It annoys me too but I can envisage situations where it might be deemed necessary e.g waiting for a skip or moving van.

I hate people at pedestrian crossings that continuously press the button as if the lights are going to change quicker for them.


Also when waiting for a lift when people have seen you press the button, they press it again. Or even if they don't see you press the button, do they think you are that stupid to just stand there without pressing it so they feel the urge to press the button anyway!!

RE The wheelybins, you could just move them back on to the pavement. I would. It's a liberty.


RE the crossibgs, at many crossibfs the button doesn't actually do anything, it's just there to give people the sense that the traffic will be stopped at some point.

Benugo. We have a captive one at work and they put huge amounts of salt and/or cream in almost everything. They actually add salt to their ham sandwiches as 'it's part of the recipe' - there's already salt in the bread, the ham, the mustard and the mayonnaise, and then they add a big pinch on top.

buying "expensive" ones are just as bad... minus the justification "well they were cheap what did I expect"

    • Hello! i'm looking for someone who could do this for me in the next couple of days please. Please let me know what you would charge. Many thanks!
    • All the more reason to support the BBC.  The last thing we want is a news service controlled by the likes.
    • I am genuinely curious… what is this obsession with keeping children active with things to do after school. From what I know, most  CV kids to rugby or football of a weekend but do they actually need activities during the week after school? What about going home, relaxing before homework and I don’t know, reading a book, drawing, Lego, constructing a car/plane.. even making some cookies…
    • The BBC is one of the finest, if not the finest, broadcasters in the world.  They have been admired by many across the world for their journalism.  There have been numerous arrests since their recent expose on convenience shops that cover ups for criminals - money laundering, contraband,  illegal workers and the like. By no means perfect and some of what they have done in the modern world is questionable - the website often comes across as tabloid or sensationalist, as do some of their documentaries, and at times it is full of low grade game shows, fly on the wall etc which bring the punters and money, including overseas, in but is not quality TV.  In their desperation for 'balance' they've given too much air time and credibility to some more extreme views, which contributed to Brexit and some of the rise in right wing parties.  I wish they'd say 'the convicted criminal' every time they talk about Yaxley Lenon. The programme was clumsy, why it didn't go through proper clearance including the lawyers, I don't know.  But it created zero stir at the time. Zero.  And had no impact on the election, so Trump has no case.  I hope they don't cave in like many of the US corporations and media.  Oh and well done to South Park using the small p*nis defence in ridiculing him. What I expect is as the Beeb is pretty centrist in it;s reporting in riles some of those who thrive on the toxic populism we have seen since Trump mark 1 and Brexit.  How sad.
