Well, I've just split up with my girlfriend, and I spent a lot of last night with whisky in my hand

Edit: That's quite harsh as well. Keep drinking coffee until the end of work then crash out.

Moan thread? the new shoes I bought arrived today and they're slightly too small, and the bag I bought from the same company also arrived and, despite being gorgeous, I have to send it back as they've left the ink filled security tag on it. Cunts.

Well that's barely a problem compared to everyone elses.

Alright- my solicitors are keeping me wholly in the dark regarding our flat purchase, which is almost two months in and we still haven't exchanged. Is that better? Fucking solicitors. ARSEHOLES.

And they address everything to my partner, rather than me, even though I pay them and do everything with them. Sexist arseholes.

# solicitors are rubbish.
We asked ours to store our deeds for us. About a week later they posted them back to me and have since kept sending me letters demanding £35 to store my deeds for me.

YOU ARE SOLICITORS YOU MORONS! TAKE ME TO COURT IF I HAVEN'T PAID. Then I can make you present my deeds as evidence just to prove to you that you don't actually have them.

Emule is ok for downloading films, games and such, but if you are looking for more obscure things, you can often find them, but the person who has them is never online.

I just use u-torrent, going at 100kb/s at the moment.
