WHAT THE FUCK???!!!!

We now have a hosepipe ban. Would anyone like to swap my black G30 for a dark silver grey?
 
Neighbours- or virtually EVERYONE in my experience, who have work done on their house but don't tell anyone in advance. This must be 90% +
What is wrong with people that they can't communicate. Surely they aren't shy at 50-60-70?
Who has a roof done, but don't tell their immediate/connected neighbours, of whom they haven't ever argued with? Who has an extension planned, but don't tell the neighbours until a consultation letter arrives? Who has a new, messy job, hedge cut etc, but don't tell the neighbours, who they've never argued with etc.
Why I'm a complete nutter, is that if I've unfortunately got to have some repair/maintence etc, and I think it's going to effect neighbours (noise, dust etc), I go and tell them in advance, even asking if a time suits them better for me to try and wangle with who's doing it? It's not hard. No one does it. Like who wants to come back home and find their car covered in dust say, hedge clippings, wood dust etc etc, when they could have had 1% courtesy and told the neoghbour in advance so they could have moved it etc.

I'd settle for a neighbour who could tell the truth, I can tell when she's lying, her lips are moving!
 
I saw something today I never thought in a million years would occur. Must have been the first time ever.
I saw football fans on TV in a pub, and when the TV camera went by them/interviewed them, they 'sang' 'it's coming home', like it was the first time anyone had ever heard it. The cameras went to another lot and, you'd never guess it, they 'sang' 'it's coming home' too, as if no one had ever heard it. They went outside and a group of women were there. They 'sang' 'it's coming home' too.
Can't believe football fans would sing 'it's coming home'. Never a football fan 'singing' that one before.

From October, we will all be 12p a day better off. WTF should I spend it on? How much are black jacks and fruit salads nowadays?

Just trying to remember how any black jacks you used to get for a half penny, I seem to remember you used to get four, but then when half pennies were taken out of service it was four for a penny, I may be totally wrong it was a long time ago. ;)
