    Save the expense of re-carpeting your home by getting 2 samples and just gluing them to the bottom of your slippers.

    Oh my, the tips had me laughing out loud, not good when you have man flu!

    I must admit I charge my phone at work, everyone else does it, so why shouldn't I? Manager walked in once, saw my colleague charging phone, had a go at her. Colleague turned round and said you do it too, don't see what your problem is, walked straight out of the office red faced. Legendary.

    One colleague uses the kettle to steam off unmarked stamps, and has got quite a few now.

    One colleague helps himself to stuff from the stationery cupboard and takes it home! The cheek of it.

    The only other thing I do is if I'm meeting a friend/date/colleague in town and pass a store that does EDTs/aftershave, I might give myself a quick squirt to freshen up. Mind, I don't think this is wrong compared to some women who walk into Boots with a plain face and come out after helping themselves on all kinds of make up like some kind of chav supermodel type of thing. How do they get away with it? Eeeek.

    I've seen this tramp/homeless person that goes to my local Tesco, picks up a sandwich, has it in store, leaves the packet and walks out without paying everytime I am there. How does he get away with it? Errr!

    Keep up the posts, I'm wetting myself here.
  • Live close to a police station?

    No need for a taxi back home after a few drinks, report yourself to the police and they'll soon take you back to the station - only a few doors from your house!

  • We went through a spell of getting loads of junk mail...like insurance companies. My husband used to get great pleasure in swapping the contents of two companies and sending them back in the prepaid envelopes!! On a serious note a sticky label over the address on a prepaid envelope makes it usable!

    Infamy! Infamy! They've all got it in for me!

    GOING FOR A McSH*T
    Entering a fast food restaurant with no intention of buying food,
    you're just going to the bog.(Loo) If challenged by a pimply staff member,
    your declaration to them that you'll buy their food afterwards is known
    as a McSh*t with Lies.

    Don't forget to take extra sheets of tissue on your way out, wash your face with the soap and stock up on sugar and stirrers on the way out.
