I need a laugh. What are your first world problems atm? No matter how big, small, modest or boasty?

Mine is that I've just bought a grand big mac and it's making a mess and my mouth isn't big enough!

I'm about to inherit a really massive amount of money. I have no idea what to do with it.

I cant find a spring coat for dd8 that i love and she doesnt even need this yet. I like to be organised.

I bought a Krispy Kreme doughnut and the filing leaked and spilt in my trousers.

@youlikethrbadonestoo, store the extra jars inside your slow cooker 😉.

30 mins ago I went to the shop and bought a bottle of red wine. Now I want white.

I put one coat of mascara on and my eyelashes were stuck together weirdly do I pushed the brush through them again, have spent the day looking way too alluring

sizzledrizz · 01/03/2019 17:31

My wardrobe is disorganised, there are too many handbags and boots. I need new specific and targeted storage

I bought a subway earlier and they forgot to put the pepperoni in and I was too shy to say so

I went to spoons for lunch yesterday and they didn't have raspberry gin so had to have rhubarb gin

Lloyds bank have cancelled my card (suspected fraud) so I will not get a new one until next Friday potentially. So I can buy stuff online but am unable to buy food, drinks, bus fare etc etc out. Do my dad will lend me some money - this means I need to borrow money as and when needed and will prob need to explain what the cash is for.

My dog is cold and has cold ears but keeps shrugging her blanket off.

I went to work early to check my email before training. Wanted to watch call the midwife afterwards before training. Forgot my headphones.

Had to walk a mile to my bus stop without music, due to forgotten headphones. Then suffered a train journey without headphones.

I couldn't get fresh egg noodles in Tesco last night so had to make do with the horrible sharwood dry ones

My helper is going on holidays at the same time that my husband is away on business. Definitely a FWP here Blush

Mmmhmmokdear · 01/03/2019 17:35

I got my shopping delivered this week and there wasn't room in the freezer for all the frozen stuff. I had to rearrange. I said to DH at the time how lucky we are to have such a problem!

BadlyAgedMemes · 01/03/2019 17:37

My order of Huel arrived today, and I want to have some to try it for dinner, but the salmon in my fridge is use by today. :(

shakalaka · 01/03/2019 17:46

Do we use the garage conversion for a home cinema or home gym.... Luckily we have tine before the builder starts Blush

WeirdCatLady · 01/03/2019 17:48

I have ordered some bits and pieces to try making my own fascinators and I’m not sure I have the right shade of pink 😂

HeronLanyon · 01/03/2019 17:51

My Addison Lee cars always arrive early then text to say I have 5 mins free waiting and i get annoyed thinking ‘I’ve got 15 surely cos you’re early’. Then I hurry out.

Kashmiri chillies ordered online aren’t red enough. Taste good and do the job.m but that’s not the point in the first world is it ?

I have brexit elbow from lugging tins home over the last few weeks for my stash when millions (and in the uk too) don’t have enough to eat let alone have a stash. It properly hurts and I’m sure it’s from luggin heavy bags.

cherriesandoranges · 01/03/2019 17:53

I have gin but no tonic and too lazy to go get some.

SauvingnonBlanketyBlanc · 01/03/2019 18:00

@cherriesandoranges you have the same fwp as me

Kittykatmacbill · 01/03/2019 18:10

My new washing machine is so quiet I have to go to the utility room (actually a cupboard) to check when it’s finished as I can’t hear from the kitchen (or the sitting room).

Headinthedrawer · 01/03/2019 18:13

My utility room is too small.

Lauzy86 · 01/03/2019 18:14

Now I'm on mat leave I have to go out for two hours every other Thursday to get out of the cleaners way!

FrozenMargarita17 · 01/03/2019 18:16

I won't be able to fit all of our belongings, dd and ddog in the car for when we move to our new house tomorrow. We've been staying with my mum while we move everything (moving 2 hours away) and I've realised that all our clothes and dd's toys might not all fit.

thenewaveragebear1983 · 01/03/2019 18:17

We're going out tonight and I want to drive my brand new, shiny white, 19 plate car, but that will mean going tomorrow morning with a hangover to collect it. Plus I would have to park it on the roadside with all the other, old cars.

Boooooo. Hsssssssss.

MadameJimJam · 01/03/2019 18:18

Every time I drive through DS's school, I get slowed up by peacocks walking in front of my car. They walk really slowly and never get out of the way. Bastard peacocks everywhere.

Collectorofcookbooks · 01/03/2019 18:19

My lovely next door neighbour gave me a pomelo and says I’ll love it. I have no idea what to do with it.

My white wine isn’t cold enough to serve yet and I don’t fancy red or a G&T

HeronLanyon · 01/03/2019 18:25

lauzy86 that is pretty first. 😬

starfleet · 01/03/2019 18:26

Gods of Rap (De La Soul/Public Enemy/Wu Tang) are playing in my city and I really want to go but I've already committed to the ballet with friends that same night.
