@bones oooh stop.
What gets me grumpy old woman is dry cake with a serving of attitude.
There has been cake gate today... someone (who thinks she is Mary Berry but is more Susan Boyle) brought in home baked dry lemon drizzle cake, but it's also a docs bday and they've brought in fancy brownies and Krispy kremes. Just had a Krispy Kreme and got the most evil look from Susan Boyle because I don't want cake too. If I'm going to waste 350 cals (I checked) on cake it's going to be a bit fat moist donut oozing with chocolate goodness. Feel sick now but satisfied that the dry old cow is pissed off.Urgh sugar makes me so bitchy
My favourite midfielder back in the day, shoulda won far more caps
I didn’t know she was a midfielder. Always thought she was hetero.
It was tough to break up the Little/Bunce combo to be fair

A really Grumpy Old Man moment: the Met Service.
Checking the forecasts for kids cricket games and practices, Met Service hourly rain forecasts seem to be made by the work experience kid with a random number generator. Usually starting with predictions two days out for torrential rain, changing in all directions, and ending up in "oops, nothing to see here after all"

They do seem to err on the side of caution which was great if you need to justify all of the extra fuel on a flight, not so much when you are fielding calls from parents who don't want their snot nose kids around and are trying to offload them onto you. Met service default to start on a Wednesday with - "Saturday morning will be Hurricane Katrina", then on Thursday "no point in naming the teams, weather will still be shit on Saturday", on Friday - "hmm maybe wash the kid's cricket whites after all".
Saturday postponements none - "lovely day for the kids to be out".

How many munters have the old ‘messy as fuck except shaved at the sides’ do ?
You’d never get a job in the real world with do’s like that.
The real world has changed, I see heaps of shitty haircuts on guys in suits let alone all the cashed up bogans and tradies.

Oh definitely, it’s very much a tongue in cheek comment. I suppose it’s the equivalent of old guys in the 70s whinging about long hair and sidies

Reminded me of you lot

As far as I'm concerned, unless you are Toshiro Mifune or another such Japanese actor, manbuns/topknots should be illegal
Yes. @No-Quarter was concerned that he might have lost some credibility around here when he admitted to being a millennial (his cred did go through the floor) and now he has a man bun as well. Bloody young people.

Those are my clouds, over my lawn, so go and yell at your own fucking clouds.
