10 minutes of your life you'll never get back

So glad they’re building another Pret directly opposite the existing Pret that is also already 8 doors down from another Pret

I'd like to see your bright ideas for how else one can transport a folding bed

[my-enviable-life]

Useful so I know which areas not to bother getting off the bus for

True say

Where else does one store an egg sandwich other than on the back of a road sign?

[my-enviable-life]

That thing where you want to get rid of both your gum and your razor blade but don’t have time to find a bin or a chewing gum wrapper

Only in Penge would someone feel the brand of Morley's chicken to be so valuable that it is worth copying for your own chicken shop.

Park toilets are usually pretty grim but there’s something especially bleak about not trusting users to such an extent that it’s deemed appropriate to chain up the loo roll and padlock it to the wall...

The car says I'll buy you dinner, but the shop choice says it'll be non-specific European own brand tinned chicken.

I challenge you to find anything more depressing than a hollowed out toy panda, with a questionable hole in its bum, left in a prone position on a street in Walthamstow.

That thing where you finish your fancy takeaway lunch and realise that in your haste you also ate part of the utensil. A new low.

Found on the pavement outside my house. Given how little my neighbours have their shit together, I cannot say I was particularly surprised. Update: the teeth were gone when I returned later. To the original owner or a new one, who knows? And thus, the peckham circle of life continues.

So I'm staying in a really old cottage in the country, and in the bedroom there's a bit of the room that overlooks the bed that I can't get to. I thought this was a bit odd, then I saw that it has a rocking chair and an old fashioned pram on it, positioned as if keeping watch. Suppose I won't be sleeping tonight then.

Street dairy returns. This time, the city of London. The perpetrator has moved on to skimmed milk (which is barely even milk to be honest) and still shows they are callous with regard to our milky friends as ever.

I was tempted to take these home with me but even I draw the line at taking tinned spaghetti from someone’s garden wall. Apparently I’ve developed standards since I took home four bags of skittles from an abandoned box in the gutter.

Occasionally you get some people acting like dicks on the train but this thing is taking it too far.

[my-enviable-life]

Found this in a gutter near my house. How utterly depressing.
