tko Posted May 19, 2021 Share Posted May 19, 2021 Just got my annual extension. Usually I was in and out of immigration in about 20 minutes for this. Now that my renewal date has switched to early June due to getting a new passport, they're very busy. I was there for 40 minutes, sent away for the lunch hour, then it took another 45 minutes after lunch. Still better than a lot of other immigration offices, though. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thumper63 Posted May 19, 2021 Share Posted May 19, 2021 Just crawling out of bed. Had the last 3 days off due to my fractured foot. Get a soft cast today so I can get back to work. Have enjoyed the time off. 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coxyhog Posted May 20, 2021 Share Posted May 20, 2021 I have pain in both knees which is getting worse.All the GP's say is build up the muscles in the gym which I've been trying to do but after playing snooker on Tuesday I could hardly walk. So I tried to get a self referral appointment at an NHS physio in Hemel Hempstead.She asked me what docs surgery I am in & then started taking my details.Half way through she said "Oh that's in Hertfordshire,we can't take self referrals from Herts"....Hemel is in fucking Herts....so they can probably take self referrals from Yorkshire but not on their doorstep.No wonder the country's f***d. So now I'm sitting here awaiting a call from my surgery. PS I bet they don't get too many snooker related injuries😂. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nightcrawler Posted May 21, 2021 Share Posted May 21, 2021 GUILTY OF 2nd DEGREE MURDER Have had a recent invasion of mice. I think they have come in through the kitchen drain pipe. I have just disposed of the 2 victims. They were trespassing on private property and deserved everything they got. If nothing is done, they breed quickly and eat you out of house and home 🙄 Warning!!!! ****contains graphic images**** 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

boydeste Posted May 22, 2021 Share Posted May 22, 2021 Mice are horendous, especially in numbers. Rats are worse. I kill many of each during the year at home and whilst fishing. The fuckers will chew and eat through almost anything and leave a trail of destruction. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boydeste Posted May 22, 2021 Share Posted May 22, 2021 I had planned a day of sorting some fishing gear out for a trip to Wales, but I got a call this morning to prospone as all the rain has caused the river to breach into the lake. It's fairly dry here today, so I may take a longer walk than usual and see how many pubs I can get past without stopping. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've only had mice in my house twice over the 35 years I have lived here and they were easy to get rid of; thankfully we don't have rats because they cannot survive our long winters...

Pretty much same here. No rats but we do have rattlesnakes, Bobcats, mountain lions, bears and drunken cowboys. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
