Things you'd like to say, but can't

Ah, I have just got something through the post from Ebay and its a bit of a mess. Now, I know its an Intercity 125 Mirror from circa 1976, and yes, these things get marks and blemishes over time, but why oh why oh WHY did you photograph it in such a way that it looked pristine and then never mentioned it, leaving me to discover it when I opened the parcel?!

...... Actually I just mentioned that in the feedback, so.... umm..... Forget I just wrote that.

 

[TheDoctor]

Yes, but are you going on a second date?

Now the guy is kicking up a fuss. Really? Really?

Now I know its there, I can see the marks in his original picture. He claims he took the picture to avoid his reflection. Fair enough, but the marks are so obvious that it does seem a bit dodgy that he posted up a picture where they weren't noticeable. If he didn't notice then I suggest he goes to Specsavers!!

Oh dear your business failed did it - Well Ha Ha. Perhaps if your business was not catering to the local villagers that are about in the day in winter which consists mainly of older people and parents it would have done quite well. Being a total biatch and a stuck up toffee nosed cow to most of the occupants of the school playground (your prime winter customers) might not have been the best idea in the world. Oh and yes I did tell people that "no I have not been in your tea shop" and answer "Because she is a stuck up toffee nosed cow and really rude" to the question "why". So after your rudeness I am sorry that my large grin was inappropriate when you told my Mum in the post office the news whilst I was making her a cup of tea and sorry you did not realise that was my Mother and made a rude comment about me and then got a less than favourable response from Mum.

Just split up, use a mediator to work out his visiting times etc.. for the kids and sort your life out. You are not even 40 yet you look, sound and act like a very sour, bitter old hag. You are not happy, just get it over with.

If all you have to talk about is the weather then don't be surprised that everybody has got bored and gone elsewhere.

How dare you judge my son when you don't even know him!
You presume that because he is 19, and not working, that he is a good for nothing layabout, and certainly NOT good enough for your daughter!
You should be ashamed of yourself - you have made him feel so unwelcome in your home that he no longer wants to visit.
I am happy to say that your daughter doesn't have your biased traits, (or your husband) and is a lovely, intelligent girl and welcome in my home anytime.

My son may not work (at the moment) but he helps about the house and does all he can.
He is considering college, but even that is difficult for him as it means mixing with people.
He is extremely shy and sensitive, and his oro-motor dyspraxia makes him very aware of his differences and reluctant to speak to strangers, but he has the best heart and treats her well. I think the fact they have been dating for 2 years is testament to that.

Grow up and give the lad a chance.

When I need dietary advice, I will ask for it from someone who looks less exactly like a bag of spuds tied in the middle, with a spare extra large Maris Piper balanced on top for a head, than you.

You lying ****!

 

[TheDoctor]

It's been a while since you left, but we still talk about you.
Mostly to call you a farking daffodil, it's fair to say...

I am not going. That is final. Do not waste your energy trying to persuade me that I must be there.

I always think that when fat, red-faced politicians or doctors suggest that we are not looking after ourselves properly!

Maybe if the staff printed IBM on our foreheads you'd be prepared to invest in us? How much have you spunked up the wall on this ridiculous IT project now? What's the point in spending all that money on tech but freezing the staff's wages for the third year in a row? Do you really think we feel motivated to make the damn thing work?

Ah, still talking about me I see!!
