    Dancing on Ice.

    I'm sat here trying incapable of rational thought, because Mrs C is sat watching 'Dancing on Ice'. It's like listening to a load of hooting gibbons, or braying donkeys. Or maybe it's more like the noise from a football match, I wouldn't know, Ive never been to one. Watch it by all means, but FFS SHUT UP!

    So did Monty Python with their 'News for Gibbons', 'News for Wombats' thing. No gibbons died today when a train derailed etc etc. It's very funny.

Seriously... how much fucking effort is needed to move your eyeballs briefly to your wing mirror to check if you're about the scare the shit out of someone before you touch the indicator stalk ?
    OMG this! It's not hard to wait til I'm alongside before indicating, and it means I don't have that will-they-won't-they moment. Morons

    Also, people who make no effort to stand on the right side of tube escalators, or stand on the right but hold a MASSIVE bag to their left rather than in front of them.

    AAAaaand.. Groups of people, particularly in shopping centres, who stop dead while you're walking behind them. No effort to move to the side, just stopped completely in the middle of the walkway. GAH!

    And for that matter, shopping centres in general. Hateful places filled with mindless, discourteous idiots.

    Following from stickyfiddles theme. People that walk 2 or three abreast coming towards you taking up the full pavement width whilst talking and none of them prepared to giveway to anyone going in the opposite direction, always results in having to be rude and barge past the biggest bloke among them or whatever - kids can be as bad (children not baby goats). I resent having to be rude to cover for someone elses rudeness (/ Very English mode off).

    I thought of one the other day but I can't remember it now.

    Suffice to say my piss was boiled.

    Oh, yes... drivers who leave their headlamps on when they are parked, sitting in the car.

    People in front of you in the checkout queue at the supermarket who, after having half of their items already scanned, suddenly remember they've forgotten milk or whatever, and rush back into the store to get it, keeping you waiting. NO !! - Get your stuff checked out and pay, THEN go back into the aisles and get your fecking milk so I don't have to wait because of your absent-mindedness.

    Drivers who park and leave their hazards on, but because there are other vehicles in front and behind, you can't see the kerbmost indicators and it looks like they are indicating, and waiting to pull out.

    Drivers who leave their rear fogs on when it's no longer foggy. Drivers who put the fucking things on in the first place just because it's raining a little and the overall visibility is NEARLY IDENTICAL TO A CLEAR DAY. Boy racer types who drive around with front fogs (spots) on because they think it looks 'kewl', and lastly, well meaning halfwits who, when you meet them in a narrow country lane at night, and you wait at a passing point to allow them through and switch your headlamps off (sidelights only) so you aren't dazzling them, then thank you by blinding you with a double flash of full beam.

    Drivers really. Mostly drivers and various lighting systems.

    Oh ! - one more... chinese and indian takeaways who fuck up your order and you don't realise until you've got home.

    Lorry drivers on 2 lane motorways who decide to overtake the lorry in front of them, the speed differential being officially “snail’s pace”, and therefor effectively bringing the speed of the M18 down to 55.1 mph for ten minutes or so.

    Then they get to a hill and the lorry driver in lane 2 now finds HE is the slowest, and instead of braking and pulling in, he decides to wait for the lorry in lane 1 to pull ahead before he pulls in, thereby bringing the speed of the M18 down to 54.9 mph for another ten minutes.

    Thank God for glass sunroofs, so they can see the obscene gesture I make as I go past!

    Not as bad as the self-checkouters who don't pack their bags as they go, then spend 5 minutes fecking about when they could've already left.

    And self-checkouters who don't know how to use the machine. I know everyone has to have a "first time" but I don't believe that accounts for all the eejits that take forever to buy 6 things.
