Think of it another way, if you'd not forced him out of the bed, he'd not be eating.Sod that.

If you had been asked, would you have given a polite response?Morning. I was awake, I just couldn't be asked to get out of bed as it was nice and warm.
Grey dull handle damp here and a bit breezy as well. Shopping day for us

For some reason I am not getting Retirement Thread Alerts. ☹️
No settings changed.
Will try logging out and then back in to see if that resets anything.

Don't think I have ever set it to get alerts. I don't want something bleeping at me when people post!
It is so dismal and miserable here I'm afraid I popped round and bought chocolate.

It's the site post alerts for watched threads - they don't beep.
Logged out and in and it works now - odd!

In my fair number of years on CC, and over 4 years of Modding all sorts of problematic posts, I have never been as irritated by a post as the opening post in this thread:
Am I being over-sensitive today?

I can see it both ways!
I would be less than thrilled if I were the owner of an LBS and everybody started doing that.
OTOH, I spent several years so poor that sometimes £5 was the difference between buying something and it being unaffordable without skipping a few meals!
I must admit the post did wind me up, but can see the other side of the coin (if in fact that's the case here) that colin has expressed above.
Shops often do try to reach a compromise, but are under no obligation to "cooperate to achieve our separate, incompatible goals and come out with a result we can both live with". They've got their own goal to make a living, and are entitled to say the basis on which they will work... take it or leave it.
What's the matter with me, I never usually get drawn into this kind of discussion, must be late for my dinner........

I am back . £200 plus petrol has disappeared from my debit card. Things are getting more and more expensive by the week.
The only petrol Morrisons had was E5.
I am now stuffing my face with a chicken and bacon sandwich and I have a cup of coffee what I am slurping
Mrs SD has a friend who filled up her car last week @£140 - mad world!
