Lost me bank card...Was heading for the shop, grab wallet, no bank card...Hmmm
Got fuel on Tuesday...used it on Wed's cash out & shopping...Maybe I left it in the shop...(wouldn't be the first time...
) Had a quick check round, coat, trew's, jumpers pockets...no go. Even checked the washing machine...
Went to shop anyway & asked if it had been handed in...No.
Came home & had another sweep just in case...Oh well lets call the bank & get it cancelled...

Got my locked in my bedroom this morning when the internal bar in the door knob slipped out of kilter so I couldn't open my door! Had to leap out of 1st floor bedroom window into the back garden, thankfully soft.
Then went to go out on the storm and noticed it had a rear puncture from a stone shard following the jaunt to and from Bury St Edmunds - so onto the backup Transalp. Rest of the day went well at a for the first time happy clappy sunny Evangelical funeral which more than made up for the disastrous start of the day.

It may be that your whole purpose in life is simply to serve as a warning to others.

Re: What's annoyed you today??
Sold my house weeks ago, to a couple who offered £145K initially, £15K below asking price. Turned it down, and eventually they came back with the asking price so all good. My tenant agrees to move out by mid-April, and cancels her DD in lieu of deposit. Yesterday I am told their lenders surveyor has devalued it to £145K - so am now left with no sale (wont sell for that) and no tenant!
I'm so unlucky that if there is such a thing as re-incarnation I'll come back as me!
