The real shitbags are the ones who save up their fag butts in the car ashtray till it's full then tip it out on the ground. Especially when there's a bin 3 yards away. Tossers.

Sadly there are plenty of those around at the moment :(

That means so much to me. Thanks.

I don't think the rest of the BBS will feel the same comparatively.

I maybe a pungent little twerp on here, but I am not a proven homophobe with racist tendencies. Those kind of things count for a lot on here.

Top tip - when you fork out for nice things, at least read the 'how to care for them' instructions before you get the ajax and scourer out to clean up your six month old bacterial filth.

I think you can add certain mask litterers to that. Or anyone else that thinks their litter is someone else's problem. That includes car people that purposefully load their garbage into their car to dump it near someone else's doorstop. And, the c nuts that get up in the middle of the night to dump a sofa or piss stained mattress outside someone else's front door.

They are all worse because they are making a concerted effort to make their garbage someone else's problem.

Are the middle managers on this message board, or do they frown at BBS use in office time from their holiday resorts?

While it may be fun for the humble workers to share a grumble, it is not them that need to understand the contradiction of your message.

Nope, as with everyone on the BBS there are some thing others agree with and others find funny, you are just another valued BBS member that makes it what it is. Can you imagine a room where everyone agreed. How boring would that be???

Plus, I have easy to maintain and clean kitchen workshops that you can put hot things on.

That seems to make life a whole lot easier. If you can be asked to actually clean them regularly and not be a filthy pig, of course.

Plus the profound advice on pack lunches made in those immaculate surfaces would have never arisen !

Waitrose Bromley South where I picked up a delivery from John Lewis, website says'we advise you to wear masks to protect others'. I see six members of staff near the information desk, none of whom was wearing one. I will be travelling to Beckenham or Biggin Hill in future where staff show better awareness.

Social media request culture

See Palace fans: “Nketiah next, please”

Cricket: “Len Hobbs for Moeen Ali next test, please”

Guardian readers: “Invite the Taliban into UNICEF, please”

Gash humanry that makes me want to eat my own head.

Along similar lines I was in the market yesterday and there were four firemen doing their shopping (for the station meals I guess).

All four had masks on, but all four had them below their noses.

What chance have we got if people we are supposed to look up to take the piss...

Wearing a mask on your chin is as good as wearing a condom on your balls I think

Agree. I think I’ve used a similar analogy in the past. Only wearing a condom with the tip cut off.

Top tip - don't cut it off whilst wearing it.

Shrinkflation, had a Mars bar the other day, reminded me of a fun size.

That would be a tip top tip… [emoji106]

People who conflate working from home with not working. I’ve worked from home for years but it seems to have been politicised recently with DM readers doing lord rothermere’s bidding

Don't let a certain South American poster read that

Peter Hescobar?

on

You need a clean countertop to process the cocaine. Maybe that is actually what Bimbo meant when he said Ajax.

Perhaps he was scouring the stuff off the surface before the US backed local police burst in.

Probably appealing to a readership of tutting retired people or wives that have never had to work.

The sort of twonk that can spend all day hoping to get interviewed outside a Royal palace.

When transfers come?

Let those that haven't sinned....

Yes on I blame fat fingers and tiny phone keypads

Are they roofed with non stick corrugated iron?

....and your sad sack sarnies

See how confused you are crybaby.

I am not the one who makes the sandwiches.

Learn some BBs things before commenting.

You are the big man giving it out. Can't take it though Princess.

You have embarrassed yourself.

I have quality cookwear, too.

Bimbo cooks in rusty cockroach ridden pots. But the bugs add a bit of crunch to his jerk chicken. That and the burnt bits of filth the pig sweeps into the pot from his disease ridden kitchen tops.

Filthy animal.

You evidently pour the drinks though. Shape up laddy

When the Covid restrictions were relaxed were you deported back as part of the Windrush project?

That must have been hard to take. You have my sympathies.

Sandwiches was one of the best threads on BBS

Tiny is the forum coward. Tucked skinty right up.

He has no to back him nowadays what a shame /)

Who's Tiny? (Cue hilarious PeterH joke.)

Packed Lunch sad sacks to give it its proper title.

A certain poster who is also good at being a sarcastic turn on here on a daily basis, had a little PM crybaby episode over it.

But it is appropriate that I do these wind ups on the 'annoy' thread.

Had nothing on FMCDA

Not you my diminutive pal. What you lack in height, you make up in heart.

I think he is referring to Breximbo. You know the type - the Ex Pat who is in favour of Brexit.

Anyhoo. Off to the beach now to sample some seafood empanadas.

I don't know why, but I find it a bit annoying when they play John Williams movie music (and other movie music) on classical music stations.

Appreciate it is the whole orchestra thing, but classical music it is not.

Shit I'm getting old!

For the benefit of any other beachgoers, keep your shirt on and wear a large face covering

If you listened to The Imperial March without having a clue it was from a Star Wars film… It would go down as one of the best classical pieces of music you’ve ever heard in your life. Maybe.

Similarly, I originally thought that what I now know is Samuel Barber's Adagio for Strings was written for Platoon.

Washing up. It’s never ending

Dishwasher is the answer

Those articles on the BBS main page that are an array of quotes from our fans off Twitter, as if it’s newsworthy.

Utter cringe.

Coincidentally this was the exact "ditty" that put me over the edge.

It is so obviously a John Williams piece. Then again you can usually tell a Mozart piece.

I guess it comes down to individual taste when it comes down to music. I would put John Williams and the like into the classical pops genre.

I’ve heard they leak a lot. I am tempted though - just need to find space

I agree, somewhere above James Last, in the 2nd Division

Not if you have it plumbed right. It is good and they do various sizes to fit your kitchen etc.

Try John Lewis as that is where I got mine

I’d give it a try, sounds tasty with a subtle hint of arse gravy danger.

You have to close the door before you switch it on.

You can have ours (Joking), We've used ours about twice in 15 years.

Leatherhead to Reigate section of M25 that makes it feel like all 4 of your wheels are punctured and you're living in a 3rd world country.

Haha, yes, good call, various sections sound really bad and get me every time

Or check PeterH, he's bound to know somewhere better....

I have never owned one. Height of middle class laziness. More hassle than it is worth - you have to rinse the plates before you load it. So you are both being lazy and doing extra work. Utterly pointless contraption.

File under 'packed lunches' or 'fecked up scour free countertops'.

You have never done any washing up. You eat off the same floor you use as a toilet.

If you have a big enough dishwasher you will never go back.

Peter is still using a mangle instead of a washing machine

Actually incorrect my friend, pre-rinsing inhibits the things from working properly, you are tricking them into believing the plates are cleaner than they really are. Google it - all the manufacturers strongly recommend that you do not pre-rinse.

All you need to do is remove any big unconsumed chunks of food, same as you would before hand-washing. Smaller food residue will be captured by the dishwasher filter which is there for a reason.

Doesnt he have maids??

Two of my (somewhat distant) relatives play in the LA Phil. You’d hate what they do these days as every now and again they put a film on and the orchestra plays the score. This season it is Home Alone (Christmas, innit) but they’ve done all sorts, including films with John Williams scores. They quite enjoy it, makes a change etc. FWIW Their favourite was Harry Potter.

Every time we drive on that we shout ‘noisy road’ standing joke In my family now

PeterH is a top man and I have time for him. I may not agree with some of his comments but overall he is a good.

On the M25 yesterday. 4 lanes wide and three had lorries side by side all going about 52-55 mph

I can't believe that anyone doesn't have a dishwasher who can afford one and has the space. The only exception would be someone who disagrees for environmental reasons, but even then there is an eco setting.

Fine for families but with just me and the Mrs by the time you've given the plates a rinse, put everything in etc etc you could've just done the washing.

I do all the cooking in our house, so to be honest not really my problem

I have space, can afford one, can't be arsed, rather spend my money on other stuff.

I could be wrong (I often am) but I thought that was a deliberate attempt to slow traffic down, as the faster you go, the worse it gets. If you go slower, the effect is far less noticeable.

If I can add junction 8 to 10 I find the longest, boring stretch of motorway going because where 8 is and 10 is shouldn't be that long in my head.

But the rinse is just a quick splash under the tap to get the big stuff off.

You lot smash the plates up at the end of every meal so it’s irrelevant.

He used to be alright, glad to see you offering support to someone in need

Mr Hovel Hobo,

I am more than alright.

You take the bantz and pising about on here too serously. Which has made you rather precious of late - unlike you.

You just need to learn that when people decide to have a pop at me on here, they will get it back in spades.

Enough of this, you have some scouring to be getting on with.

Which is how Bimbo cleans up after doing number twos. Usually without taking the dirty plates out of the sink.

Call me Eco Pete, and don't call my wife a mangle.


TBF. We want to buy a mangle. We have a lot of hot weather, so we naturally dry and finish off in the dryer. Saves on electricity. A good old fashoned mangle would take the excess water out of the towels etc.. Save on the old wrists.

You might go back to the store to buy some plates and cups as you run out of them.

You can wash up a couple of times a day an it takes a few minutes.

Granted, we also use the water for the plants..

Don't get me wrong, I enjoys "classical" movie music, and love The Boston Pops type stuff. I even like "classical" music played in contemporary modern day music, but don't think it belongs on a classical only radio station.

As I said, probably just me.

I reckon it is a decent loss leader. Get some of the 'popular' stuff on and you might attracy a few more listeners happy to hang around.

Classical music is a guilty pleasure for Sunday mornings.

Does anyone know why they don't sort this out? Really annoying!!!

Because it'll cost a shitload of money and, despite the vast amount of money that any government screws out of people with cars, there is no appetite to spend it on road infrastructure.


We're all supposed to travel by train.

Poo-sonally, I'm disappointed nobody seems to have shat themselves recently as that thread has been quiet of late. Maybe it's because many have been at home with a toilet in easy reach.

Not where I am, Andalucians are tight as ****.

When the M25 was built I seem to remember local councils had some kind of say in the section that went through their jurisdiction. They went for concrete as it would last 5 times longer and so cost less in the long run. Apart from the cracks just before it opened that got fixed it has proved to have lasted even longer. Trouble now is the can’t simply remove the old stuff and replace with nice new as it costs way too much to remove it all. Or I could have a failing memory

Sounds like California.

It is an absolute major project to resurface the concrete Freeways, so basically it doesn't get done. They have been doing a stretch near us of about 5 miles, and they've been at it for about 3 years now... slow going by even M25 standards!

I'm sure there is a perfectly reasonable technical reason, but I've often wondered why they don't just put blacktop on top of the concrete.

Went to the pharmacy this morning to pick up some meds.

Came out and couldn't find my car key... searched all the places I had been since I got out the car, asked the pharmacy if anyone had turned them in etc..

Ended up calling the wife to bring the spare key (Only 5 minutes from home). While waiting I look in the car and there they are sitting on the seat... must have fallen out of my pocket. I had locked the car using the number pad on the door frame as I always do.

The car has a code you can enter on the key pad to open the door. I had forgotten the code and it was on a card in the glove box... Doh!

While waiting for the wife I went back in the pharmacy to keep cool in the AC... a guy walks in with a Manchester United shirt on (The black one with orange trim). I gave him a tut, tut, tut and a shake of the head... the guy didn't have a clue.

Had to get some cash out of a cash machine to pay the cleaning lady... go to cash machine and it was out of order...

I'm going back to bed I think.

I’VE GOT A CLEANER ! :D

ps Where is SC these days ?

I had to cancel our holiday plans on Thursday also. SC would be beside himself!

I am a cleaner. I have 6 cleaners working for me and one that cleans my house.
So I can play golf and eat big steaks on the local Reserve 10 miles up the road from me:D

England went Green light for Canada so my holidays look good in Croydon, this is the life Eh!

Nor can I. For hygiene reasons alone I couldn't do without one. Hand washed plates are still dirty.

Jamaica stayed Amber so I get to "holiday" in Sutton....:shy:

Pie and mash shop, Sutton market, might as well stay at home:sunglasses:

He can by some self clean countertops and cockroach spray from Homebase to take back.

Les, I fear your industrial cleaning service won't sort Bimbo's accumulated filth out. The WHO has just LinkedIn Cov-20 to his kitchen. Filthy pig..that he is.

Heard it all now.

Do you wash your hands on every loo trip?

Have you washed hands as per covid protocol?

We seem to have Bimbo has Mr Filthy and Mr WLW with his surgical theatre desparately justifying his laziness with exaggerated bollox. Could come straight from the sales brochure.

This annoys me..from the BBC..

'In alarming news..our world class track and trace system has highlighted a passenger from some months back coming in from Jamaica, where the extremely dangerous Jerk variant as been identified has coming from his kitchen. Said passenger went to ground but is understood to be in the Sutton área. Do not approach him, he can be identified by his racist and homophobic insinuations and the massive yellow streak running down his spine..'

This thread has gone a bit personal, not cool.

Great news, we will have to meet up for a drink Les :)

^^

You tight c*nt. Just buy one.

Someone wants attention..

I think its just pure laziness at the end of the day , same as the filthy ***** that don't bother on the buses too.
