Lid off, and microwave for a few seconds at a time, with standing pauses between each heating.

Just stand the jar in hot water for a short while..No need to add hot water to the honey.

Re: Moans and Pet Hates - Part 8
Ok I couldn't for the life of me remember the name bottle in my original post so put jar. Although very good to know of the microwave trick I couldn't put a plastic bottle in the microwave.
I put hot water in the plastic bottle then started to shake continuously until my arms hurt. What I found out while resting is when the crystallised honey is submerged in hot water it loosens. So I was violently shaking the bottle for nothing.

Re: Moans and Pet Hates - Part 8
So just been assaulted on a nice walk out in the sun. Yob on a quad bike riding up behind me pulling wheelies dangerously close felt very unsafe. Reacted to this which I guess was my mistake. He jumped off the bike threw a punch hit me side of the head more ear than anything. I grabbed him saw I could throw him but his friend was right there and a gang just down the path so backed down. Not a happy chappie . Likely end up on social media for all his yob mates to see so my anxiety is up now cuz it was far to local

Re: Moans and Pet Hates - Part 8
It sounds like you already done this but remember in the moment everything is fine but on further reflection it's generally totally opposite by that I mean your reaction to it all. You probably feel hard done by but just imagine the guys life. Constantly fighting. How sad. Prison awaits them.

Im really sorry to hear that. Little *******s like that always get away with too much bad behaviour.
A few years back I was in a Tesco Express and a bunch of chavs wandered in making noise and you could see it wouldn’t end well. They were throwing fruit at each other, the security guard was as effective as a chocolate teapot and they started making a proper mess when they decided to throw cartons of milk about the place. I decided I just wanted to get my stuff and get out of there.
Then they began throwing eggs about and one of them hit the back of my head and that’s where I drew the line. I went straight over to the little scrote who threw it and he said in a loud voice “I swear to GOD if you touch me I’ll get the police on you”. I paused for a second and said “fair enough” and accidentally threw a right hook which even more accidentally landed on his jaw, meaning he somehow ended up on his arse. The rest of his gang ran around like headless chickens bipping on about “calling the police”.
I made sure I was seen on the shop cctv, paid for my stuff and walked out.
That was 3 years ago and not heard a peep from the po-po in that time.
Chavs gotta learn the hard way.

Re: Moans and Pet Hates - Part 8
Just found out that people travelling to the UK now need an ETA to enter, Ryanair never mentioned this last week when I booked flights for a few people.

Severe back pain, barely made it through to the front room. Had to wait for Mr T to get up and get me water to take painkiller, still in my nightclothes all day.

Hard to say as I am due for cataract op on the 24th, which it would appear I am going to have to cancel due to not being able to lie on my back for 20 minutes or whatever.

Re: Moans and Pet Hates - Part 8
Morrisons checkouts.
The damn things query an item's weight when it isn't sold by weight! If an item falls off and you put it back, it tends to become an 'unexpected item'!
And they try to hurry you along! Listen 'ere, I had a stroke and my right hand is virtually useless, so of course I take my time! Effectively I only have one hand! The last thing I need is some bloody AI implying I'm going too slowly! I'll give you 'please take your items' - I'm working on it!!!
Come to think of it, as a one-time programmer one thing I hate to see is card-only checkouts which don't default to cards as the payment method - what is the point of asking you if you wish to continue?! Of course you do - that's why you choose a card-only one, to save time (you hope)!
