My wife, daughter and I just popped to IKEA to pick up some bits and bobs. After a LOT of dicking about it's become painfully clear that it won't all fit in the car unless one person somehow gets home independently.
Dear reader, I am writing this from a rail-replacement bus.
Everyone loves a happy ending, right? *cough cough*
Well... my wife and daughter made it here in time for their ice-skating 'slot', and I've made it here in time to make vague but encouraging sounds from the sidelines.
Some of you are coming up with really great advice on how I could possibly fit everything (including myself) in the car. Those people seem to be missing the fact that this situation has *already happened*.
Saying "I paid £40 to watch Ian Brown and I'm annoyed that he was rubbish" is a bit like saying "I stapled my scrotum to an oak tree and I'm annoyed that I can't put my swimming trunks on any more".
There once was a lady named Niamh,
Who was from Tel Aviamh, I beliamh.
But Niamh's husband Stiamh
Used to cheat and deciamh,
So on Christmas Eiamh, Niamh made Stiamh liamh.
- I just bought some discounted boat-shoes at Clarks.
- Oh! Great. Do they have a sale on?
- No, I think you've misunderstood the name. They're just normal shoes.
Just heard a loud explosion from the fridge. Turns out I had a bag of salad leaves that had gone past its 'best before' date, and the rocket had gone off.

They always do stuff like that in police dramas. There was one called The Bill where literally NONE of the main characters was called Bill. What a scam.
Earlier, my wife said to me, "I know we've just had lunch, but do you reckon you could a manage a Greggs?". What a stupid question. I've got no bakery supervisory experience at all.
The woke agenda has gone too far. Today my young kid came home from school saying that they'd been taught - in great detail - about homophones. It shouldn't be aloud.
A story: When I was 15 I dropped out of school with no qualifications whatsoever. I remember one teacher telling me I'd 'amount to nothing'. Now, 26 years later I'm delighted to say "LOOK AT ME NOW!", as I've just learned how to download pictures of people graduating off Google.
