I'm telling you they are! ;-)



The rubber at the end of your pencil breaking off and shooting across the room mid erase.

It's probably been commented on elsewhere, but people who park so that they take up at least two places.


Guy parked up in my road last week near the disabled parking bay, but just far enough away from it for another car to not be able to fit in. One foot further back and you'd have managed to get another car in. Then he didn't move it for a week (I know it was a guy, as I saw him park up). Was sorely tempted to put a note on his car to ask him to park more considerately, but haven't quite got that bad yet, so just fumed a bit instead... but if he does it again!

Being asked if I'm from the North or the South.

Answering 'the midlands', I'm then asked,'is that in the North or the South'?

I then try and explain that parts of the South are more northerly than parts of the North and vice versa of course.

People tend to give up then and my rage subsides without even mentioning the East and the West.

I remember Candid Camera when I think Bernard Braden was doing it in the 60s. One person stood in the middle of nowhere, another joined and another and another until the queue was miles long and no-one had any idea what they were queuing for.

They urk me too.


But i'm restored by the knowledge that they will leave that dreadful thing on a train/in a bar, after a few refreshing drinks.


We are but temporary guardians of umbrellas.

    • Second time Aria has completed a plumbing job for me and both times he’s been polite. Communicative, kept to time and completed the job. He’s very helpful and tidy as well. First job was ball valve in water tank, not easy at all. He and his team were fantastic. This time kitchen tap cylinders replaced and tap tightened.  Much appreciated, Aria thank you.
    • Thought others may be interested to help a local community centre help others.    My bank account offers roundup and it’s been growing all year. As well as treating myself or putting it towards a train ticket to see my family I’ve made a donation to the Albrighton. They can use donations at any time but I hope my donation will go towards the Christmas hampers.    Can you support them so they can provide Christmas hampers?   https://www.justgiving.com/crowdfunding/albrightoncommunityfridge?utm_id=1&utm_term=M22JKQb6W   A donation of £50 will pay for a hamper to feed a family over this Christmas period. A donation of £30 will pay for a hamper to feed someone living on their own over the Christmas period.
    • I've never got Christmas pudding. The only times I've managed to make it vaguely acceptable to people is thus: Buy a really tiny one when it's remaindered in Tesco's. They confound carbon dating, so the yellow labelled stuff at 75% off on Boxing Day will keep you going for years. Chop it up and soak it in Stones Ginger Wine and left over Scotch. Mix it in with a decent vanilla ice cream. It's like a festive Rum 'n' Raisin. Or: Stick a couple in a demijohn of Aldi vodka and serve it to guests, accompanied by 'The Party's Over' by Johnny Mathis when people simply won't leave your flat.
    • Not miserable at all! I feel the same and also want to complain to the council but not sure who or where best to aim it at? I have flagged it with our local MP and one Southwark councillor previously but only verbally when discussing other things and didn’t get anywhere other than them agreeing it was very frustrating etc. but would love to do something on paper. I think they’ve been pretty much every night for the last couple of weeks and my cat is hating it! As am I !
