I have given this much thought. I suggest the following:
PMT, should definitely go in. As long as it is the real devastating uncomfortable, full version that causes those awful symptoms, ( bloating, headache migraine, etc etc).
What should accompany the PMT is the blokes who, every time they have been so bloody irritating and done something really flaming annoying to pee off their Mrs instead of trying to consider their own fault, take the easy option of using that old cliche, "oh it must be that time of the month". Or even worse, "is it the menopause?"
Yes, @Pipp . I like your thinking.
It is often forgotten that PMT is torture for the person experiencing it. For days. Every month.
Struggling to maintain a cheerful persona and putting up with the idiocies of critical spouses... doesn't help!
Can I temporarily put Homehealth (the suppliers of SD Codefree meters and strips) into the holding area as their courier (Hermes) delivered my much needed test strips to the wrong address and they then had the cheek to ask me to go to the address they'd delivered them to and ask for them back? Quite rightly I've told them to sort it out pronto as I'm not the one who made the mistake.
But... Shouldn't it be Hermes who go in?Absolutely. That is unacceptable. Cheeky gits.

Or have I misunderstood?
Ladies, ladies please. I feel my PMT nomination has been taken out of context, of course I meant the debilitating affliction, the preceding list was just a bunch of disparate words, let's blame autocorrect maybe.
Am I off the hook?????
Mrs semiphonic, being Scottish, was clearly afraid of deportation pending the result of the referendum. In unrelated news, does anyone want to buy a large cardboard box addressed to 'Mr A. Salmond'?
I have an idea, change the address on the box to Room 101 and put the said Mr Salmond in it and shove it in pronto, then we may let you off the hook.

Two issues, Salmond is proving difficult to find and the box was sized for a svelte Mrs semiphonic, not sure he'll fit, further instruction required for hook removal

I nominate the snivelling lazy, pig ignorant assistant in a certain phone store yesterday. In fact I would nominate everyone who works in there for their lack of understanding that customer service has a clue in the expression that those in employment there are actually employed to serve customers.
I went into the store, smiled and said hello to the lad at the door, who was holding a clipboard and pen and chatting to a pretty young lass. He did not respond. Went to look at the phone display, stood around for 15 minutes trying to attract the attention of the red t shirted staff, watched lots of people coming in, being served then leaving. Finally caught an assistant. He then said "can't serve you, coz you haven't given your name to James at the door, so you are not in the queue". Oh, really? I would know about this how? Apparently James should have greeted me, so it was his fault. When I informed said assistant that I would not be going to the back of the queue then his reply was, "oh alright then". Explained I am hearing impaired, use hearing aids, wanted to upgrade phone, have bluetooth, to sync in car, use internet etc. he picked up a simple phone, with very large keypad, shouted, loudly in my face, "this is about all we have for DEAF people to use. You won't be able to use a bluetooth phone".
The lad may need some attention in 101, or perhaps the friendly MILs will give him some 'opening medicine' to help retrieve the large keypad phone from his rear.

I didn't, but could go back tomorrow. There were a lot of assistants, but there were many more display phones, and I could get more than one tube of superglue.Tell me you put loads of super glue on the phone before insertion and I will personally give the MILs a large pack of wire wool to assist with their ministrations
