What Annoyed You Today? (3 Viewers)

The bl**dy Royal Mail!
I got a very small package of resin parts delivered from Canada, and there was a Customs charge, which I expected. But 60% of this fee, the total of which amounted to almost 50% of the value of the parts, was a so-called 'handling charge' from Royal Mail !!
What bl**dy 'handling charge'? They were delivering the ****ing package anyway, and I'd paid for that service!!
Robbing b@stids - at least even Dick Turpin had the decency to wear a mask !!

I've noticed lately, that shipping anything (be it to a local town here, or to Bulgaria) has become an expensive cluster-f**k...

A good example was last Christmas, my Sweetheart sent me some gifts. When I received the package, it had been poorly retaped after they had opened the package, unwrapped the presents and even opened the envelope that had my Christmas card. The wrapping paper was then stuffed back inside the package, the loose presents dumped back in and the card and envelope crammed back in before the poor tape job, that left huge gaps in the package, barely keeping the contents from spilling out.

All in the name of security. If I had been there and seen this atrocity, I would have probably gone ballistic and ended up in prison after kicking some civil-servant's a$$...

I'm finding the kits I want to buy are reasonable, it is the shipping that usually kills it. Toronto- London 1/32 kit= $42 by Canada Post.

Getting physically sick when reading the news from the Ukraine. Thinking of all those people at Schiphol, not so far away, waiting for some news.

It is hard to stomach even on this side of the pond.

Went to the grocery store and got stuck behind some fat a$$ cow in the parking lot. She was so humongus that her butt needed a license plate on it. Then as I was leaving said establishment some body farted and the stench put me off my feed for an hour.
