Oh Tui! I hope our dogs get on because mine is in here again!
I was running about mad this morning trying to find my left boot. Found it in the garden, soaking wet with a big slug in it!
May I join you in leanage?

Marks and Spencer! They've stopped selling my favourite red at my local branch and it looks like I'll only be able to get it through the mail order, which means buying it by the case... which would be all right if I could afford to buy it by the case, but I bloody well can't And it's not fair, because it is simply stunningly good... in fact, one review I stumbled on this evening (no, not stumbled in a drunk way) compared it favourably with wines ten times its price. Grrr. |

E.ON - I've just had an electricity bill for my flat for £532.68 for Sept-Jan! It wouldn't be so bad, but I've only been in there a total of 18 days since mid May last year ! The guy came to read the meter whilst I was staying there for a few days in December and I haven't been there since (i.e. his reading should be fairly accurate) but they have estimated it anyway. My friend with a key is on holiday atm so now I have to drive a 400 mile round trip to let them in so that they can read it again on Friday The only things on are a fridge and a security light. I think that the guy downstairs must be tapping onto my supply! |

I'd like to drop kick my wedding photographer into the sin bin. Any dogs that are currently in the sin bin should feel free to use her as a chew toy! Since I'm talking about my wedding photographer you probably think I'm a bride or a newlywed, but no ... I've been married for two and a half years! We haven't received our album yet. I gave her an ultimatum at the beginning of December 2008. I said I would file a claim with the Better Business Bureau if we didn't receive the album by the end of January 2009. The layout was done she just had to have it printed. I think a month and a half is a generous amount of time to have something printed and shipped. She said: "This is not something that can be done over night.... Â I will make every effort, for you to have your album by the end of Jan....." Firstly, overnight? Overnight??? It's been two and a half years, not "overnight." Secondly, who writes like that when they're corresponding with a client who has paid them thousands of dollars? Was she trying to convey that she was so bored with me that she was falling asleep at the end of each sentence with all those periods? It's fine to relax your grammar or be creative with periods, exclamation points, and question marks, ect. when you're conversing personally, but if you're conversing professionally, you should do it properly. Thirdly, my deadline has come and gone and she hasn't bothered to send an update. Fourthly, her compositions truly suck. I had to tell her to change stupid stuff like cropping an arm out of the side of a picture or not putting my niece's face (cute little flower girl, only person facing the camera) on the fold of a page and she got pissy with me for pointing it out. I shouldn't have had to point it out! Do your effin' job! Fifthly, She took a picture of two of my male friends in the bathroom in front of the urinals during the reception. Does she seriously think it's okay to take a picture of people while they're in the bathroom? Does she seriously think I want a pictures of my friends in front of urinals in my wedding album? Aww, here's me and my mom! Ooohh and me and my dad about to walk me down the aisle!!! Awww! and my adorable nieces in their flower girl dresses! Yeah, and that's TJ and Steve about to take a piss. I don't think so. Sixthly, I hate her.... I hate her......... I hate her...................... Seventhly, thanks to everyone who made it this far. I really appreciate it. I needed to get that little temper tantrum out.  |

Goodness, she sounds like a nightmare! A very 'alternative' way of doing everything, it seems.
I'd file that claim pronto. She sounds like a good kick up the backside is what she needs.

She deserves to be put out of business and - well I won't say it, but you can probably guess. I hates rip-off artists like her. I hope she goes out of business. You didn't deserve that at all, Barb. You deserve satisfaction. You should file a claim against her. That's too much time she wasted and too much money that she should have given your photos to you alot sooner. I'm sorry that happened to you.

That is unbelievably bad... I was going to say service, but that's just not the right word at all! She should be paying you, not the other way round! My brother had his proofs at the reception and the finished album about a week after he put in the final order! And that was before digital photography! There's absolutely NO excuse for ruining someone's wedding day like that. Take her to the cleaners!
*is tempted to go and buy a dog to lend you*

People who think it's ok to slag your best friends and family off to you and expect you to stand back and agree. Well missy, you've got another thing coming! And people who are intent on upsetting others, then making out they're the innocent ones and playing the victim. I hate them! |

I can't stand people like that either.
My biggest pet peeve right now is PayPal. If they answer my question in a timely manner, I might consider taking them back out. Right now, I hates them.

I would like to put a lady in here that is constantly getting on my nerves for posting about herself The world does not revolve around you darling, you do not OWN him neither do you KNOW him, you can't make assumptions about thier mental heath if you don't know them Grrr. Like someone once said, "Get your head out of your ar*e!". And to that person who I quoted - "Save yourself. Overt your eyes" |

People who think it's cool to howl round the corner from a gritted street into an ungritted street with cars parked on either side as though the roads were dry!
That was the point at which I moved my car off the road and into the car park, whether there was a legal space or not!

Thank you for all the offers to send your now good dogs back to the sin bin to attack. I appreciate it. And Mayfayre for wanting to buy a dog to help with the cause. You're a star.
I did file a complaint, but I feel like a bad person for doing so. I know I'm not, but I still feel likes I am. My complaint is going to reflect on her for three years. I hope it makes her change her ways.
She didn't ruin my wedding in any way. I love my wedding. It was the best day ever. I shared it with my friends and family and the best boy ever. We were all dressed up super fancy. I love love love my dress. I want to frame it. If I could relive a day over and over forever, that would be it.

I hate it when people drive like they are invincible in bad weather. It doesn't matter how new your tires are, they're still going to slide on ice ... just because you have all wheel drive it doesn't mean it's impossible for you to skid off the road during a snow storm.

Putting work in (yet again)... this time for a different reason... turned up at 9.00 today, to find no power in the office, no heat, lights, phones, computers... couldn't do any work at all, and boss made us all sit in the freezing cold for hours waiting for it to be fixed! |

There sure is MF... not sure what it is, but we were below it this morning! They don't give a damn about H&S here! In fact, if I had to list all the H&S rules this office contravenes, I'd be here all day... they had an office junior up a ladder yesterday, and she's two months pregnant! |
