I once had a manager at a horrible job that looked the exact image of Pat Nevin.
She was really nice though, so I didn't say anything about the resemblance.

Oh Happy day!
AnyVan.com have just conned us out of the full fee we paid to have some furniture delivered. Get a call this morning saying it's on the 2nd floor so that'll be another 40 sheets. The people at the other end were willing to take it down to them but the arseholes said no, that's £40.

Took all the Xmas decorations down earlier.
