A light-hearted thread for piss-takers wink

Five hour round trip to orthodontist today. I needed a coffee. I didn't buy it from Starbucks (don't like their coffee anyway).

Can I have some P(olitical)C(orrectness) points, please?

What else earns PeeCee points nowadays?

Could have done without that image Jo5 - hope I can lose it before bedtime.

Ana - I live in a block of flats - nobody has a garden and the flats are outside a tiny ski resort. I don't know anybody because the other flats are nearly all just holiday lets for the ski season.

OK, you're excused compost duty, Greatnan! grin

Thank you!

I'm getting a really bad picture here.

Someone. Living in one room. No heating. Swaddled in a duvet against the alpine cold, rags for clothing. Freezer stuffed full only of baguette pieces. A single light on in one small window in an otherwise deserted block of holiday lets. Not even a mushroom growing in a box of compost (no stairs).

Thank God for the box of wine.

I think I'm going to cry.

I made soup out of the slightly wizened vegetables and the really wizened ones went in the compost.... any points? I put all my old plastic carrier bags into the bag re-cyling at the car park in town and remembered to have my canvas bags with me smile , no central heating ( but it is warm) just a log fire (smoke pollution probably cancels the good!) BUT I bought hideously commercial party plates/ cups etc for DDs 4th birthday party on Sunday...damn lost all pee-cee points shock

We're having a bit of building work done after Christmas so the other day I removed loads of gravel from a path, sieved and washed it and put it in a spare wheelbarrow ready to re-use next spring.

Do osteopaths take PeeCee points off their bill??

nanej, depending on where you live, plastic/paper plates and cups can be recycled, so you may be able to recoup your PeeCee points. Hope your GD has a lovely party - and you too of course. smile
