I've just been having a giggle reading through the 'malapropisms' thread on my favourite football site.
Thought I'd share a few;-
damp squid
escape goat
solemn oaf
tempting faith
baring a miracle
fraudulent slip
pass mustard
mute point
tow the line
pedal stool
dangerous president
neon nazi
mister meaners
baron spell
mask murderer.

5.55pm and a lender emails asking for documents I have already sent them - they have no record of it.
Funny thing is they asked me for 8 items originally, they have 2 of those items but not the other 6. They were all sent on the same email...
And they wonder why people get annoyed.
Even better - they asked for 2 months bank statements for one of the clients as they only have novembers... all 3 were in the same pdf!!!I am a Mortgage AdviserYou should note that this site doesn't check my status as a mortgage adviser, so you need to take my word for it.

You often get similar ones watching subtitles on 'live' TV shows!

Went out for a booze-up on Tuesday.
Started with pins and needles in outside of right hand.
Two days later and my right hand edge, third and little fingers are numb and i'm resigned to having carpal-tunnel syndrome.
Eleven years of heavy mouse usage and it looks like I'm off to the GP in the new year...

I was doing only localised ailments today.
The blood pressure, blood thinners, aspirin etc are a given. I may or may not have mentioned my "cross-eyed" Transient Ischeamic Attack in July 2012?
"First-world" (fat b*s**rd) problems excluded, of course. You're as thin as a rake T. You'll outlive the lot of us.

Ive put on half a stone in the last few weeks - mostly down to the gym though. Theres another thing, I dont smoke, im not overweight and go to the gym - just shows how stressful this job can be.
I dont think people realise how stressful it is and I probably write half as many as any other broker on here (although im on 7 for the month so far).I am a Mortgage AdviserYou should note that this site doesn't check my status as a mortgage adviser, so you need to take my word for it.
