Ok so my boiler is on the blink. I've lit my bioethanol fire and am currently boiling pans of water so I can have a good scrub and wash my hair in the kitchen sink.
As much of a hassle as it is, at least I have access to plentiful clean water.
What First World problems have you had to deal with lately? |

"I ended up homeless for two months recently, but there was somewhere for me to stay with my kids, even if it was shit there."
I feel for you. Been there. But things always improve with time. |

"My house is too big and my cleaner charges by the hour 
Buy her some roller skates.
She uses these to get the post "
So there's no problem! Tell her to just keep them on. |

"I've bought the kids far too many Christmas presents, and now they fall out and hit me on the head every time I open the cupboard door. "
You really shouldn't keep your kids in a cupboard  |

.
Vote green or that supply of clean water might be not quite as good as you think.
So what's the problem with the boiler, I'm no expert but I'm guessing it's a modern one!.fandangled pieces of intelligent clean burning garbage.
I prefer to drink my ethanol with , I find I don't need a fire after a few of them. |

You can. Apparently it's good for it. Personally I think it still tastes like shit! |

"My electric blanket has a bobbly bit in. It is far enough away to get a nights sleep, but sometimes I roll over and can feel a lump in my bed.  "
Id guess it's not the electric blanket causing the problem. |

Every time I buy taco shells from my local co-op there's more broken ones than intact ones. This means I've had to switch to going to Morrisons which is half a mile further away! |

A have a fan heater upstairs now. Though only putting it on briefly. And an oil fired radiator in the hall. Along with the bioethanol fire I am toasty. But I'm dreading my electricity bill. |

Subway don't deliver. I rarely get takeaways, but today I have an unusual craving for a foot long, sure many of you lot can understand that.
Oh and I've got meetings all around the county this week so I know I'm not gonna be getting much chance to exercise as I'd like to. |

Had to post this...just giving my mate a lift home after dropping his Merc off to be serviced and he was telling me he'd been asked to go to NY next May with friends...we're already going to Benidorm and he said they must think I'm made of money, I think they expect me to sell one of my boats to go with them (he's a 3 boat guy)...nearly drove off the road laughing and said I was gonna set a charity do up so he didn't have to sacrifice a boat or the Merc or the Honda CRV...first world problems eh |

So 3 hour wait in the walk in centre. Referred to eye hospital to be informed I could be waiting there for another 6. After a road traffic accident. Ok I'm not dangerously injured. I walked away pretty much intact and the other driverwas ok thankfully.
But still not very good for me to be sat under glaring lights with my eye damaged.
Left and returning tomorrow when they open. At least I'll be well rested. |
