What's the difference between"cleansing" and "cleaning"? For example i bought some surface cleaning wipes and on the package it says cleanSing wipes. Eh?
Trivial things that make you annoyed beyond expectations?

At least it gets cleaned. Too many of our roadside verges are strewn with all manner of plastic detritus. Who puts it there? Very unlikey to be pedestrians or cyclists.

I’m more annoyed by the lazy ass holes in motor vehicles who throw their litter out of the window so that roadworks are made necessary to pick it all up for them.

Now your just taking the....
Round here it's the local recycling contractor. They lose that much that a seperate vehicle can sometimes be required to clean up after them.
They don't want to secure their load before moving off.

The first Mrs Byegad was the opposite. Everything done at the last minute, and the hour following. It wasn't the main reason we split up, but boy, did it help. In the end if we had a time we needed to be somewhere I'd tell her we were due a full hour before the actual time, even then we'd be a few minutes late. As I'm always early to things the stress it caused me was enormous. I suspect that was, in the end, her point. However she was always late long before that.

ITV4 replacing what was supposed to be live coverage of the Tour of Britain with an ancient episode of The Sweeney, without a word of explanation or excuse!

One utilizes cleansing wipes, you use cleaning wipes.

We have horrible weather, so maybe not possible to get tv pictures.
But you’re spot on. An explanation would have helped.

As opposed to someone like me...
I live a 10 minute walk from the railway station and on my last holiday I only started packing 25 minutes before my train was due to leave! I got in such a flap that I forgot to take my wallet and I got to my destination before I noticed. I had e-tickets on my phone and fortunately was not asked to show my railcard! I got a friend to send my cards to me by special delivery.
Next time I will pack earlier. Not 2 or 3 days earlier though... Maybe 2 or 3 hours!
