In 2025 are people still complaining about not having enough on TV ,when we have access to a trillion different platforms & stream services.

9. Slow customer service and overly chatty people holding up the queue is always worse on Sundays.

10. The fact that it looks like Classic Corrie are only uploading Sunday-night editions of Corrie (just one half-hour episode) on Monday, as-if it wouldn’t make more sense to upload it on Sunday and a corresponding, 30 min. x 2, Monday-bill for Monday. I just can’t with the way entertainment/something decent to watch goes on complete standstill on Sundays. I don’t care about Classic Emmerdale so that’s not my beef but ya. Such a dry, empty day full of unnecessary delays.

I love Sundays.
It's the one day if the week I can just about switch off from everything.
Unless I'm absolutely snowed under as to any work related stuff

Near all the time, on Sundays everything stops for me and I just go where I want, do what I want and more wind down and relax.

That’s what I hate about Sundays. Everything’s in the limbo, from decent TV (minus a smattering of Sunday-night highlights, maybe) to the shops before and after a certain a.m. and p.m. to updates about your life-situation (which you kind of need when certain things in your life aren’t settled) to … just everything. It’s too empty and boring for my liking. When you’re in a season of your life where you want resolution, movement and change, Sundays being the anti-thesis of that isn’t so welcome.

Children playing in the communal garden outside my window. For those of us who work nights during the week, the constant screaming is a damn nightmare. Especially this one little girl who will not stop the performative squealing. I know we were all kids once, but Holy Lord it just makes you want to lean out the window and tell them to shut the **** up already.

..I don’t know how you’d be with a white noise type thing playing while you’re sleeping to help block out the outside sounds and create a better sleeping ambience…earplugs I guess is another possible thing…I feel your frustration, though when you’ve worked a long shift and just need sleep as we all do…

Way ahead of you on the white noise there, Ammi. I particularly like playing sounds of a steam engine during a storm. That's always very peaceful and comforting for me. But yes, I've thought before about investing in a pair of earplugs, and I think I'll have to take the plunge now.

…you’re often way ahead of us all, Ray……I’m thinking that’s maybe because you don’t get much sleep time though…

What about you, Ammi? Anything you particularly dislike about Sundays?

It’s not even about Sunday-night pre.-Monday scaries/anxieties about the week ahead. The day itself is just so, so, so, so boring and everything feels off.

If Sunday was a person, I’d do a Homer Simpson and strangle it half to death, then burn it to ashes.

“If you like Sundays you are wrong.”

Just-plain wrong, because how? How? What’s so good about abject boredom?

It did. I was already in a cruddy mood by that point, with a deadly-serious case of the Sunday-afternoon/evening blues, but hyperactive little kids running around during the match (not a big footie fan, but it’s a vibe sometimes) didn’t help. I had a pint of water (I’m in-between paydays and skint, so I couldn’t afford a proper drink) and just left.

Going to the pub in general to drink tap water is pathetic to some but there’s nothing else you can do when your disposable income’s substantially reduced and you could still do with the atmosphere of just quietly vibing with your locals, until you’re paid. Match-days naturally give Sundays a bit of a kick in terms of people there (otherwise it’s one of the deadest days of the week) but kids in-general ruin adult spaces, and in general kids are especially rife in pubs on Sunday. You wouldn’t take a kid to Slug and Lettuce so why take them to the pub?

And here we go again. Just under three hours until we reach the most boring day of the week yet-again.
