The perfect accessory...http://www.airsickness-bag.com/media/img/air-sickness-bag.jpg Jumbo size, natch.

Client pesters you with stroppy email: "I must have it by close of play Wednesday". It gets emailed well before "close of play Wednesday" (even though we're not playing cricket) and an automated out of office reply pings straight back: "xxxx xxxxxx is away on holiday from Tuesday 5.00pm until Friday 9.30am". Tw*t...

* "Environmentally friendly" paper carrier bags which disintegrate in the rain :-S


* Amazon raising the price of an iPod I had just saved enough Nectar points for (over years obviously) by nearly ?40 within a week (6) - from ?175 to ?214 - whilst at the same time sending me emails of the "double points for a limited time" variety - actually maybe that's perfectly rational rage ..... do they think we're all stupid??


* People who preface much of what they say or write with "To be honest" - so you're not honest the rest of the time, then?


* Being lied to. About anything. Even small things. Even things that don't matter in the least. GRRRRRRR.

The snotty-sounding voice of the self service tills at Sainsburys, the one who orders you, with barely concealled impatience, to 'place the item in the bagging area' just after you've placed the item in the bagging area. Or 'please enter your PIN number, just after you've entered your PIN number. Or, best of all, 'please take your items'.


Really? You think I should?


OR DO YOU REALLY THINK I WOULD WASTE MY OWN TIME BY COMING INTO RETAIL HELL, PICKING OUT A RANDOM SELECTION OF ITEMS, LISTEN TO ALL YOUR BANAL FUCKWITTERY, PAY FOR IT ALL WITH MY OWN MONEY AND THEN LEAVE WITHOUT BOTHERING TO PICK UP THE STUFF I'VE JUST PAID FOR


JUST SOD OFF YOU ARROGANT, SUPERCILIOUS VOICE-OVER TWAT!

Couldn't agree more! I've given up with them if I've got more than a couple of things to buy (which in Sainsbury's I always do) as they also invariably need to "wait for assistance" for some inexplicable reason. Think it was about 6 times last time I used them to pay for a big shop. It's quicker and easier to wait for a till with a cashier, even when there's a queue - it's better for my blood pressure!

Siblings who pay a flying Mother's Day visit ,talk over the mother ,leave a sink full of washing up and completely ignore the needs of a frail registered blind 92 year old ,doors shut that she can't open ,gifts placed out of reach ,chairs pulled out and left out for her to fall over .

And disappear back up the motorway .

    • Oh, deffo a reason not to attend (Bud). Two of my tournaments have been in Germany where they insist on having the local brew as well.  In Brazil it was Bud, but enterprising shacks on the way were selling Brazilian beer, although Brahma is just as bad.  You need German communities to have decent stuff.    
    • You may come into the catchment area of Fair Lawn primary in Honor Oak,  Secondary would possibly be Sydenham Girls in Dartmouth Road   or one of the private schools
    • As an avid reader and user of Dulwich Library it is a facility I could not live without. Listening to friends/family who live outside London where library hours are reduced, book loans limited and fines exorbitant, we are very fortunate. However, if push came to shove I would be more than willing to pay a yearly subscription of up to £50 pa to retain this valuable asset should there be an attempt  to close the library due to funding restraints. I am a pensioner but could afford that yearly amount - when you think that even buying a paperback would cost you £8 - £10. Have purchased a number of books from charity shops and have a pile of them on my bedroom floor to return  to them. Many years ago we donated brand new books in Polish which my father in law ordered before his death. Dulwich Library reluctantly took them when we informed that there was a large Polish community in the area. Although husband speaks Polish his reading of the language is quite poor.
