For the last two weeks my Delonghi coffee machine has been nagging me for a replacement water filter, and now it wants a descale too.
I'm sick of being bossed around by my appliances.

I don't know what you are all on but I want some. This Denner 1/2 price wine isn't so wild. half the time it's toss up on how mouldy the cork tastes when you suck it.The rest is just a sniff test which wins the race.

I had opened a bottle of Surre Moscht from Ramseier about 10 days ago and refrigerated it. Original content suggests that 4% is imminent. However on bottle’s label they also recommend consumption of it within 4 days after opening the bottle.
Wonder how many percent jumped up ever since ...
So now I’m posting accidentally on Wednesday night instead of Friday ... |

Myself I find the ARGENTO MALBEC RESERVA very drinkable; but I do avoid the cork  | | This user would like to thank marton for this useful post: | |

The remaining 10% he is talking nonsense in DC, but at that point we can drive to Maryland and eat crab and hang out at the beach away from him | Quote: | | | | | The lady is in production of a new voter, jacek.

After years of neglect decided to watch The Apprentice.
Am i the only one who is getting annoyed with regular repetition 'lord Sugar this, yes, lord sugar, but lord sugar, no lord sugar...' It makes my ears and eyes bleed, this submissive show of reverence and subservient, ingratiating behaviour.
The whole thing makes me annoyed and i don't like to be subjected to too much excitement right before my beddie-bye time...  | | This user would like to thank VenusC for this useful post: | | |
