Last night the screw top for my hip flask got stuck under my breadmaker
Any more? (Not including scarf/nail problems)

The slugs got to my pak choi, and Poppy was touched by a Pov child on the way to Montessori.....
I tend to leave a post-it note for the au pair to sort these type of tiresome things.
If you were of better breeding, you'd know that hip flasks without captive tops are to be avoided for that exact reason. Have you just been promoted to middle class?
The bread made by my breadmaker is too big to fit in my Dualit toaster.

Waitrose forgot my San Pellegrino. Plebs.

Can't you just ask her to stand up for a moment while you retrieve it?

There's a nice little snob in the making...
I, of course, have none of these issues.
I did slip on a discarded fag packet in the kitchen earlier. Knocked over a stack of empty lager cans.
Ocado just delivered surfines capers rather than nonpareilles.
Waitrose forgot my San Pellegrino. Plebs.
My wife told me today she read on mumsnet that Ocado are better than Waitrose for online shopping because they pick fresher veg out for you.
I'm not trying to be funny, but it made me laugh anyway.
T_S_Y - I'd get your man to have a word, that's unacceptable.
My man is on his way to the Job Centre. Now the au-pair is going to be run off her feet and I'm going to have to pick up Tarquin from nursery, I always go to David Lloyds for a power workout on a Friday, that's not going to happen now is it. This has just ruined my weekend. If they've not sent my favourite vintage Armangac I'm going to re-employ my man just so I can kick him out the door again.
If I'm honest my Graze box is a little heavy on dried fruit, rather light on olives. The snails have been at my planted-out chillis, but fortunately only the jalapenos have suffered, leaving the scotch bonnet alone. I'm particularly concerned though that this particular alignment of circumstances is undoing my naescent attempts to offset food miles.
lolol...
Shaun Keaveney (pleb ;)) on 6Music does have a quote he uses from time to time - apparently heard at a music festival last summer: "Rupert, you've left the Actimel in direct sunlight all day!"
Poppy's pony has nibbled through the rope which retains the gate to the paddock. The Hounds escaped from the courtyard, savaging a number of household pets owned by the local proles. Now I've been informed by a couple of members of the great unwashed that 'Where there's blame, theres a claim'. Though how you'd go about taking legal action against a horse, I have no idea.
Its a frightful inconvenience though
We appear to have run out of petrol in the Range Rover. This has never been allowed to happen before. What does one do?
i think this may be my favourite thread of the day!
What tyres for my Discovery3?
"A lady in Jimmy Choo's does not walk!"
Unfortunately, my wife to a colleague as they went for a post-work drink - the car park of work and the pub car park are different sides of the same road...

That's what you get for straying into staff territory, though quite why you keep your conceptual art installation there is beyond me.
realising there was only enough monmouth house espresso blend left to fill the small single shot portafilter and not my usual double, i agonised over popping to waitrose for some illy to make a double shot but i want decent coffee not supermarket crap.*
*true story, i'm having to rearrange my day to fit in buying more proper coffee, i just have to decide between square mile's spring espresso
(50% El Meridiano, Tolima, Colombia 50% Fazenda Ipanema, Minas Gerais, Brazil) or monmouth house blend. if i go to monmouth i can pop into bedales and buy a bottle of Borgogno freisa d asti
LOL.
theres a lady ive been dealing with through work, a customer i suppose, who phoned me up in tears.
"this has all be so terrible (we are sorting out structure problems in her house) and ive had SO much to do this week as the nanny is away, ive had to take the children to school, and pick the children up from school......"
i thought there was more on this list, but there wasnt. thats a MANIC day for her apparently.
Poor love.

Really? Have a beer and chill the f*ck out!!
And I thought I had it bad as the chap who cleans my Aga informs me that my granite could do with a colour change.
the labrador ate my toasted brioche whilst I was booking a tennis lesson
Really? Have a beer and chill the f*ck out!!
but i haven't any decent beer in the house. i can pick up some westmalle brune or corsendonk when i go to buy the coffee though.
I'm also concerned that I don't have very much triple sec left and no orgeat syrup whatsoever.

Well that's just poor planning
Daughter off to Brownie camp and kit list specifies 'metal plate and bowl'.
Our camping crockery consists of the ironic choice of this stuff;

will she be ok with that?
My Dido CD is stuck in my Bose CD player

My Howies order hasn't arrived yet.
This is a genuine one. Used to work for a construction company years ago and the owner was a multi millionaire.
He phoned the workshop one day and asked for a mechanic to come to his house to change the batteries in the remote for his garage doors.
It's a bank holiday weekend, I've given the staff the whole weekend off and I'm nearly out of espresso
