Annoyence:
1. Political correctness
2. Litigation culture
3. Child protection to the point of preventing kids from doing anything at all while going on about all the 'bad people' we are protecting them from.
(Like not letting them start school as we couldn't manage background checks)

I got one of those little cards from a parcel delivery company saying "We tried to deliver something, but you weren't at home". They hadn't ticked the "we'll try again tomorrow" box, so the next day I got a taxi out to the godforsaken industrial estate to pick it up. The parcel was on the truck, failing to be delivered again. One 20 pound taxi fare wasted.
A friend in the US is having a bit of a financial crisis, so I thought I'd send some money to help out. I've got dollar bank drafts before - the bank sorts it all out while I wait. But not any more. This time I had to go to Thomas Cook (who have a little branch in the bank). They have to order it, and it's supposed to arrive by registered mail, guaranteed by noon the next day. Of course it didn't. (on the positive side, the woman did offer to drop it off at work when it did arrive)
And then there was tonight. There was an announcement this morning that the Metro would stop running at 7pm due to industrial action. I made sure I left work at 6pm. They're stopped at 5:30. I walked home.
I am not a happy bunny.
Annoying me currently are.....
People who can't argue and who use bad grammar, and who think swearing all the time somehow makes them appear oh-so-hard.
Parents who allow their kids to run riot in the supermarkets
Neds/schemies/chavs (delete as appropraite)
Boy racers
Readers of theSun and Guardian newspapers
Currently annoying me are:
People with vowels in their names
Rhys, you are OK mate, my only friend in the world right now
My employer, because I'm off ill with a bad foot injury, and he decided that shouting at me because I'm ill will make it all better. T**t!
The pratt on the A4 today in the black Porsche.
Not because he had a Porsche. But because he couldn't drive... Weaving around in the outside lane, drifting into the middle lane.
Nearly taking out two bikes with driving that was either criminally incompetent or deliberately dangerous.
Not seeming capable of operating the accelerator in anything other than a digital "all on/all off" fashion and thus holding everyone up, then tearing off for 15 seconds before stamping on his brakes.
When I am world dictator things are going to change. Starting with the Porsche-driving apeman...
1. People who use a vehicle on the road without a licence
2. People who use a vehicle on the road without insurance.
3. People who use a vehicle on the road without paying tax.
4. People who use a vehicle on the road without an MOT certificate.
5. People who use a vehicle on the road without obeying any of the rules.
In a word... cyclists!
I posted something about it - that really takes the p**s
Nobody should do something like that.
