I've got two firsts - and I spent loads of time in the pub... revising? pah... revising's for numb nuts

(Last marathon I did took me the best part of four hours though... perhaps I should have trained less?)

Dear charity bag collector

No - I do not want your charity bag, nor do I want the other four that I've had through my door this week. Don't tell me that you'll collect the empty ones, I've watched the vans drive up and down the road, only stopping for full bags.

I've also worked for charities and putting bags through my door only guarantees that I won't donate to your shops,

I use the empty bags instead to collect cat poo from my front lawn as I don't want that either.

Heavens knows why the supermarkets are trying so hard to cut the use of plastic bags when the charity sector is doing its best to increase it.

Dear relative

I know you aren't going to offer to help with the cost of me getting to my interview next week and even if you do you will ask that I pay you back completely ignoring the fact that you owe me the cost of the fare to London times 10 for trains and times 20 for the coach. All from the time you stayed in the spare room and didn't pay towards the running of the house even when you were earning £100 a week more than me and the rest of the time we were earning the same. Except whilst I was paying things like TV licence and telephone line and you were paying - oh let me think nothing and of course there is that food you helped yourself to when you had spent all of your money on over priced junk from the spar rather than walk 10 mins into town.

Aren't you worried that one day people are going to wake up and realise that most of what goes wrong in your life is your own doing - I know mine is, thing is I except that and deal with the consequences rather than blame anyone but myself and get the world and its uncle to bail me out

Dear mad deluded journalist - I didn't respond to your stupid query this time because it was probably the 10th time you've made similar time consuming requests from me this year. Usually, I would help but all I get is hassle and nothing else. Also, get email, seriously, it will help

Dear running acquaintance in the teaching profession.
Please don't bleat at me about how tough its been going back to 'work' when all summer I've had to put up with how you've run most mornings for an hour , an hour and a half, then had an hours core work in the afternoon at the gym. Oh and doesn't the garden look good, so nice to be able to get stuff done during the day. Yeah I appreciate its tiring, is that why you have a little nap while countdown is on?
And don't start to complain about the pay now that your back, even more so when you've reminded me for the umpteenth time about your upcoming races several of which involve a 400 mile round trip and hotel stayover...

that feels better..

Dear Driver of the little blue hatchback car behind me at 9.00 a.m today

You made a point of flashing every oncoming motorist to alert them to the police speed camera van parked ahead of them in the 30 mph zone

Why do you think it's ok for drivers to speed through our village especially at this time of the morning when kids are walking to the infants, junior and senior schools. So you warn them today and they drive through nice and slow and avoid the three points. Tomorrow they'll be speeding again. How does that TV advert go about a child's chances of survival after being hit by a car at 30mph and being hit by one at 40mph.

Actually I think I'll start flashing my lights at random cars every morning just to make them slow down in anticipation of a non existant speed van.

just realised I have nothing to say that I haven't already said. Maybe why someone I know said I have as much tact as a bag of cement.

Yeah i'm loving that one Goldbeetle!

Today's rant:

Dear know-it all,

you don't, in fact, know it all, and if Wikipedia didn't exist you'd be totally and utterly fucked in the knowledge department. Oh, and everyone else knows this. You ain't fooling anyone. All I hear when you talk now is "blah blah blah blah blah".

I like Goldbeetles post too! Just watched George Osbourne saying that he is going to cut benefits from people who have chosen living on benefits as a lifestyle choice. Maybe we should ignore him or say he is a troll and be totally smug. But the people of Britain voted him in. Well it wasn't me. Who was it? Do tory and lib dem voters not run or write on these forums? When the benefits of the homeless are taken away who will admit their responsibility?. Easy to be right on in here isn't it?

Dear bloke in the X4 Beamer... you looked perfectly fit enough when you sprinted across the road with your kit bag, so stop being such an ignorant twat and park somewhere other than the disabled bays...

HAHAHAHA!! I'd love to know what benefits the homeless get?! Chosing to mooch off the state and living in a doorway is slightly different n'est pas? I know i shouldn't respond but f*ck it! Also I voted them in and i'm not ashamed to say it. Labour did f*ck all for this country and that is an opinion I am entitled to since i voted - you may or may not agree, i'm not particularly bothered.......Oh think I just said what I thought I couldn't - turning the thread on its head! Balls to being PC - excuse the pun!
