This morning it took me over twice as long as usual to drive to work  . Not blaming anyone in particular but it seems to coincide with the schools starting again.
During this mornings commute, some &^%$ tooted their horn at me because they were trying to merge into the lane I was in and there wasn't room because the lane was bumper to bumper of stop-start traffic. The lane i was in split into two at the roundabout and I stayed in the middle lane whereas the &^%$ was trying to cross the road markings into the lane. I quite clearly had right of way because I wasn't changing lanes, and I had been in a slow crawling queue whereas they had zoomed along a freely flowing lane and tried to push in at the last minute. £*&^$% bastards wind me up sometimes.

And yesterday, I made myself a cup of tea and drank it, and later in the day went to refill the kettle for another cup. I then noticed a cooked disintegrating slug on the limescale trapping mesh in the spout  . Needless to say I didn't have my 2nd cup of tea and the mesh was immediately scrubbed under a hot tap. Ewww.

Oyoyoy Mike not pleasant at all, at least it was cooked!
The traffic is what we are not looking forward to when we go to the UK next month. Rush hour here is three cars at once around here, just a little different!

Funny, isn't it – how normal courtesy goes out of the window for some people when they get in their cars.
Why is it they always want MY bit of space?????

The forum would be rather dull, I suspect.
We would miss him loads – and where else would I get a tin hat?

Oh BS, you have cheered me up! I've just had a very stressful sight test which took over an hour, came home to find cleaning lady still here and then couldn't stop her talking for ages when all I wanted to do was lie down in a darkened room. Thank you honey.

It's a Bordeaux Superior by Benoit Valerie Calvet at £5.99 – I needed cheering up as I said elsewhere.  That reminds me, I must open it and drink some.

Hey Bobquail…….
Just had a severe tenalady moment reading your post….. it reminded me of when my son had to go on a hike with scouts and when we filled his water bottle a rather large brown slug floated to the top!!!!!! needless to say he did not like the extra protein ration and has not drunk out of it since
