Ed Sheeran who uses the same barber as Boris, put him and his tedious monotonous songs in Room 101

I walked past the pub in our town, nice day and people sitting outside enjoying a quiet beer and a chat. Standing in the middle was a bloke talking loudly on his phone, effing every other word, wearing a pink shirt and a glossy pink tie. I want to put him him.

Standing in the middle was a bloke talking loudly, he just shru on his phone, effing every other word, wearing a pink shirt and a glossy pink tie. I want to put him him. I think that anyone who chat incessantly on their mobiles whether they swear or not, are just a pain. Especially on trains where they insist on relating the minutia of their life Was onetime in a supposed quiet carriage where mobiles are banned and there was a young woman who never stopped. When the guard/manager arrived to check the tickets I drew his attention to her, he just shrugged his shoulders and wandered off

No, it's not the washing. It just means you are well and truly back 😞

Waiting in our surgery for the Flu jab and there are notices everywhere "PLEASE TURN OFF YOUR MOBILE PHONES" I had already turned mine off before entering, however there were a few sitting there chatting away on their phones.

Two possible reasons GP's surgeries these days have lots of sophisticated electronic equipment which mobiles may interfere with For the peace and quiet of others waiting to see their doctor who do not want to hear or are interested in the minutia of other's lives

Exactly right Bryan. There is very complex equipment in surgeries these days, apart from that it is showing respect for others too. Some people are so ignorant that they never think of respect for others anyway.

Waiting in Specsavers! 10:20 appointment but still here at 10:45. No eye puff, no weird spot the blip, no nothing. Plenty people about being busy doing nowt it looks like. :/
On the upside I've managed to get on here with my phone, so that's a first.

I too have noticed that my Specsavers appointments are never on time these days, and their staff are faffing about. You also used to be able to walk in if you had a problem, and adjustment perhaps for a bad fit and sore nose, and get it sorted. Now it's "Do you have an appointment"? "Had I known my nose would be sore I would have made an appointment" but they don't see the sarcasm Like all thee slick new companies, grown too big for their boots perhaps

I've recently changed to Specsavers. My old optician still uses those puffs and outdates equipment. Specsavers are all computerised now. They saved a pal of mine's sight recently when they spotted something and referred him to the hospital where he had an operation 2 days later.

Surely they are franchises? There may be a good deal of variance between branches/optometrists.

Road works: Today I headed for the coast with my grandkids. A journey that would usually take about 90 minutes took over 150 minutes. Every 10 miles or so there was road works with tailbacks for miles. A beautiful day with blazing sunshine in fact in Rhyl it was showing 20C. We had a lovely lunch, did some shopping then headed back inland where we were in more delays.
