WBMT.....What baffled me today

Me too Mr Nod, nothing to do with a certain age.:agree: I do to. If 'Mr Thingy' had the real flu no antibiotics would be given:agree: I do to. If you smoke like a few of you do then the flu can turn really nasty, really really nasty:agree: I do to.
If a Hamster gets flu its curtains.:)

You really have no idea about Man Flu have you :p
 
Man flub is even worse!

While Shirley's right in saying that antibiotics have no effect on the flu, they can be effective against any bacterial infection that takes advantage of the body's reduced immune response.

And raise the little blighters ( I mean darlings ).

Anyway, more to the point, what's the time. Oops, why don't dogs know what the time is, its 6.02:geek:
 
Why do old women have jingling bells on their purses?

Not going to ring if they misplace them, who not just shout to muggers "look I've get my purse out, come and nick my pension money"

There was a massive sinkhole in Japan, they mended it in 3 days, then why can't council mend potholes on our roads. There is one really nasty ph in this village for the last 2 years, its almost a tourist attraction now, like a mini roundabout.
 
WBMT? why does a 45 minute wash cycle, then run for another 15 minutes?

Oh and my opposite neighbours have their external Christmas lights up and running :rolleyes:

Anti-crease cycle?
My washer-drier will keep gently turning the washing over for a few minutes after beeping at me - useful if you're in the middle of dinner or on the phone.
 
Coming out of a well known supermarket, a woman approached the entrance, side on, head down, looking at her phone ..
And bumped into me, she said "oops sorry" fair enough, I know I should have said "ok luv, no problem"
But the devil made me say, "didn't you see me?"

I should point out I was still in the days work attire, (matching fleece and trousers) florescent yellow with the reflective stripes all over,
I look like a frigging Christmas tree, when caught in the light, and yes it was dark, and yes there was a street lamp right there :D
 
A guy tailgated me through the sharp bends on my way back from town this afternoon. He overtook, accelerating hard, as we came out onto a straight stretch just in time to slam on his brakes before the 30mph restriction signs for the village where my wife lives. Thing is, they are clearly visible a short distance ahead as you come out of the bends.
 
There's a residential road connecting our rail station to a main artery, much used by speeding taxi drivers. It's just been reopened after six months of improvements. Parking is now delineated by islands built into the permitted-parking side of the road so there are gaps available for you to pull into when you see a car turning into the effectively 1-vehicle wide road from the artery at its top. I did just that in the dark this morning: sat there all with all lights on, steam emerging from exhaust, so obviously waiting to give the oncoming car a clear run. It was 30yds away approaching me, having covered several hundred meters of the road when an MPV taxi shot past me from behind, and stopped right in front of the oncoming car. There was a 15 second standoff before the oncoming driver admitted defeat and squeezed up onto the pavement to give the idiot enough room to continue, followed by me who, erm, accidentally had my full beams on shining into his mirror all the way up the road.
 
People paying daft money buying nuts (Brazil's, walnuts, hazels etc.) in the shells, when half the packet weight is shells. o_O

(And yes, I know many "nuts" aren't, in fact, nuts at all.)

But half the fun is cracking them, without destroying the "nut" inside.
And then finding splinters of shells, all over the house, till at least April the following year :D

There's a definite "art" to doing Brazils, I'm told.
 
Shake 'em - if they rattle, they'll come out whole. In the shelling factories, that's how they get such a low broken nut rate and fast processing - the hard to shell ones get sold as a commercialmas treat!
 
The 'art' of doing Brazils is to give them to a macaw and then try to get the shelled nuts back. :)

Yeah you have to be really careful with the razor, or you may cut ....
Oh right, yes, I see, not that type of "Brazil"

The most bizarre delivery I've ever had, courtesy of Amazon. First off - tracking info. Yesterday evening the package left the carrier facility in Bristol to arrive at the carrier facility in Plymouth in the wee small hours. Why? If it went down the M5 it passed 11 miles from my door and I'm about 30 miles closer to Bristol than to Plymouth. This morning - out for delivery. This afternoon I hear loud thumping music from the road and look out to see a van parked outside and a man with a package walking up my path. Then the sound of my door opening. By the time I got there he was half way back down the path but there's my package sitting on the kitchen inside windowsill next to the door. The tracking said it had been left in my safe place. Since when has 'open door to someone's house, leave package on windowsill and walk away without even seeing customer' been spelt 'shed'...............??? At least he closed the door and the gate behind him.
 
cars driving round in the middle of a bright blue sunny day with their lights on. Is this something happening just to annoy bikers who coast around blinding people with their main beams all the time? Just dont! especially if you drive one of those penis substitute 4x4's where the bright white lights are going right into the faces of people with normal cars and no inferiority complex.

WTF! and if you had had a large dog that was not fond of strangers entering unannounced?
I wonder who's fault that would have been?

Having never had a dog, large or otherwise, I didn't think of that. That could have been great fun! I did seriously consider taking a blunt intrument with me, till I saw through the glass panelled door he was on his way out. There's still something else to be delivered, and someone round the corner has a malemute I'm now thinking of borrowing for the day. He's a really sweet dog, but face to face in my rather small kitchen......;)
