Insignificant/ Significant things that BYP or just wind you up a little

Not used Travelodge for years ( a bit scummy) but Premier have upped their prices massively in the last few years

Costing me £140 for a room in Manchester for one night in the middle of October ffs

Try the prices in the Chichester one when there's something on at Goodwood.

Dynamic pricing - on steroids.

To be fair, this is right next door to the Manc Arena on a concert night.

Trying to book a room in Dorchester. FFS, has Dorchester changed massively in the last few years?? Cheapest room I have found is 100£

I only want to sleep in it for a night. Not buy it FFS!!!

Lots cheapo on Airbnb

The 60£ one didn't show up when I looked Contact through BIL and outside AirBnB - 25£

30 minute walk from where I need to be that evening, but I'll get a cab back (hopefully!) and all the other places were similar!! LOL

7AM an email arrives from head office. It invites me and nearly 300 other people to a teams meeting at 10AM

This doesn't sound good.

10AM Meeting

"We have ceased payments, you're not getting paid for last month. We have é days to find a solution or we declare bankruptcy"

Fucksticks

I actually only have 2 weeks left on this contract. Apparently the French government will pay our wages but it can take a few weeks. I regard myself as fortunate that if those wages never arrive, I'm OK.

One big PITA is that I leave things in the mobile home over winter, I have done for the last few years. Now I need to take everything away as there's no guarantee this mobile home will even be here next year. I no longer own a LWB campervan. Ive got to get 3 bikes, a motorbike, surfboard, TV etc etc transported with a Dacia duster and single bike trailer!!

[Count Steer]

Hmm...how mobile is this mobile home?

(I assume way too big to tow behind a Duster....).

Surfboard and 2 motorbike's worth of wheels on the roof of the car, biggest bike on the trailer, other 2 in the boot. TV on passenger seat.

Just spent the last hour and half being fucked about in a pharmacy for something they finally said they haven't got. Tossers.

Setting up a new laptop

[MingtheMerciless]

I appear to be on a "list" and in the last week have had about 5 emails with parcel tracking info leading to a bogus DHL website and a minor customs charge.

[Rockburner]

Discovering that my Home & Contents insurance doesn't cover the theft of the Puch.

Yes - I know it's a "motorcycle" but it's not a road-registered vehicle so I never bought "normal" bike insurance for it, assuming it would be covered under "personal belongings". (not even sure where I'd get insurance cover for it anyway tbh.. is there specialist insurance for motorised cycles that never leave the premises??)

buggeration.

Insomnia. On steroids due to a chest infection but a side effect is insomnia. There is nothing more annoying than laying there hour after bastard hour with no chance of going to sleep and now I'm knackered as I've had about 4-5 hours sleep since monday!

You need one of nature's natural sleep pills.

Her in doors is on eleventy pills a day, she still does a bottle wine a night.

Apparently the alcohol doesn't affect the medication generally, you just get pissed a bit quicker, bonus!

Get yourself some weed gummies. That's the only thing that helps me sleep when my Sciatica flares up.
