@ionafyfe Lastly, altho I could go on, hotels obviously need to take care of guests but I'm assuming Cameron House were not just requiring a minimum skelton staff to keep things ticking along but, instead, were expecting all staff in. Putting lives at risk to maintain the comfort of guests
@ionafyfe And then there's the fact that there was no public transport at all. If someone can't drive and lives a distance from home, that's a huge challenge. Even if they were an essential worker, employers should have been mindful of this.
Honestly, 30 mins I've been sitting in car waiting on @Morrisons brining out my click and collect order. I'd have been quicker doing the shopping myself.
@HarveyNichols terrible customer service. I realised the minute I'd ordered something it was a mistake and they're refusing to allow me to cancel or return because it's fragrance. Awful. Wasn't allowed to speak to a manager either. Appalling.
Anyone know what the deal is with the Gathering event @stlukesglasgow. Do you need to buy tickets for each of the individual bands playing rather than just for event? Very confusing.
@RealStephenKerr I was just remarking that I hadn't seen a single bit of bunting anywhere in my town. Thought I'd have seen it in a house or two... but none at all. Thankfully.
space in my house. I want to shred the whole fucking bunch but I fear that'll bring some bad mojo down upon me. I've had it! Honestly... when I die, they can stick me in a dumpster. Certainly no depressing death brochure is required.
@ivehaditpodcast was listening this morning to you discuss "holiday cards" which feature family photographs - not knowing what to do with them afterwards etc. This isn't really a British custom (we send cards but not with pictures of family) BUT, what we do have is these...
I don't want to throw away the picture of some dead person, so, as a result, I've amassed this fucking grim box of the dead, full of the visages of long gone people, many of whom I never set eyes on when they were alive. I totally resent that this macabre stash is now taking up
@ivehaditpodcast I felt a sneeze coming on in a supermarket the order day. I tried to pinch my nose to stiffle it but was too slow. The half pinch somehow amplified the noise to bullhorn level. Lady beside my got a fright and shouted "fuck sake" -she glared at me like I'd just shat on her carpet.
