"This is our BBC"
How patronising to draw us into suggesting we are all part of the BBC.Obviously a sense of belonging to justify the TV licence.

My brother in law phoning my missus every friday morning at 8.30 from NZ, and still on it at 10am.
Still, at least I get to have a nice long lie-in (not going downstairs while that blether is going on) so it's a mixed one, I guess 😁

Presume you mean her brother, not your sister's husband - that would be a bit weird ;)

I once went to a film at Showcase and I was the only person sat in there and a Mum and daughter came in and sat right next to me. Felt so awkward :ROFLMAO:
You went to see Melania ?

This new idea of having content from one streaming service appearing on another streaming service. Especially when it's shit from a free service clogging up your paid for service.

I don't need my Disney Plus feed full of Corrie and fucking Love Island.

Maybe that's the problem of too much choice, especially when it was free in the first place, well that's my twopennarth anyway and free in more than free in the actual sense of the word.

Applying for a job and it's the usual "competitive" salary, then finding out "Basic salary expectation" on the accompanying form I have to submit is a required field. Utter bullshit, having their cake and eating it.

Wafer thin bog roll where you need loads to stop your fingers having a scoop.
Can’t be cost effective.

We shop at Sainsburys and they have cut down on the money off coupons but my wife has found a way to get them. Whilst I do the shopping she goes and buys something for around £1 & the last 4 times she has got a £4.50 off coupon, no idea how long it will carry on working. I think you only get coupons when using a nectar card.

There's a Sainsburys near where I work and I pop in sometimes. If I don't go for 3 - 4 weeks I'll get a £10+ voucher appear in my Nectar app
