Ah, but what did you put into the freezer instead of the peas??

We can add Jim White in there too. I suspect SJ harbours a serious private loathing for the tiresome weasel.

The feeling might be mutual.

Dunno, they see each other quite often at weekends.

Yes, sorry to hear that.

I thought aviation was doing OK post COVID lockdowns... shows what I know.

For God's sake don't ask 'em where they're from.

Miserable fans desperate for others to be as miserable as them

I sometimes get asked where my surname's from... I usally reply "my dad" ;)

Anyone else have trouble opening what they call here "Blister packs" of medication/pills?

I got some over-the-counter allergy pills in the week and they come on these sheets which you can tear off the individually packaged pill. They give you a corner that can be lifted to peal back the paper backing - first problem is lifting the edge due to a) eyesight and b) freshly cut fingernails.

Second problem is once the paper backing has been removed, any amount of pressing on the pill from the reverse side does not seem to get the pill to break through the foil. Works once in a while, but usually resort to getting the scissors out to pierce the foil to get the little buggers out.

Just put the pills in a bottle thank you...

Maybe there is a "knack" to doing this I've not figured out... off to YouTube to see if I can find something.

If you do find a ‘hack’ please post a link :)

Miy issue is popping the pill out and not realising there's still a bit of backing foil with the pill between my fingers and cutting my lip with it! I've got one of those 'organisers' but can never be arsed to fill them regularly.

Are you sure they're not pills to increase sperm count?

Football fans screaming and getting angry about where the ball is placed for a corner kick, as if it matters. Especially annoying as they're almost always wrong, as more often than not the edge of the ball is hanging over the white line.
