But this is not to prevent theft(which is not a problem), but to make the customers put the trolleys back in their place.

Don't you have such an arrangement in Britain?

We also pay for bags, btw.”

Supermarkets near canals often use such a system here.

Teenagers have to decide whether to lose £1, for a moment's fun, pushing the trolley into the water, or buy another can of Carlsberg Special Brew

In the past week I have received three emails each purporting to be sending me either a 52" tv, iPhone or CK perfume which apparently I have won, thanks to Black Friday and Amazon. All I need to do is pay £2 to claim the prize. I've ignored all three. They're sure to be spam or a hoax. Or are they? Should I be kicking myself for not following them up?

Did the words "Massive Yacht" appear anywhere?

Hey Harvey, I thought you went everywhere in your chauffeur driven Lexus LS460?

No, you should kick yourself if you do follow them up.

My neighbours have a wreath made out of baubles on their front door - it's been there since about the 10th Nov. Aren't these people bored of the tat by the time Christmas comes around?

My TTTAI this week is... we have a problem in the retail unit round the corner. Since Home Bargains moved onto the site, I have seen four different dirty nappies left in various places in the car park over the space of 4 or so months and the last one I nearly stepped on getting out of the car. I went on social media to plead with the residents of my town not to leave human waste in the carpark...and was turned on by people who were unhappy that I hadn't had the "good citizenship" disposed on the nappies myself! There just seem to be this trend on social media of everyone virtue signalling and upping the morality stakes to ridiculous levels. "I'd have picked it up, I change my babies nappy 8 times a day, blah,blah" said one person. Good for you - I'm not handling a strangers shitty nappy or taking it home - and because of this, I am now the bad guy for 'complaining but not doing anything about it'. Talk about missing the point!

If you kno something sounds too good to be true, it probably is.

A queue of cars sitting at traffic lights on a dark and rainy night and all of the drivers of said cars sitting there with their bloody foot on the brake pedal rather than pulling their handbrakes on.
Don't they realise how blinding three rear brake lights are when you are sitting directly behind them???
Tossers.

A skateboard-hugging train passenger who didn't make no move towards the doors as he thought that someone else was going to open them for him to get off and then holding everyone else up further from disembarking because, when on platform, he couldn't discard his empty bottle in the train bin (so he could skateboard down the platform hands-free) because someone was blocking it. There were bins on the platform but more importantly we wanted to get off at the same stop, not the next one!

Just been biting some skin off my hand (bad habit I know) but for the first time ever, I tried to bite too much and now I have a huge blood blister there and I just can't shake off the feeling I felt when I bit, it was like a weird crunch and I watched it fill with blood. I keep getting shivers.

Having an ad before every video when watching/listening to a YouTube playlist. They are skipable but it's still annoying.

Those track suit bottoms lots of young guys are wearing at the moment, that look like they just don't fit, all sort of low crotch and ill fitting

Just when I had found a lovely hair stylist who understood exactly what I wanted I spotted this on my Facebook page:

PLASTIC FANTASTIC
Polite Notice to all our Clients
As from 1st January Segais will be going cashless.
We will accept all major bank cards and credit cards (accept American Express)
Thank you for your understanding.

I commented: Now, for me that is not good news. I often prefer to pay by cash. There must still be many people who do not have a bank account and at least with cash you know its a genuine payment. Please reconsider. 😕

Oh, look, I've had a reply:
Thank you for your feedback. Unfortunately we find that not all cash is genuine payment and we feel that we want to remove the risk of cashing up for our team. I am happy to hear your reasons for paying by cash. Feel free to message Charlotte Woodley we would welcome further feedback.

My Dad used to work in a furniture factory - he got sandpaper cuts.



What's annoying me lately is bus drivers, I've noticed that for some strange reason after about 10pm they all seem to pull-up 5 to 10 feet short of the actual bus stop.
