We aren't grumpy Johnboy, it's constructive criticism.

Dear CEO Grumpy Sod's, I wish to apply for the recently advertised Apprentice Grumpy Old Sod vacancy.
I feel that I am very well qualified for this post, indeed this week I even said "In the name of sanity...." and "When I was a boy......".
If you accept my application, then I have already started work and just need to know the name of my Foreman Grumpy Old sod, so I can fecth him a box of holes and a bucket of steam for his morning tea break.
Yours, Trainee Grumpy Old Sod.

Do not put off thanking people when they have helped you, as they may not be there to thank later.

Sorry but old habits are hard to break and I am still watching but this week Toby had an idea for storing root veg in sort of soil (could have been compost) filled dustbins set in large holes in the ground.
I didn't fancy the idea but what amazed me was the fact he was going to store a mixture of root veg in the container including potatoes!! Why would potatoes need storing in this way I wonder?

He was using the dustbin as a vermin proof barrier to a clamp. All root veg were stored in a clamp before we had cold storage and imported produce.
I thought it was a good idea and something I will be copying, although I won't be burying mine.

I just love that grumpy old sod site. Brilliant. I can think of many people I would like to add to the list for the W****r of the Week awards. I could keep it going for quite a number of years.
Have popped the site onto my facebook page so that other Grumpys that I know can access it and give vent to their feelings........and to know that there are more of us Grumps around than they thought.
I wonder what is the correcte collective noun is for a bunch of Grumpy Old Sods is?
