For a 35 minute call. The ****ers are charging £1.60(ish) per minute to call a number in Tipperary from Belfast. But it's my own stupidity so I can't be too angry at the greedy ****ers. :mad: I stupidly thought that it would be the same as the roaming thing where they just take it out of your own minutes.

It very well should be, if you were roaming! Get in touch with them and ask them to look at it, I had the same problem a while back and they refunded me, it could just be a system glitch.

No no I live in Belfast. So I'm on the UK package. I wasn't roaming. And calling someone in the south is calling an international number for them. :rolleyes:

Ah, ok - if you don't get free international calls as part of your package, then I'm afraid you're snookered.

People who seem to think you are ****ing psychic. I'm may as well join the mediumship at this stage and get paid for it.

People who don't flush the toilets after themselves as well as not washing your hands, I actually think I'm gonna be sick.

Dial Hard

People who turn into complete animals at the sight of a bit of free food. I don't know how many times I've seen someone who's already had their breakfast or lunch eat an entire second one just because it's there.

My body. I’ve been so sore all over for no reason about two weeks now. Started off with creaky sore fingers, dr said psoriasis arthritis, here’s some steroids off you go. Then it’s my fingers and toes, and the steroids are gone, then it’s my back and my fingers and my toes, more steroids, told these aren’t a long term thing and he won’t be able to give me more. They’re gone, now it’s my fingers toes back legs and arms. My car feels like it has no power steering. It hurts to push open a in anyway heavy door, and as well as that it’s all my muscles. Had a massage on Tuesday. I love my deep tissue massages so am not a stranger to being beaten up (my physio is amazed because he tells me he has huge men who he has to do lighter pressure on) could only get a last min appointment with a regular massage therapist not a sports physio so she wasn’t as strong but I’m covered in bruises. I’m not comfortable, at all. I stand, I’m sore, I sit, im sore, I go to bed I’m sore, laying on my side I’m like a beached whale trying to turn over, lying on my back hurts. Changed my mattress, thought that would help. It didn’t.
I’m in my 20s. It’s one thing after another. I’ve seen people in their 70s be in better condition than me

Feckin banks. My debit card has gone missing so cancelled and ordered a new one. I've a couple of bills I pay monthly by debit card so I went to PTSB, withdrew cash then went to Ulsterbank where I have an old account i dont really use very often. Went to the branch and was told they don't take cash there anymore, in a bank like so went to another branch to be pointed to an auto lodgement machine, used that (PTSB and AIB have these machines also and funds are in the accounts instantly). That was at 10.30 this morning and the funds still aren't showing and Ulsterbank have told me that all of these lodgements are checked manually throughout the day. What a feckin load of ****e

Was away from home for a while and missed a parcel delivery. I’m too late to organise redelivery. An Post are supposed to send it back to the company. I checked with company. They haven’t received it back so they won’t reissue until they do which is fair enough. So I contacted An Post service to find out if it’s still in the depot. The depot is in an awkward place and I’m experiencing a lot of pain these days so getting on public transport and then trudging through an industrial estate to collect a heavy parcel is not going to happen. No response from An Post customer service two days later. And organising redelivery is basically a “computer says no” situation where you fill the attempted delivery date on the online form and if it’s too late, you can’t go past that page.

I’m willing to pay, An Post, just deliver my parcel. Or send it back to the company. I’m down €40 here!

Could you ask a teenager to do it for you and give him / her busfare and €10 ? It might be cheaper that way

Be careful though, if they’re anything like the one in Galway they want photograph ID of the name on the parcel or they won’t give it.

Guys, I am honestly so touched. Thank you all. I got talking to An Post through their Facebook page so I'm sure I'll get it sorted now that contact has been made. My main fear as that I'd arrive at the depot and it wouldn't be there. It's the D15 delivery depot. It's annoying because I live on the very eastern edge of D15, near D7, and the D7 depot is much closer and easier to get to (a short bus ride brings me right to the door) but my address is D15 so that's my "local" delivery depot unfortunately.

I can get to the D15 depot handy enough and know D7 fairly well so if you need it collected and brought to you then drop me a line

I looked so tired and haggard today that I had a colleague ask if everything was ok in a very concerned tone, and when I went to get a prescription from the doctor she asked me several times was I sure I had nothing else to ask her about.

TA that I look awful today.

I have had one good night of sleep in the last month without chemical aid. Unfortunately it was earplugs so I have no chance of being woken by my alarm. So my trivial annoyance is that I have no-one to wake me. :P

Put your phone on vibrate and keep it under your pillow.

CrowdedHouse

The possibility of having to buy 2 tools costing nearly €80 to replace a part costing €20.

(It would make more sense to pay someone to do it but I'd like to do it myself and almost certainly will use them again, just the initial outlay is a TA)

the last few days I have had a dodgy throat, it's not sore but it feels like something is swollen inside it, it keeps catching me and is extremely irritating

Went in to Aldi to pick up one of their Special buys today. I was chancing my arm as it was late and I was looking for a particular colour so probably would be none left.
They had 2 of the items left but from the picture on the box they were both the wrong colour...
Just checked online and from the code it was the right colour, it just looked wrong on the box photo! I can't go back until the morning though

Littering. Pick up five bags full on a short stretch of country road today. Cop on you irresponsible idiots.

Trigger Happy

Raging with myself. I did not fit my watch strap correctly and it came off on the street. The watch fell, like in slow motion, on to the ground. The front and back came off and a few little bits came out.
Beyond repair. A 60 year old gem destroyed by my own carelessness.

TG1

People who do not turn up for arranged interviews... Even if you have got a job and want to pull out, common courtesy would suggest you let the person know! Wasted so much time trying to make sure someone wasn't lost injured or dead today, because I'm nice like that, and eventually just got oh sorry I got a job offer on Wednesday.

TA1 We have a visitation of rats in the garden. They are 'heebie jeebie' inducing. I can see them from the window when they check for fallen titbits under the bird feeders. *shudder*

TA2 I had two builders in the house today who spotted them and not very reassuringly went "they are huge! As big as squirrels." FFS!

TA3 I checked the bait boxes and the little feckers have hardly touched the rat poison (I'm after smearing it witha dab of Nutella so hopefully they'll gobble it all up).

TA4 I've temporarily had to stop feeding the birds so that the rats will eat the rat poison instead of the fallen titbits off the feeder. The birds are examining the feeders to see if the buffet is back yet....
