Sorry to hear that Marcel, and I hope you can all reform into another band.

I waited in for a parcel delivery today. Saw the Royal Mail parcels van come and go at the usual time, around 12.45, and no parcel, so thought it must be here tomorrow instead.
Come 14.30, I nip into the bathroom, then pass the front door about three minutes later, only to find a card, left by another RM delivery, noted at 14.30, stating a parcel delivery had been attempted, and I can pick it up at the local sorting office, about 1.5 miles away, tomorrow !
Can't RM personnel knock hard enough for house occupants to hear, and wait at least a few seconds until they get an answer ?
Bl**dy irritating !!

And here we have the reason as to why Dogs hate the mailman!!!
 
The mailman here is about the same caliber. Also, if he can't get the mail to fit in the box, he doesn't set it on the porch, he literally crams it into the boxand forces the door shut.

I'm sure there are many civil servants who are genuinely good people, but it's the other 99% that irritate the eff out of me...
 
Once again it's that time of the year for the most dreaded and hated thing on earth, Christmas shopping!!! I hate Christmas shopping!!!

The joy of the internet can help you there. Here just about everything will be delivered with the exception of SWMBO's gift which will be a 'click and collect'. She has better built in scanners than any airport security and any delivery would be immediately assessed and I'd be rumbled. She can detect a model kit before the postie has even walked up the drive. I'll smuggle her present in when she's out :)
Cheers
Steve

Yes, the Internet helps you avoid the crowds of zombified masses that wander the malls and stores, paying more attention to thier cell phones than what is going on around them, but it's not having a clue what to get anyone that annoys me even more.

Ever have one of those days?
Today's the day but not as bad as this!
 
Having to listen to Stevie Nicks beller the song "Silent Night" on the radio at work this morning. That makes 3 times having to hear her version this Christmas season, that's 3 times more than one person should have to endure.
 
The Taliban and North Korea. The Taliban butchers babies and the North Koreans commit cyber terrorism over a movie they don't like and then threaten to actually attack movie theaters. Considering how our "brave leadership" caved, I can't help but wonder what is next. Over night "Uncle Sam" became "Aunt Samantha".
 
They are not doing "God's will"...they are young men, who have been pawns in power schemes since the dawn of mankind. The Bolsheviks, the NSDAP, the PLA and on and on and on....all impressionable youth who have been misguided into an ideology that only benefits those elite few, who are behind the curtain pulling the strings.

The latest example is "ISIS" who's goal is to resurrect an ancient Caliphate aka Kingdom which is nothing more than a power scheme to launch a few elite to the top of the pile and lord over it's subjects with absolute power.
