch jobs on websites.

I'm mostly self employed, but wouldn't mind a few hours employment.

Seen something that would fit quite well. Then, I realise it is exactly the same as an advert I applied for years ago.

It's just a job agency trying to pull contact details in.

I'm on the edge of a hash oil-inflicted precipice of insensible cognitive freefall and generalised extreme cheerfulness ...

I actually did the salty warm water gargle thing this morning...
... and I have been about 50% better today than I have been since Thursday.
But my god, it tastes vile.
(I did put quite a lot of salt in it Laughing )

Yup!
Make what's called a saturated solution - add salt to the point it no longer dissolves into the tepid water.
Gargle and spit and repeat until you give up.
It definitely works. I find that it has a numbing effect too. It's very good for tonsillitis or when teeth are pulled.
I think gargling with the 'other' type of tepid salty liquid would result in cum bubbles.

Some other cyclists. No lights, no hands, no idea about keeping left on shared cycle paths. Generally young males, often wearing dark clothing, with headphones and or two wheeled phone zombies.

W*nkers littering cash machines.
They get print-offs of what they have in the bank and then bin the tickets all over the machines - why not just view it via the screen?
Is this some new way that people brag about what they have in the bank or something?

We live in a society where people will take anything if offered for free, even if they have no need for it.

See "food banks". Anyone in this country who pretends they can't afford food is either stupid or not prioritising properly.


I would don your tin hat and shout 'INCOMING' Laughing
