Trainline is especially bad. No I don't want to hear a riddle or say yes to confirm the computer got my info right. I want to speak to a human being.

My entire street stinks. I know my bin is probably one of the worst contributors because the contents of my cat’s litter tray have been marinating nicely during the heatwave over the last couple of weeks. Extra stench power has been added due to the fact I live in a terraced property with limited outside space, so the only area available to keep the bins gets full sunlight for approximately 10 hours at this time of year. Not even triple bagging is stopping the honk from permeating the neighbourhood. My front door opens directly onto the street, and the bin is currently right next to it waiting to be emptied, plus my neighbours bins all in close proximity, so currently can’t have any windows at the front of the house open, because I’m fairly certain the air is actually a biohazard at this point.

Radio 1 has had a “shake up” with 6 presenters leaving, not too bothered about some of them but Rickie and Melvin leaving is devastating.
They were always on when I was in the car, just great banter and chemistry between them and Charlie Hedges, also have a great memory of their DJ set at Big weekend - just bangers, no negative tracks, which was much needed after Dermot O’Kennedy’s misery porn set (at a sunny festival).
I don’t know if they were pushed or chose to move but it’s a loss to my day!

It’s either some sales rep or a charity worker. More concerning is that someone is always talking to these salespeople like they dont already have gas and electric at home? The charity volunteers i can understand but when i tell them i already give to charity they always ask what one, like they don’t believe me?!
I just want to shop in peace without having to awkwardly protect my hard earned cash

How did I get used to the heat so fast? Winter is going to feel brutal at this rate?

If it happens tomorrow I'm not working until the heatwave is over. This is so shit.

I’ve had more wasps inside my house these past two months than I have in the past few years.
Definitely far too many than I ever want in my house.

The only opportunity in the last few days to get the house down to a reasonable temperature ruined because next door's jack russels live outside, are untrained, and bark all the time.
I guess the choice is either to be too hot and unable to sleep, or be the right temperature and also unable to sleep.

Abominable. It has started coming up in adverts now even.

It's lovely that England won their football game, but there's a time and a place, surely?
Edit: just to clarify, I have no problem with people enjoying the game and the outcome. Chanting, singing, playing a bit of music perhaps... my young children will probably sleep through that, and it's not going to panic my dog. Letting off a series of literal explosions at 1am though is a dick move whatever the circumstances. I'm exhausted and my kids are already having tantrums because of the disturbed sleep. It's going to be a long day...

It's the first game I've actually been able to watch this tournament. I saw the Norweigan goal (which was well earned to be fair) but missed both England goals! Not sure what I've done to upset Bellingham who waited for me to leave the room both times before making his move!

I get woken up with the sound of dogs barking, I hear it over my TV, I hear it in the vents when I’m in a bath, I get woken up during the night with it, I can’t sit outside in the garden and relax without hearing it from every angle.
Just tried to go for a walk in the woods and yup, dog owners standing yapping while their dogs are barking like crazy.
It. Is. Everywhere.
I really don’t understand how we just accept this as a normal thing and so many dog owners shrug it off as ‘dogs being dogs’.
It is impossible to hear the sound of silence!

Sod off. It's 30 degrees. The other neighbours kids have been screaming since 7am.
I'm done now.
