This is going bak to 1920s/1930s , my grandad was super punctual, would cycle to work and ring little bell saying goodbye to kids. One morning he got roared at by neighbour , unbeknownst to Gradda ( our name for him in family) , this neighbour used the bike bell as him alarm clock. On the one mornkng he didn’t ring it, the neighbour slept through and was late for work . And as I said, he gave my grandad one heck of a shouting to!
We had to have the milkman put our milk under a large flowerpot to stop the great t i t s from stealing the cream.
Geese are the best guard dogs going ! I’m farm born n bred,n our dogs were to herd sheep etc, the geese were the security,evil b u g g e rs they are 🤣
U.S. South enters chat. "I beg your finest pardon ma'am?! Would like my beg to differ on the record please."
Admit it. You were only being polite when you asked, you didn't actually want to know.
His Majesty's Revenue and Customs for those not familiar with the term. Basically, the tax man.
In Estonia we get the - Oh someone drove drunk and crashed on this road a year ago - better put up a speed limit of 70km/h on this kilometer for all eternity. And If there is ever the second accident they will reduce it to 50km/h. And put up a speed cam. I live in fear for the moment when there will be a third accident on the major highway I need to take 2 times per day. They will probably make people come out of the cars and push.
Yep, it's a different feeling to walk down the stairs at 6.15 a.m. in the morning, in your pyjamas, to grab the milk bottles. I've got eggs, too, but then the local fox discovered this free food delivery. 😂
Tell 'em to post the eggs in through the letterbox. ;-)
Load More Replies...Kind of a funny story here, or I found it funny at least. I have a telescope, and was waiting all year for a particular thing to be in the sky, this would have been July/August time, so warm nights, I was in shorts and no shirt. The thing wasn't in the sky until like 2 am, so I waited up until then. The time came, and my view was blocked slightly by a neighbour's house, so I stacked the telescope on some garden chairs, put up my ladders, and stood with one leg on a garden chair, one on the ladder, whilst peering through my telescope. I forgot milkmen existed, so while my pale a*s is 4 ft off the ground in the middle of the night, peering through a telescope, the milkman came around the slightly higher road opposite my garden, and lit me up with the headlights. I must have looked like a d**n criptid to him, long pale creature in the middle of the night...
It warms my heart to know the milkman is back. They all vanished sometime in the late 80s and buying a generic plastic bottle just wasn't the same.
What we also love is that you can go online as late as 9pm the night before and order other stuff as well. Forget to buy a loaf of bread for breakfast? It can be there first thing in the morning. I’ve done it with washing up liquid before now. Of course you wouldn’t chose to pay those prices habitually, but this delivery system has a shorter lead time and more reliability than any other service I know of.
My milkman delivers at about 5am , we are not that near to the milk depot, I also have never seen my milkman ( or milk lady, )
The six weeks too hot is just a collective lie told upon their return, to anyone who left the country for the summer. The reality is usually maybe a week. After which they declare a drought.
11 year sun activity cycle is at the max. More active the sun, more northern lights and more south they get
They gave up in 2016. They didn't even get to the debacle of 2022.
Birmingham, Nottingham, Wokingham, Rotherham, Fulham, Cheltenham, Fareham...
I would be honoured to have any of my meals in any given day with him!
They take all the chicken McBits that are left over from other processes put it in the McGrinder and then bread and McFry them. They have a weird texture when you bite into them. Not my McFavorite.
While I really don't care and am very hazy on what is happening, I rather enjoy watching co workers excitedly swap opinions. Much better than most other stuff going on. I don't watch strictly either, but it's nice to see people getting passionate. I did watch celebrity traitors, so I could fully join in for once - it was fun.
Just putting Heights and Wuthering in a sentence, then putting a picture of a random American "singer" doesn't really mean anything! Edit, why the downvote? I have no idea who the guy is and he is in what looks like America! Thought this was about British humour. I'm confused.
I’m never sure if these ‘writers’ are real people or not, but if he’s real that was fun.
