Ben Shepherd speaking so fast during Tipping Point you can hardly follow what he's saying.
Ben Shephard and his ridiculous buzz words/sayings on tipping point.
"Slider", "Rider", oooooh, a bit of "lateral" there!
I know his job is to spice up this dull game, but c'mon!
It seems there are many of us that find something irritating about Tipping Pount but we all continue to watch it 😁
I only watch it for nostalgic reasons.
Chuckling away as George from Bedworth loads up drop zone 3 and then Margaret from Birtley swoops in and scores the lot,,,, reminds me of my days hawking about Nobles amusements!
That, and the fact I seem to be in the house more often than not these days!
:faf: absolutely!
Agree with most of the tipping point peeves, although I've watched it religiously every lunch time since lockdown. :greengrin
Mine is when people don't just try to go for the mystery prizes when they're clearly not going to progress further. Come on Sandra you need 22 counters, just bag yourself a weekend away in a luxury tree house and be done with it.
People from eg Birmingham winning a hotel stay in Aberdeenshire, or vice versa.
I have heated up a couple of things recently and when I've went to peel the plastic from the top only the plastic round the edges has come off the container, leaving me with a perfectly vacuum sealed bit of plastic still on my food container that I have to cut round to remove
Back to scratch made meals for me
Folk at self service tills who scan all their shopping through, then pay, and THEN want to put it into bags!
just put it into bags as you scan FFS!!!:fuming::grr:
Security guards not doing their jobs properly.
I have removed two security tags recently for friends who have purchased clothing items, set the alarm off as they left and been waved on by the security guard who on each occasion told them it’s okay the alarm is just a sticker on the cardboard label. When they got home they realised there was a hard plastic security tag attached to their garments. Not a problem as my previous years spent in Security meant I know how to remove most of them in seconds but bloody annoying if you can’t and have to return. Both times it was Sainsbury’s
That gets right on my tits as well. You tend to see it in the metro stores. Said prick turns up at the checkout with his basket and a rucksack, he then scans everything through and drops the shoulder to reveal his bag which he then takes an eternity to load up. Shooting is too good for these people.
People without an exemption still not wearing masks in shops.Time for mask marshalls to be appointed.
Pumpkins and trick or treating. When I was young carving an old turnip was a test of both physical strength and character and then we went guising.

The volvo advert with the 'every morning at half past 4' song :grr:
Following on from the Halloween theme, whatever happened to bonfire night? When I was young the week leading up to bonfire night was spent with a piece of waste ground being used as a temporary site to build a huge pile of flammable furniture that was no longer required in people’s houses, we would pass every day and watch the pile get bigger and bigger ready for the big day. The day itself was a massive community event with everyone gathering round the bonfire with sparklers and some fireworks. These events passed of with minimal casualties and a great night was had by all. Now you have organised displays and the firefighters putting out fires all over the place. Get back to the old way of doing things, ffs some people don’t even call it bonfire night anymore.
I can't speak for elsewhere but when I was growing up it was a minority that spoiled it for everyone.
You'd watch the bonfire pile growing, rival bonfires would nick things off other piles and early doors it was pretty family orientated with sparklers and so on. As the night progressed it was taken over by folk who were pished and they would start firing rockets across the road and aiming them at buses; one year someone got thrown on the fire when a fight broke out and was pretty seriously injured.
It ended up with an organised fireworks display being put together and the unofficial community bonfire disappeared.
