Mr Grumpy

CJC

I live fairly near the local Sports Centre. They've had some sort of event there today which seems to require them to play loud music and amplify the commentator so every word can be heard from miles away. This has been going on from 10 this morning, so I'm in a foul mood. If this had been a private individual doing this I'm sure the police would have been called long ago to shut them up.

No wonder people go postal :mad2:

Still, being nice and middle-class I've made do with sending grumpy emails.

I know exactly the type of event you mean. We have the pleasure of one each year although fortunately not too close in proximity, annoying none the less!

maybe we could set you up with an air rifle or send Matt the Brute round :laugh:

CJC

I think I'd want something more powerful than an air-rifle then I could take out that fecking Aussie that's been jabbering on all day at top volume. Still, at least we should manage to stuff 'em in the cricket over then next day or two.

Is Mark trying to say you don't have fun, Chris?

I have to say Rob when I saw the title of this thread I thought it was going to be about you - sorry!!!

CJC

To be honest, it (a rugby sevens competition apparently) might have been worth going to watch but I had other things to do. OK, so these other things mostly consisted of lazing around listening to the cricket on the wireless but anyway that's not the point...

I'm sure I can throw just as good a grump as Mr B when the spirit moves me (which on this occasion it did), I'm just generally better at anger management is all.

Glad it wasn't just me, then.

Blimey, was just this minute thinking we hadn't heard from you for a while Helen and up you pop (didn't read this thread earlier)! How've you been lately?

Baggybooks

Oh, I'm bouncing along in a lopsided kind of a way. How are you?

I was just sorting out the replies to my thread about the recession and I was drawn to the Grumpy thread.
