What phone model do you have, please?

Re: Moans and Pet Hates
Our local GP surgery is on a small back lane, barely enough room for 2 cars to pass.
The lane was completely clear of vehicles when a large van arrived to collect stuff for disposal.
30 seconds later a car appeared and parked directly opposite the van, blocking the lane. The driver got out and started shouting at the van driver, who looked totally perplexed.
"I always park here," he shouted at the van driver, "You've blocked the lane now, you *****".
Some people drive me mad at their self-importance and lack of thought.

Cable
The only things in my home that use wi-fi are those that cannot be wired, like phone, tablets and smart stuff like plugs

Re: Moans and Pet Hates
I'm on the train from London. Someone is having the time of his life loudspeaker playing drum and bass  it's not excessively loud. It just seems a little antisocial behaviour.

My avatar is similar to my old passport picture only my head was up in that photo.
The guy had a suspicious old photo reel container. A not so suspicious full bottle of disaronno (lovely with Dr Pepper  ) a change of clothes on the opposite side of the coach on the hand rail above the side of a seat.
I had my sunglasses on  so I could look at him without causing offence. I was thankful really the volume wasn't blasting. Good for him he got off at East Croydon. The rest of my journey home was pleasant.

Re: Moans and Pet Hates
Today is the second anniversary of my dads death.
I've just had a call from my cousin who told me that his dad died last night, and his aunt died last week. His dads sister in-law
so a pretty crap day.

Re: Moans and Pet Hates
Someone able to help me out please.
I renewed my passport last online. When it asked about my current expired passport I put not damaged but it was, pages were ripped, one page totally missing. Will they reject my application because I didn't put damaged old passport? I sent my old passport to them this morning.

I just called the passport office. They say after examination of my old passport, if it's deemed damaged they may process the application as a replacement not renewal therefore may need confirmation of my identity by a third person vouching for me lol long!

dodgy passport that means a visit by a man with rubber gloves and a pot of petroleum jelly to confirm your identity, you should practice bending over

Get a passport holder for new one, any damage if viewed at an airport means.... No fly.
How come you have missing pages, what are you trying to hide.
