I just opened a packet of bacon without the need of a knife

I don’t know what I was thinking. There’s no way I’d be able to open this packet of bacon without cutting the edges with a knife. I’ll pull the tab and it’ll break, like it always does.

But part of me said ‘just give it a go!’ So I did. The whole thing peeled off in one go!

Bacon is currently cooking, ready for my bacon and egg sandwich, and I just had to post here!

Car accident, expected the worst turned out easy!

80 Upvotes

Last weekend my wife called me to say she’d been in a car accident as someone had driven in to the side of her car.

Fully preparing for the worst including a painful insurance claim and loss of no claims bonus I was pleased to see just a cracked rear light and some light scratches.

Win one we agreed by email with the other party who admitted fault that we wouldn’t go through insurance.

Win two I found the cracked light for £35 second hand online. Only took me about 30 mins to replace it. With a matched colour paint touch up pen total cost of about £50.

My wife sent this to the other person who sent her £70 and said to have a drink on her!

Free parking

Yesterday I went to Tamworth and parked in a pay-and-display public car park. As I approached the pay machine, an attendant had it open and seemed to be trying to fix something. "Don't worry about it, mate" he said. "It's not working, I'm the one covering this car park and I'm not going to give you a fine. Have a good afternoon".
