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!

My dishwasher needs unloading and I can't be bothered, so the kitchen is piled with dirty plates and pans. This is bothering me a lot, but not enough to actually move off the sofa.

I ate too much food for dinner and now I have no room for dessert.

@topcat2014 My partner works in catering and he’s very strict about food hygiene in our house and I’ve started to become the same! Especially since DD misses enough bloody days of nursery due to her constant illnesses, I can’t afford any more!

I'm going to have to get out of our hot tub soon as my iPhone battery is about to run out 😢😂

I bought new super thin but super warm skiing trousers today but there's not enough ski slopes open near my house because it's too late in the season.

It means if I want to wear my new salopettes I have to drive for an hour.

I'm on annual leave next week but completion on the extension is delayed so when it's done, I'll be back at work and can't be around to clean and arrange furniture.

My 6 month old golden retriever pup has eaten part of my £1300 sofa!

My not very old washing machine broke down. Again. I found a lovely shiny new one online with exciting whizzy Wi-fi and quiet operation. I was already to buy the new one and get it delivered this weekend, only to find the old one was having me on and now works fine. Sad

I have my first break from my daughter in 16 years (apart from when she was three and I had major surgery so was in hospital) and I don't know what to do with myself.

Funnyface1 · 01/03/2019 21:10

I bought a takeaway and didn't enjoy it much.

Moonflower12 · 01/03/2019 21:28

I'm very tired after the first week back at school and need someone to be here to carry me up the stairs as I cba to walk!

I also need to take the emptyJaffa cake box to the kitchen- but see above.

I have a cocktail of drugs due to suspected renal colic caused by kidney stones. I'm due my Botox top up next week, so will need to go painkiller free for the 24 hours before hand so I can remain wrinkle free

Thank you, @thenewaveragebear1983 - Google is telling me I can only eat the flesh and not the white membrane? So I don’t need to scoop it out?

What do I eat it with?

In other news, I forgot to put my electric blanket on when I went upstairs to get my new novel. Now I can’t put my new book down but don’t want to get into a cold bed.

The jeweller who resized my ring also "corrected" the apparent misalignment of the 3 stones. They weren't actually meant to be straight....

TeeniefaeTroon · 01/03/2019 23:43

My lovely large red wine glasses don't fit properly in my dishwasher

FurrySlipperBoots · 01/03/2019 23:49

My spa bath is too big, so it takes effort to remain lying 'upright' and not slip under the water!

Angie169 · 02/03/2019 00:02

While reading all the FWP here I've finished my jelly tots without realising , I just tipped the bag up to get the last few and there is none left but sugar went everywhere . Sad

cubesofjelly · 02/03/2019 00:03

I switched from Ocado to shopping online with Tesco about a year ago. I’ve just discovered that Tesco online does not stock compote. Not even the Yeo Valley compote.

Clearly it’s not something I eat regularly but I felt really put out when searching for it, and then realised how ridiculous I’ve become Grin

I'm too lazy to move off the sofa and go to bed. I neeeeeed someone to get me a duvet and pillow.

My Maltesers are in the press in the kitchen and I want them but I don't want to get up to go to get them. Hmm

HeronLanyon · 02/03/2019 06:05

Having a thread about ‘press’ /‘cup-board’ etc (Excellent thread a few months ago about this)

Had one to post but by the time I read the others, I forgot my own Confused

Crinklesmile · 02/03/2019 08:33

My skin is freaking out from wearing make up to work, but I look like a corpse without it and don't want to get pity looks from my staff.
I've been planning today (makeup free) for a week and feel like such a saddo Blush

79Fleur · 02/03/2019 08:50

I can’t find the remote for our lights so I will have to get off the sofa and turn them off at the wall gah!

Pinkbutton85 · 02/03/2019 19:32

I bought the expensive ham for a sandwich and it was tasteless..
