People who have cases/suitcases that has wheels on, they carry them down stairs, then stop right at the bottom to put the case down and pull the handle up, rather than walk forward a few more feet, and be considerate to those following.
I am getting fed up with seeing the word 'free' and some kind of cost related to its use applied within the same advertisement.
How much longer do we go on ignoring or getting used to this contradiction?
Isn't it just a plain old lie?
Think Duncan means things like, get a free mobile phone when you have to pay a £30 a month contract to get it.
what pisses me off is needing to speak to four people on phone to get a home visit from the out of hours doctor!!!
#1 - a man who takes all the details then passes me onto
#2 - a nurse who takes all the details again... tells me I shall be phoned back in a few minutes..
an hour and half passes... phone rings...
#3 - another nurse who asks me all the same things that i have already told the other 2... she then says a doctor shall phone in a few minutes..
another hour and half passes... phone rings...
#4 the doctor - who ... yes you guessed it~~ asks me all same questions again, then says can I take my mum to the hospital to be seen... no I say... the reason I rang over 3 hours ago was that district nurse wanted her seen at home...
so the outcome was that 5 hours after the first call she got seen finally...
I am finally calm about it all. Just glad that all the doctor had to do was adjust mums morphine intake, and it wasnt an actual dire emergancy!!
Things that piss me off....
1 things that other people say
2 things that other people do
apart from that I'm quite tolerant
Dwarfs with spiky hats :mad:
Lorries fitted with 56mph speed limiters trying to overtake other lorries doing 55mph on a dual carriageway.
people who lead you on with lies.
and you find out by other means the truth.
The way teenagers keep writing OV instead of OF! Whats the point in that?
Short people with umbrellas.
Odd socks from the washing, where do all the others go?
Cyclists at night who:
Wear dark clothes with no reflective bands or jackets,
use no lights at all,
or use just a flickering red at the back and/or a flickering white at the front.
As a driver I have no wish to harm them or damage my car avoiding them. But don't they realise that while the flickeing lights attract attention they offer no help in working out how far away the cyclist is? I'm not sure why that is, but a steady light on the bike makes it much easier to judge the distance to the bike.
The best vision on a bike at night is something that picks up car headlights and reflects - rather than just orange fabric, a bright steady light front and back as well as the flickering lights if they want. This is particularly essential when the car driver is battling with oncoming headlights on beam or badly set (isn't that part of the MOT?), rain/snow falling or spray being thrown up by the car in front.
I've seen a great thing which is a cover for a back-pack that is reflective etc just like a jacket. Good because if you wear a fjacket and then put a backpack on, it covers the most visible bit of the jacket.
Also, I would love to see a push at schools and companies to encourage people who cycle to and from them to have lights on their bikes.
Old Christmas trees blowing round the streets like heavy duty dangerous tumble weeds.
