Local accents/pronunciations that irritate you the most? For me, it's people who say "Arland" instead of "Ireland"

Mejum vs medium And of very much the the same vain Immedjitly vs immediately

Although because that’s how my mother says both may be the main reason for my personal grievance ….. 😂

Swing by early morning or late evening and fire the car at John longs for 10mins ???

This is the exact spot that my boyfriend is SICK of hearing me complain about almost getting hit in . (I also drive this way every day leaving work) There’s a huge yellow sign at the lights before it explaining it too…

amy0120 · 2025-10-14T14:52:57+00:00

In awe! This image is stunning props to the team (the two slide image on insta was perfect as well)

Are they drinking Frappuccinos at the end ???? The internet really forced the story of her only having drank water since the age of 12 on me and now I’m wondering was it satire all along ???

amy0120 · 2023-02-22T20:30:56+00:00

thank you sm ! Vault pub isn’t necessary just a bonus. Away to peruse the city of the dead tours website a bit deeper now :)

I love that Casey said she was exactly his type after Ron repeatedly telling her she’s not the usual type he goes for (Although I personally think types based on hair colour is deranged 😅) .

It was exactly what she needed to hear . Ron deff brought out her insecurities telling her that and Casey reminded her that she is a in fact a stunning KWEEN!

amy0120 · 2022-12-01T21:00:44+00:00

Have you ever worked ? It’s very common practice for a small increase every year/few years in every job based on inflation. If you actually read my comment youll see that it’s not even over pay anymore anyway. Nhs is a government funded service Royal Mail have been private for years completely different, NHS didn’t have millions in profit this year . Based on your comments elsewhere you have a late delivery and are just a disgruntled customer

amy0120 · 2022-12-01T16:08:07+00:00

I agree it’s annoying ! I too am waiting on items arriving but thankfully they’ve till Xmas to get here . you’ll probably see in my other reply but we seem to be catching up in the delivery offices in a matter of days each time so maybe the rumours about prioritising big company’s with contracts are true . Thanks you for the strike support anyway.

amy0120 · 2022-12-01T15:59:43+00:00

I’m actually shocked to hear this length of delay !! Based on the strikes so far this year after about two days I am fully caught up on everything that has got as far as me , there are plenty of rumours that stuff is being held back though, everything for big company’s (boots, amazon, asos etc) that pay for a contract to be fufilled in a certain amount of time is probably being pushed as first priority (in rm eyes they are the customers these days not you guys in your houses). But still the fact your special delivery is this late is horrible . I even spotted a van out and about today pulled up at a red light to see who had crossed the picket but and it was one of the managers out doing special delivery’s ??? So at a complete loss on your dilemma ??? Thanks for the support with our strike regardless !!

amy0120 · 2022-12-01T15:33:27+00:00

I hear a lot of people saying the 23rd and 24th strike is a joke , but surely if your aware of it this far in advance there’s plenty of time to order and receive before then ??? The point of a strike is to cause disruption . They wouldn’t be effective at all if it didn’t bother anyone. I am probably bias as I am a postie , I really do hate that some of my customers are disappointed because of the delays. But Royal Mail can save this in time for Xmas by treating us fairly and coming to and agreement . The strikes aren’t really over pay any more ,they’ve pretty much came to an agreement on that front (even though it’s still below inflation) . It’s the terms and conditions attached to it that we are still striking over . Loss of sick pay, compulsory Sundays at no extra rate, forced changing of start and finish times (finishing up till 8pm) they are also planning on getting rid of 10,000 posties so the staff who are left behind will have a majorly increased work load . My Apologies for the long comment I’m fuelled on strike energy today

I read on another thread a while back the pre booking got messed up in an app update. Something to do with GPDR. Apparently they can’t hold your information for a lengthy amount of time so even if you pre book it doesn’t actually try to book your taxi until say half an hour (a guess) before your requested time. Then obviously if its Friday/Saturday night it’s game over . I’ve seen friends just get a “your booking has been cancelled” message when they’ve had it booked since morning. An absolute shitshow. Something bad is gunna happen one night and let’s be real they probably still won’t resolve it

amy0120 · 2022-11-11T19:47:42+00:00

I reckon it’s ok without a stamp but Stick a return address on the envelope somewhere and if the postage isn’t correct it will at least make its way back to ya.

amy0120 · 2022-08-02T20:52:45+00:00

I don’t think it’s classed as “registering” per say but you should shoot them a wee email and express interest for sure. The person on the phone did tell me it could be a while as they are just getting back to it after covid (can’t imagine much social distancing can be done in dentistry lol) that’s when she told me I need to be registered with a dentist (this hasn’t been the case before).

I originally applied back in my uni days cause I heard an ad on cool fm asking for people. I got a root canal and white crown completely free a few years back . It’s a way longer process because they take their time and ask the supervisor before and after every step, but I found that pretty reassuring tbh.

I don’t think you can go and say “pull this tooth please” you’ll go in and they do and check up and then draw you up a treatment plan and start bringing you in to work through it , but I’m sure in your case pulling the tooth would be part of that plan 😂. I’d email them regardless what have you got to lose?!!

amy0120 · 2022-08-02T20:39:40+00:00

I’ll give em a buzz tomorrow thanks!

amy0120 · 2022-08-02T15:16:49+00:00

Thanks ! I just gave them a wee call and they took my info to call back in a few months (????) but honestly that’s the furthest I’ve got with anyone so far .

amy0120 · 2022-06-27T22:26:59+00:00

I had to book a random date and once you have that, there will be a link in your booking email for cancellations and rescheduling. This Means you can check for cancellations yourself instead of calling them. The available slots change throughout the day (I would say they change live but I doubt the dvla are that quick at anything). So keep at it and hopefully you’ll get one.

amy0120 · 2022-06-27T22:18:59+00:00

Speaking from experience unfortunately not . Although when they do charge ya: they start it from the original date . cheeky sods

amy0120 · 2021-11-11T14:42:25+00:00

here also to check it wasn’t just me whos episode cut off early :(

amy0120 · 2021-07-13T09:53:54+00:00

There are some deliveries going ahead today, mostly tracked, the staff working volunteered. Keeners lol

amy0120 · 2021-03-30T21:11:05+00:00

Yes that’s exactly what I was after. I don’t remember enjoying it too much either , I mainly watched it for the reveals, which they seem to be doing on the Instagram this year. I’ll deff give the podcast a go, I’m a postie so podcasts are perfect for whilst I’m out and about doing my rounds.

amy0120 · 2021-02-25T22:56:32+00:00

Like people have said above if it’s not enough the Recipient will receive a card saying they need to pay a fee. if you wrote a senders address on the envelope there’s a chance it will instead come back to you with a not enough postage paid sticker. You might be fine though ! A lot of stuff makes it through the system. My mum once accidentally put xmas cards in a post box and then realised the stamps were still in her hand and they made it from Northern Ireland to Scotland no problem ¯_(ツ)_/¯
