    People in slow moving traffic who leave monster gaps in front of them so that cars from other lanes can dive in at will. Every car that gets in front of them is putting me another car back in the queue.

    ****s.

    Look at those razor edges and how close it came to taking out an artery.

    I bet that landed on the middle of the green and ended up 60 feet away in a deep bunker.

    Traffic bulletins/Local radio.

    I have traffic selected on the radio, so BBC Oxford over-ride whatever radio station I am listening to. All good so far, I don't know how it works but I imagine there's a signal embedded in the broadcast to start and stop the traffic news.

    When the traffic news is finished, do I want to listen to 30 seconds of the presenter talking crap to the traffic announcer? NO! Get me back to what I was listening too.
    They talk about the most boring boring things, just end the traffic news or press the button you arse holes.

    As of today, zip wires. My fearless (but apparently not that adept) 8year old fell off one this afternoon and has broken both her wrists. It's going to be a long summer...:doom:

    That's awful, sorry HH. Here's hoping for a speedy recovery (and that she continues to be fearless when all is well again).

    Not terrible but bad enough for both arms to be in plaster. She was standing up and lost her grip at the end so fell fast and from a good height - landed on her wrists and face but luckily only grazed the latter.

    Hopefully you console her that they will probably heal just in time for the first week back at school :]]

    Seriously though, what a crappy injury. Hope you don't have too much of a tortuous summer.

    Unlucky HH, kids do this sh*t at the worst times. I've been to Mount Vernon and Watford General so much recently that I'm sure I should qualify for some sort of bonus.

    Anally retentive cyclists and motorcyclists with video cameras and a frustrated, worst kind of traffic policeman mentality (and thats really tragic) who MUST post their latest "challenge" on You Tube.

    Just, relax people, and let it go.... you're going to die protesting you were in the right.

    What about it? I'm trying to scout out future dates to get drunk on and this seems like a lokely candidate. I was warned about In The Night Garden Live and god was that person right...

    Websites

    Forms online that are in the wrong format or just plain dumb. Brittany ferry booking asks for your age, then next box asks for DOB. Surely there's a way to work it out.

    Also naked wine's website asks if you want a free bottle of wine, offers no real explanation apart from calling you stupid not to accept a free bottle added to your order. click the yes button and you sign up to pay £20 a month into your account and get discount on wine. Nice and misleading and takes a couple of minutes to work out how to cancel. Thanks for that, won't be using your service again (after free voucher we had).

    Monarch charging me a rate of 1.7 when buying coffee on the plane with some Euros, then coming round with a charity collection before landing. GIVE THEM THE ****ING PROFIT FROM THE DODGY EXCHANGE RATES.

    To be fair, they did look a bit sheepish asking for donations and everything else was great with them.

    Sc*m airport for taking an hour to deliver bags onto the carousel. Maybe it was my son's Watford backpack that caused it?

    Flies. Only in summer do they find their way in. Why won't the canuts shut the door.

    Being at work, when both your bosses are on holiday, it's your last week on placement and they've given you nothing to do...

    Literally sat and played stick cricket for a good hour today. It's so boring.

    Tailgaters. Just had a white merc right up my jacksie all the way along Vicarage Road and through the hospital with lights bright on until he turned into the Sexual Health Clinic which was apt as he was an irritating ****!

    Putting on suntan lotion - it's just a pain

    When can I swallow a tablet that will protect me from UV rays

    Especially if you're a hairy fellow!

    Also, why can't they make it a different colour when you apply it that fades as it soaks in, so you know where you're covered and where you've missed?

    I agree, particularly on a beach (sand, etc). The last few years I have been using that "once a day" stuff from Reimann or (much cheaper) from Calypso. Put it on after the morning shower, it rubs in easily and not greasy, then don't need to replenish for the whole day, no matter how much swimming, etc, I do.

    Seems to work for me, anyway.

    I used that P20 once - easily the best lotion to apply and only need to do it once...I woke up in the morning looking like a tomato as factor 20 was not high enough for my lily white skin

    Same here. This has suddenly escalated in the last few weeks to the point where I'm starting to act like a **** myself to these people. This morning I had someone so close that by simply lifting my foot off the accelerator they almost hit me, so I kept doing it. If I have kids in the car now and someone tailgates I'll just slow down to a speed that I consider safe with someone so close behind. I must get one of those rear facing cameras.
