For many years now, different people and companies have been telling you the right way to keep healthy and fit for a 'small' fee. Everyone knows that the main thing that you need is WILL-POWER, and this does not cost you anything...

The So Called Christmas Sales

Every year on boxing day, people queue up for several hours in the hope they will grab a bargain in the Christmas sales. You see this happen each year and people lose sleep on Christmas night just to be the first. What most people don't realise is that some shops advertise that they are giving huge savings on products that are less than the RRP, however they were the same price or even cheaper before Christmas. Certain shops ( NEXT for example)...

Christmas 2011

Well, you're thinking, what can I possible grumble about on Christmas Day? Nothing..... This is our first Christmas with our new son Jacob and he has been spoilt rotten by everyone. Everybody loves him, and why not, he is adorable ...

Exploitation Of New Babies & Pregnant Women

This is not a business idea, however, by the end of this you will think its a good idea...

Political Correctness Gone Mad

I do not understand what kind of world we live in where, as a society we are told that everyone has their own voice and freedom of speech. However, on the flip side of that, you are not able to express any opinion without first thinking if it could offend someone. There are things that I grew up with, which now are not able to be mentioned in front of a child in case they go to school, innocently repeat the phrase and offend another child who is also innocent and does not understand...

Is It Christmas Or The End Of The World!?

We went to Derby the other day to have a look around and hope to buy some presents for Christmas. I couldn't help but notice that when it gets to this time of year, people act as if it is the end of the world. Everyone needs to know that the supermarkets are only closed for one day. This does not mean that you are going to die if you don't to go shopping. We all know that over the days of Christmas you will not be eating all 10 loaves of bread...

Thieving Old Women

Before you go thinking that this is about kidnapping the elderly, be assured I am not that cruel. Although in the case of this old dear, I could make an exception. A few short weeks ago, I was doing the weekly food shopping at my local Tesco. Amongst other things on my list, was a small Danish loaf for my wife (sounds like a good swap). I walked around the store putting items into my trolley and crossing them off my list as I go. I got to the...

Travelling With The Wife

To commemorate our first Wedding Anniversary, the wife and I decided to go to South Wales for a few days. Throughout the majority of this holiday, we heavily relied on the Sat-Nav features of my phone to guide us around the various tourist spots and locations. On first day we went to the local town yo buy some necessities for the next few days. There were some items that we were unable to get so asked someone in the shop if there was another...

1st Grumble

Over the last few weeks I have been trying to sell my old Blackberry as I now have an iPhone 4. It has now dawned upon me that people want something for nothing. I asked my wife to post the phone on Facebook across the local buy/sell groups. I had some interest, mostly from a girl who was eager to take the phone from me for £130 (my asking price). She said that she does not drive and asked if I could deliver it locally. Being the nice guy...

Why Grumble?

I have created my blog as a way to 'Grumble' about everyday things that happen to annoy me to the point of "Why did you bother to be born?" ...
