Steady @punkdoc.......hope you are all organised for tonight, COYS and all that. I don't really mind who wins, but l do have a soft spot for Pochettino , his reaction at the end of the semi final was quite something. Anyway, back to being curmudgeonly, but it's quite difficult on such a lovely day.
I can fix that Annie.  Went to plant toms in the other half of the polytunnel which has been under cardboard for a year.  The soil is so baked I can't get a spade in and when I try with the trowel I just get blisters on my palm. Added to that, it's full of fat white bindweed roots so I've got the sprinkler on and then, when it's soaked in, it'll all need forking over and sifting thru. 6m x 1.5ish.  Lovely.
I've just given up trying to watch a BBC news report on the television because of the 'background ' music. It wasn't even relevant to the report. It seemed like that generic loop music that you get in shops and restaurants that you never return to. If it's on their website, I turn the sound off and read the subtitles. But why should I have to? What on earth do they think this sound fog adds to a report?
I've been aggravating a women on Ebay I think. She's selling a DFS armchair with the auction starting at £75. This is the 5th time she's listed it with no interest. There's a 'make an offer' option so I offered £50 and she came back with a counter offer of £75 Why have the option to make an offer if you won't accept less than the auction starting price? I revised my offer a bit but she's just ignoring me now.
I like how people selling DFS stuff say 'costs £600 from DFS' in their adverts. No one in the history of buying furniture has paid the full price at DFS. They have a sale on for 364 days of the year from what I can see.
If you can keep your head, while those around you are losing theirs, you may not have grasped the seriousness of the situation.
With four years interest free credit and don't start paying until after Christmas, their furniture is probably in a skip before the payments are finished.
Apart from our sofas, beds, new kitchen cupboards and appliances and one inherited rosewood military chest all our furniture is second hand from "junk" shops or flea markets. I bring it home, clean it, fix it if needed, feed it and smarten it up with either a polish or some paint and bingo - good quality and lasts ages and can be moved, unlike IKEA/DFS and the rest.
