what about those people that insist on having the aisle seat on trains/ buses and keep their bags on the inside and then get all huffy when you want a seat- and get up and move out so that you have to sit on the inside while they spread out in the aisle? i have quite long legs and their legs are nearly always shorter than mine grrrr.

More a feeling of irrational confusion/frustration.


Is there really any point in watching the first installment of Waking The Dead?


A crime is committed and Boyd tries his best not to punch a female colleague in the face.


The second installment pretty well sums up what happened in the first episode in the space of about a minute and a half and the rest is well worth watching.


Am I missing something here?

Yes! According to The meaning of Liff it's called Shoeburyness

Buying a bunch of flowers to cheer yourself up after a rubbish day, only to discover the head is broken one of them when you get it home (you don't get many sunflowers in a bunch :'( ).


People wanting to know if something is in full working order when you are giving it away for free on the forum. If I knew it was broken I'd chuck it in the bin not post it on a forum to get messed around by umpteen different people who may or may not be interested, can't quite get around to collecting. If I was using it regularly so in a position to know it was in full working order I wouldn't be giving it away for free!, I'd be keeping it.


Oh, and people who are sore they didn't get in first on a free offer saying they hoped the person who beat them to it isn't just going to ebay it, presumably in hope you will give it to them instead and robbing you of any warm glow you might get from doing something nice and replacing it with a feeling you might just be being taken for a ride. Seriously, it's almost enough to make you just lob things in the bin instead even when someone might enjoy using it.

If I am in the company of somebody who I have spent some time with and I want another drink ask what are you drinking and they reply "A double Whisky please" but only have a half pint glass in front of them

People who wait at pedestrian crossings and don't press the button. ?

How about people who press the button, then cross anyway. After they are gone the man turns green and the traffic has to stop for the red light... and nobody crosses? AAAAARGH.

How about pedestrians 9 sorry Ladies but invariably Women) who want to cross a road. you stop or slow down and, inexplicably, they are looking the other way!!!!!! Why??:X so you return to normal speed and they are still left waiting.

Referring to people crossing not at lights etc...

My Grandmother used to say that meant you were due to receive a letter. And Tony.London Suburbs a knife meant you were due to receive a visit from a woman (or was the knife a man and the folk a woman?).

When a mobile company who I am not with, call me on my mobile to try and get me to come over to them. This is even more annoying, when the bloke on the other end of the phone talks like a troglodyte and starts argueing when I ask him what the call is about!!!!!

the twat on the "what would you do with unlimited texts" adverts who says he would form a superband - and his inane gormless smackable face on the side of every single bloody bus that passes me at the bus stop


and that irritant renaissance twat who can play rugby and dance and cook (but seemingly is defeated by normal common or garden speech) on the youngs fish advert

    • Hi Sue, they were not local solicitors. Andrea’s was based in Wales and the other firms involved were large nationwide conveyancing companies (rather than conventional high street solicitors). I’m happy to advise clients and buyers privately on what I believe to be their shortcomings but I don’t think doing so in public on the forum would be appropriate, particularly as they are not locally based. My general advice would always be to steer clear of the big conveyancing companies as they are, in my experience, notoriously difficult to contact when the need arises and the case handler is often not a fully qualified solicitor and so issues have to be referred upwards to “technical teams” internally, which was part of the problem in Andrea’s chain.

    • A slightly vulnerable but hopeful post… Hi everyone, I’m a guy in my mid-thirties who’s recently moved back to London and East Dulwich (I previously lived here for many years before, so I know the area well). But if I’m honest, I’ve found the return a little tough. Most of my close friends have moved out of London to start families — totally understandable — but it’s left me feeling a bit adrift and not quite sure how to make new connections again. Work has taken up a huge chunk of my life in recent years, and I’ve definitely let hobbies, interests and a proper social life fall by the wayside. I feel like I went from a fun social life in my 20’s to suddenly blinking and realising things had gone a bit er…quiet. So, I’m trying to redress the balance a bit — mainly so myself and my partner don’t murder each other 😂, and just to meet some new local faces. I was wondering: is anyone else in a similar boat? And would there be any interest in starting a relaxed, low-key local social group? Could be a casual pub meet, sports, park hangouts, live comedy nights — open to ideas!  I’m happy to do the organising/admin side of things — just wanted to put it out there and see if there’s any appetite. I’ll gauge interest and take it from there.  If you’d prefer not to reply publicly, feel free to drop me a DM.  Cheers all! 👋
