Credit crunch. A recent phenomenon but which has caused nothing but misery for thousands, nay, millions of people. Two small words but their impact on the world is huge. It got me thinking (I know, it doesn't happen very often) What other two words can bring misery, fear and unhappiness? Each to their own, of course, but some two word phrases to bring untold misery to this blogger are:
Final demand.
Work overtime.
You're fired.
Tea's Oot. (Scottish HR term - see above)
Hello Dad (said in a way that translates into may I have some money?)
I Do.
I Didn't.
Hearts nil (an all too frequent occurrence)
Christian Nade.
Jonathan Ross.
Margaret Thatcher.
First Group (see Rants passim)
