odd socks in the draw is I think a link to putting several pairs in washing machine and when you get them out one missing! this carrys on for several washers then when you put 2 pairs in you get 7 socks out!

1, Why the bloody hell are plasters so difficult to open and apply ? Once of a day they worked easy to open stuck like sh1t on a blanket.
Yesterday I cut my finger only a nick but enough to require a plaster, gets to the box, individually wrapped ferking nightmare to get outer cover off, easier if your knee is cut but when it's your finger ffs impossible when part one completed and you haven't fainted part two is harder the covers of the sticky bit, F me so difficult to remove you rub, you tease you blow and the sods dont move. When they eventually come off the sticky bit underneath is shocking and if the plaster stays on for 5 minutes you are lucky, invariably the cut has healed and scabbed over before the plaster applied.
2, Since when did it become fashionable for young oiks to walk around showing the top of their underpants as their Jean's have to be baggy at the back held in.place with a loose fitting designer belt. Ridiculous and only promotes the deodouring of skid marks.
3, why is Garth Crooks on the tele (unless it's a documentary about illusions of grandeur)

Said plaster then drops off at the first opportunity. Modern plasters are the worst.

Why do so many people use the word draw instead of drawer? Is it a predictive text thing. I see it all the time. I can’t think of another two questions.

not sure about where you live but around my neighbourhood the council have all of a sudden decided to dig up almost every road for pot hole repairs this week - its as if they're rushing to get the work done before we come out of lockdown... (I said it quietly as its a banned topic).

Councils will have identified the lack of frost on the horizon so no need to grit , hence doing the potholes, couple that with it being near the end of the financial year and they will have their budget to spend

Thanks, I’ll try to remember. S version being the verb. I think I knew that but I still never seem sure. Apparently American English has c for both, much easier. I don’t know whether it’s correct but I tried a small e for English. Predictive text will not let me do it.
