They do! I’m not sure what the machine in the garage was thinking, but it produced something that looked initially like an expresso, then managed to morph into a more ‘hot chocolate’ type appearance, and ended up tasting like nothing I’ve ever experienced.... but definitely not tea. Still, every day’s a school day
Never leave a new unused solder ring fitting close to where you are using a blow torch. At least not if you want to use it later
If you inadvertently answer the phone to someone who ‘just wants a minute of your time to answer a few questions’, firstly it can be quite good sport to give really ridiculous answers, but also if when they ask the age bracket you fit into you are over 80 they hang up! Eric wasn’t at all interested once he discovered I was in my 80s. How rude
Facebook engineers as an experiment set 2 chatbots talking to each other they started to develope their own language and the engineers hastly pulled the plug Also there are more active smart phones than people on this planet Tell you the " terminator " ain,t far away lol
But where’s the fun in that? They’re only doing a job , and a pretty miserable one at that.... if I’ve got the time, I like a bit of a chat, I just may not be too honest in my answers!!
It's never to early to buy an Easter egg I didn't buy one But it's good to know But I won't be buying one
A friends Grandma had "one of those calls" from a window/gutter/conservatory place. Bless her she was genuinely in her 80's and had the "nice young man" chatting for about 30 minutes, no I don't need windows, or gutters but when he mentioned a conservatory though she was very keen. When it got around to making the appointment they needed her address. Oh yes dear, she says "top floor flat" was as far as she got, strangely he'd hung up. When she was telling me about it I asked if the calls got on her nerves her reply was along the lines of it's nice to chat and it passes the time. So the thing I and the "nice young man" learned was never mess with old people, they have more time on their hands than you do.
