GordonG Jun 2023 1:40pm, 13 Jun 2023 9,816 posts	Quote Pin GordonG my (current) pet advert hate is the deodorant ones showing someone exercising enthusiastically but not sweating on the part of their body where they've sprayed the deodorant, apparently for the next 72 hours. It's blatantly untrue and i don't know how they get away with it. I don't think I sweat any more than the average person, but by the time I walked one mile to the train station yesterday, which was a very hot day , I was sweating despite having used that exact brand of deodorant.

XB Jun 2023 5:11pm, 16 Jun 2023 16,315 posts	Quote Pin XB We are due to have workmen here today to install a shed. They've given us a time window of 2pm to 6pm. They've not shown up yet. Nobody is able to give us an update. Are they on the way? Will they turn up? Surely it's not a difficult task for the installations manager to keep a check on his team and let the customer know what's occurring.
