Sore Hand

We had chums round for supper last night (which mostly went swimmingly). I was also trying to freecycle the old fridge.
Negotiations over the fridge meant I needed to check my mail during the evening to see if the fridge could go. However, the computer resolutely denied me access to the internet, for no apparent reason. All bloody evening. This caused me to 1: leave the oven on the start setting, resulting in a cool and curdled haddock pie after the requisite 30 minutes oven time, and 2: punch the computer screen in utter frustration at it's inability to talk to the outside world, in spite of reinstalling the f*cking BT software (again). Supper eventually went well.
Today, I wonder at my bruised and swollen knuckle, and that the PC works as if nothing had happened. I have really had it with this computer.
Top tip: Supermarket managers: razor blades are your most shoplifted item. Why not sell them at an affordable price, thus allowing the average human male to be able to pay for them

Why would anybody want razor blades?

Is that an admission or a social comment?

I often revert to punching things that don't work too... Luckily not living things :]

Peter said...

ans sometimes its cheaper to buy a whole new razor with spare blades, then to buy the spare blades...

I agree about razors, if I had untold wealth I would buy 365 a year, but as it is, its more like 52 a year, and thats pricey.

Cool fridge, sure you cant sell it?

I agree with Andre on the fridge, you should try and sell it. If I was living in your neighbourhood I would be around to collect it in an instant.

My PC is acting up too, one day it works fine and the next I have to reboot it 6 times before it even wants to come alive properly :( I hit it too, but I just say I am administering CPR :)

I haven't needed to punch anything/anyone for a good while now. Is this a good or bad omen, I ask myself.

When I worked in a chemists shop, out small packs of razor blades were stolen too and they were only 67p. And the citric acid (used for cutting in with drugs).

other things we had to hide were lynx body spray, batteries, and oil of ulay.
