SCS.

My family are treating me to some new carpets as my BIL's mother recently passed and has left them with a hefty lump some of dosh.

Bought the carpets no problem at all but getting them fitted is turning out to be a nightmare.

I've have had 3 dates cancelled now which means i have used 3 days of leave up for nothing. Managed to speak to SCS's Operation Manager who didn't give a shit and blamed it on the lack of installers and the fact one had just left them which tbh i think is utter lies.

I have now been given a date of next monday when i am near on 150miles away from home so will have to take another days leave and hope they turn up.

If they don't, does anyone know where i should go to claim back compensation from them for wasting my 4 days of leave? If i was self employed i would of potentially lost out on £800 worth of business, i tried mentioning this to the operations manager who said it's not their policy to process any compensation claims!

I just want the fucking carpets fitted. Worst thing is that i stripped all the carpets up myself 2 weeks ago so i have been in my house for over 14 days now with no carpets!

I never have the volume up when watching football. I dont mind the pundits before the match male or female but during the game they are all annoying.

Me too.I tend to turn the screen off as well which makes for an even better experience when the football is on...

Bit like when you post up some music. Turn the volume down it ace You would be a great hit at the silent disco's

[Mr. Dazzle]

When I'm watching MotoGP I want someone like Hodgy commentating. Someone I've followed 30 years.

I've heard expert commentators talking absolute bollox. They don't have exclusive rights on accuracy, or any guarantee of it.

Let me interupt myself?

Its a fucking winner. Can you write an albums worth of silence? I can supply invisible headphones and we just get folk to bounce around the streets in some sort of uniform fashion while charging £15 a head (Y)

Maybe we could press it on invisible vinyl too, a silent album on invisible vinyl will be rare as fuck, we could charge £300 a press on launch...

I never did receive the invisible cake I ordered at the local Cafe, come to think of it.

Unknown footy expert commentators.

I'm all for equal rights, but for equal skills.
Just watching the footy and the expert is some lady I've never heard of.

If I'm watching any sport, I want to know and respect the expert's opinion to add to the enjoyment.
She might be very nice, but full of clichés and annoying

I'm all for lady presenters etc, but not the experts

So I've swapped to South African TV with English feed.

You really are quite the misogynist aren't you. I mean how dare they leave the kitchen, barefoot and pregnant that's what they should be.

There was nothing sexist at all, Ask a grown up to help you understand.

I'd be happy for Jenny Tinmouth to commentate on BSB as she's been there and got the t-shirt. Same with Marie Costello at the TT.

That bit I've highlighted, ladies can present but can't be experts. OK, nothing sexist at there. No sirree.

When I'm quietly reading and the missus sits near to me eating. Sounds like a fucking pig snorting it's way through a feeding trough.

Making dippy eggs for breakfast.

Dropped one getting it out of the box, instinctively that thing where you try and break its fall with your foot, ended up drop kicking a raw egg across the kitchen and into the wall.

Dementia has well and truly bmp today. Been to Chelmsford and back with the mother in law who has dementia. The whole way, there and back, she repeatedly said aren’t there a lot of cars on the road and where are we going now? You can’t ignore her so you’re answering the same amount of times. Such a lovely lady and it’s so sad to see this change in her. Hopefully we’ll see an end to this disease in the next few decades…

One of my good mates flies back to UK often to see his mum with serious dementia. He's just put her in a home for her own safety.
When he talks about her, you can see the pain in his eyes
