Tell me about it. I work with staff who's year of birth is 2004

My wife's had 4 large parcels delivered today while she's been at work. I messaged her and she said they are all for the bathroom we are about to start renovating. I fear she is using my tricks against me

@Steve_M I'm probably around his age then, turning 40 this year

I put some in my lawnmower over winter

no its not, surely you mean Strongbow Dark Fruits!

Got me going on a nostalgia trip on youtube now!! Weezer, Puddle of Mudd, Alien Ant Farm, Blink 182, Sum 41, Kid Rock, Limp Bizkit, Jimmy Eat World, Linkin Park.........

Asda are doing two crates of Magners for £18 just for you this weekend @rennie

Now the offspring I like

Never got the appeal of the sex pistols. Sounded like shit!

Pretty much the only kind of music I can't stand! I'll listen to everything from Billy Joel to Rush. At work this morning I was listening to motown classics. In the car on way home I had country music playing! Just can't stand dance/trance/techno etc

its ok if put on mute

When I built my shed last year I may of secretly included in the costing enough to get myself a new drill set

It was my Wifes a couple of weeks ago. Not only could we not go out, she couldn't even have a takeaway as it was the day all the snow came down so we couldn't get a delivery. I made her Sausage and chips

I was once chatting to the Owner of a Jewellery store I worked at. He told me a story of how in his younger days he went over to The Riviera Maya in Mexico to teach English as a second language. He went to the office and introduced himself etc and they told him they hadn't got things arranged yet and to come back in a week and it should all be sorted. He was nonplussed, figured he could do a bit of sightseeing and enjoy himself. This carried on for 8 months before they finally sent him home!! He had an apartment as part of his contract and was getting money paid into his account every month so was having a great time. All he had to do was go into the office once a week to see if they had anything for him to do and the answer was always no

Tax office and Wifes payroll get the nod from me today 3 months ago my Wife transferred to a different job (Still midwifery but working as a parent teaching support thingy) her first wage came and she was double taxed . Rang payroll and explained and she was refunded on her next wage but this time they didn't take anything out. No tax has been taken out on this months either. So thats 3 months of wages that have had no tax taken off. Her payroll doesn't have a clue what is going wrong. Those experienced in these matters know it doesn't mean free money, it means at some point we will get a letter demanding we pay back all the money that is due. Probably with threats of added charges etc. Last time this happened to us was when she started as a midwife and we came off working tax credit. They continued to pay us for a year despite repeated phone calls and letters asking them to stop!! Then we eventually got the "you owe us lots of money" letter in the brown envelope

We got asked as well. They say its sent out randomly but as my Wife works for NHS I was sceptical about that

@Six30 ugh, white wine I'd have the glass though!!

I like a nice solid heavy glass to drink out of. Traditional whisky ones are too light and delicate for me

@Stu yours will!!

Anything more heathen than drinking Bowmore from a branded Jack Daniels glass? Got it as a Christmas present years ago. The glass was nicer than the honey jack. That stuff was foul!!

Not something I've noticed with Spirits. If I open a bottle of Wine I always have to finish it that day as it always tastes "off" to me the next.

I've always been a big fan of Japanese culture. I like a lot of their Anime and Tv shows as well, I can only watch them when Wife isn't about though as they drive her mad Theres a show on Netflix called Midnight Diner that is good. Also Samurai Gourmet. They remind me of tv shows I used to watch as a kid, with a lesson at the end for all

Welcome to the Forum

That workmanship is incredible. I try to take that much care in my work but I am nowhere near that level!!

@Mississippi Bullfrog Love Glenmorangie. Was the first distillery tour I went on where I got to try some cask strength
