    Just because I'm a teacher doesn't mean I can drink wine at 4pm.

    The entitled nature of some groups.

    Yes, I can understand that there are times that you must answer a phone but not in someone else's workplace.

    I find it absolutely rude for people to think that they can stand in a shop/queue/register and carry on conversations on their phones holding up others regardless of the circumstances.

    How often do you not answer the phone?

    Lots - whenever in company, whether it be the checkout operator or friends. Just rude to do so.

    On another tack - had my hip bursitis needled with cortisone (oh the relief) - only to have my hip sciatica leap up and demand attention as there is now no other overriding pain to disguise it

    The Australian manufacturer of my tamper proof product containers has - without warning - ceased production on the container that I use.

    Fortunately have around 2 months supply in hand so not desperate yet - but trying to find a new manufacturer, that makes the particular size/shape product that I need, as the slide on packaging was made specifically for that size/shape container.

    Not having much luck :oops: Wish they'd given some warning so I could stock up with a couple of years worth of supply.

    I was advised late yesterday afternoon by a fellow camper that the Pub up the road from the caravan park "The Sunset Bar" here in Karumba is running low on my favourite beer!
    What am I going to drink with my prawns?:eek:

    I was making another face mask last night and the thread on my bobbin ran out just two minutes short of completion.

    I opened my vanity cupboard and my neatly stacked toilet paper supply has been ruined by a leak of some sort

    I counted 12 rolls, I dried them out but now they wont unpeel, so I had to toss them in the bin

    what a waste! 2months ago, they'd be worth $60
