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.

    • Sorry but I think it's best if people just check things for themselves when they buy things. In three shops/restaurants (from some years back) I just avoid the places concerned, as in all three  cases I was pretty sure it wasn't a genuine mistake, and in one place  it happened more than once and usually late at night.
    • Sorry Sue - me again. This has been on my mind all day, it's a big bug bear of mine. If you don't mind - please can you private message me some of these shops so I can cross reference / add to my AVOID list.  Thanks in advance. Let's make sure this doesn't happen this Christmas, particularly as we head into sales season. Even more problematic in my experience.
    • Pity you didn't quote what you are referring to, Mal. I didn't see the previous post, and my mind is boggling 😮
    • The Cherry Tree was absolutely excellent for a while when a youngish couple ran it and brought in a really good chef. It was them who renamed it The Cherry Tree. They were really turning it around. The chef did fantastic Scotch eggs, and one of the best roasts I've ever had. If memory serves the then owner,  for some reason known only to himself, took a dislike to them and what they were doing and sacked them all. And yes we weren't expecting a top class  meal last Christmas, and we left it too late to book anywhere else, but we weren't expecting it for a hundred pounds EACH to be quite as terrible as it was. Stupid us. Not sure why you are confused by my post, Jazzer? Did I misremember? Now it's got even more confusing because my posts have been merged and your confused emoji is shown at the bottom of the second one instead of the first 🤣
