I’m some of those things on the list. I pondered these things as I drove my kids around to their activities yesterday afternoon and evening. I cracked myself up about the first one. This is me to a tee! I never remember to look at my petrol pump number. Ha!
I’m off to Sydney for a few days with Amie for The Block Home Show. We have some media to do this arvo, then a full day of activities tomorrow. Tweet me if you’re there and I’ll let you know where I am if I can!
PS. All the winners tickets have been posted and should be at your house today or tomorrow.
PPS. I’ll be mobile blogging too if I can, so come back and check!
PPPS. Find me on twitter and instagram lots over the next couple of days.

Enjoy Sydney! I don’t think I do many of those things …
Something Gorgeous
I’m definitely 1,3,4 . As for 2, well I do really want that glass of champagne!! xT
Maxabella
I am that petrol waver too. And I definitely indicate on the roundabout, take a number (lest I miss out!) and say keep the change. I’m not the others, I especially loathe scanning my own groceries. I am just no good at it.
Enjoy the show! x
Katrina
I’m no good at scanning my groceries either!
Michelle Hayward
Oh my gosh – hope my tickets arrive today as I live tomorrow morning early and I’ll miss Friday’s post…they should hey!? I hope we can catch up but not sure if you’ll be there Saturday!
I am the petrol pump bowser nightmare… I get there and go ‘uh I’m, it’s the one, oh… um… over there…number…uh, that one…’ And a bored shop assistant goes ‘Number 4…’ yawn! Oh um…yeah! Woops! I try to look, I do, I sneak a peek sometimes as I am walking through the doors to pay, sometimes I can’t see and have to wing it. I am grateful for the days I’m the only car at the bowser… ‘The green one???’ yeah that’s me! LOL Oh boy!
I also do a couple of those other things you mentioned…the sending the meal back one. I’ve done it in high end restaurants too, I don’t care. If it’s wrong it’s wrong! And I check my phone a lot at the checkout (isn’t that why it’s called a checkout 😉 LOL I do sometimes scan my own! Sometimes i’ve been known to Facebook at the checkout while I wait my turn…
Katrina
Let me know if you don’t get them, I’m working something out with the organisers. X

I NEVER remember the bowser number. Even here, where there is only 2 bowsers! Always take a champagne, I’d rather a beer. Don’t indicate when leaving a roundabout, should you? No deli numbers to take here, no deli ques either. No I want that 10 cents! Never complain, I’m just happy someone else is feeding me! Will check my phone. Love to scan my own, pride myself on being faster then those check out chicks. 🙂

I confess, I am one of those: “people who complains about their meal and sends it back”…
Fiona, LilyfieldLife
laughing at this – filled the car up yesterday and just waved in my cars general direction when paying.
Have fun at the Block Show. I had tickets but am having lunch with George from Masterchef instead. I won a competition and am all sorts of excited!!
cheers Fiona
Fiona, LilyfieldLife
and yes I really do want the champagne as well!
Anna
Having lunch with George would be amazing. Very jealous!
Katrina
Lunch with George!?! Omg! Yay for you!
Fiona, LilyfieldLife
yep, my diet can go out the window for the day!!
and I won 2 hotel rooms at the Star and VIP tickets to the good food and wine show for 4 people. it’s going to be a hoot.
now what to wear – stretchy pants i think!! LOL.

♥ Are you one of those people who never remembers what your petrol bowser number is and just waves in the direction of your car when you go to pay?
Sometimes – I always seem to check when I fill up after going to the gym. Any other time I always look. Weird.
♥ Do you indicate when leaving a roundabout?
Most of the time. The rule had just been put in place in NZ when I was learning to drive so I’ve always naturally done it.
♥ Do you take a number at the deli or ignore the rules?
I hate the number thing at the deli so usually just buy the pre-packaged stuff in the chillers.
♥ Do you tell the shop they can keep your 10 cents change?
Sometimes – or I’ll drop in their tip jar. I’m probably more generous with my 5 cents hahahaha
♥ Do you check your phone even while your groceries are being scanned?
Yes, I’m attached to my phone – or even more specifically twitter!
♥ Are you one of those people who scans your own groceries?
Yes – mainly so I don’t have to talk to the checkout operator. But I never scan a full grocery load, I use it like an express lane – 15 items or less.
Eliza
hahahaha yes I am!!! most, if not all of those are me!! enjoy Sydney xx
Hazel Finney
I would NEVER complain about my meal. What if the chef takes it back and spits in it?
🙂

My tix arrived today. Big son is very excited and has already informed me who will be there on Sunday. He also said “oh, the girls from Wagga will be there on Friday mum!” LOL, thanks again!
Brooke
Thanks Katrina,
I received my tickets today! I am so excited…..cannot wait to meet you both 🙂
Fee @ Oh Gorgeous Baby
I do most of those!
I don’t Usually take a drink because I don’t really like champers but, maybe if it was another drink.
I usually never send a meal back unless I’m really annoyed, my hubby worked in hospitality for 10yrs & we understand (unless it’s really bad) if I do it’s at the start and not at the end!
I need to subscribe to your site because I totally missed the ticket giveaway 🙁 but I haven’t read much the past few weeks with baby stuff going on.
Good luck at the event and with media commitments.
Jayne
Yep, the first one is me… but I’m more confused about these people that don’t like Champagne!?
Have a wonderful week! 🙂
