What's made you smile today?

I've been winding up van and artic drivers at work. I've been covering the reception desk and have to open the barrier to around the back to let the drivers through. Usually I press the button when they drive past the front of the building so they don't need to stop or slow down, but today I've been waiting for them to stop and reach out to press the call button before I raise the barrier.

Works better with artics when you see the cab settle as they come to a proper stop, barrier gets raised and they need to go all the way back up the gearbox :)
 
I never understand things like that, if it's 'all milk' surely that's just milk :confused: Same as 'All Butter Shortbread' it can't be all butter, otherwise it would just be butter :confused:

so called to show they didnt use a cheaper fat in making it
eg 50% butter/50% marg
its all butter because they only used butter

I understand the meaning, but it's not technically true is it? If it was 'all butter' then that statement would be obvious (and therefore unnecessary) as you would be looking at a box of butter, as opposed to a box of biscuits. If, however, they used the phrase "Made using pure butter" then this Grammar Nazi would be much happier :D
