This thread is dedicated to the little things in life that piss you off and you want to have a moan about, actually, maybe it's just me, but hey ho.

As I have already mentioned this week:

Girls that pay for a single white wine at a bar with their card...why? go around the corner and get some cash you lazy fucking cnut, you're not the fucking queen.

also

Why do girls insist on putting their makeup on on the tube? And why do they give me a dirty look when I can't helping looking at them, it's not becuase I fancy them, it's becuase I am wondering why they didnt get up a few minutes earlier and do it in the privacy of their own sodding bathroom. how would they feel if I got my toe clippers out and started lobbing nails off in front of them?

Volume on TV adverts. why do they put them louder? I work in TV and still no one can answer this question for me.

right now, that's enough...

@nothingelse But the store credit never really was your money in the first place so why should they give it to you?

Yeah, but surely he should be allowed to use the store credit on the item he is keeping?

Well, I tried to return both items as well, which cost me £245 out of my pocket (Not including the store credit) and they're still shortchanging me.

Also this...

Going to give them a ring now, cheers.

Edit: Sorted it on the phone. Apparently their returns system doesn't include tax, so it only shows "Unit price" being refunded. Getting the full amount back to my card, with no store credit Smiling Though that doesn't explain why the customer service rep via e-mail told me I'd be getting store credit back Puzzled

I think it's a norvern (maybe also midlands ting) as we have it up here in Manchestoh as well. Curry sauce is your standard mild chip shop curry sauce, chinese curry sauce is essentially the same style of curry sauce you would get in a a takeaway chinese curry.

yeah i know all that shit mayng, ive travelled the whole country surveying chip shops and moistness that comes with the chiipage that you only get in the north.
but ive never seen two types of curry sauce on offer. EVER
and a midlander and a scouse both know about it and they are as far away from each other as they are from me in ldn.

Gotta move out of my gaff on 31st July, absolutely impossible to find somewhere to move into until after the olympics (sept 9th) which means either a month plus of going back down to the seaside and commuting up or dossing on sofa's.

She didn't pour it over but deffo didn't want the chinese curry sauce nowhere near as good. Noble quite a few chippies have the both on the menu and you make the choice.
