OK I know we did this a while back.........but what things *really* wind you up? Here's a few of mine: 1) People on the bus who have music on their mobile phones and insist on inflicting it really loudly on the rest of the passengers - it's usually some dance/hip hop shite  Get some bloody earphones!  2) People in KFC/Burger King/McVomalds/any fast food outlet of your choice who leave all their litter/crap on the table and can't be bothered to put it in the bin as they leave . 3) Litterbugs in general. 4) Trying to talk to a human being on the phone about a query/problem and either getting an entirely automated response for about 10 mins culminating in being asked to call another number, or getting thru to someone who can't speak English and doesn't know WTF you're on about! 5) Double glazing/wall coating/new kitchen/anything like that telephone calls in the evening - they soon bog off tho if you tell them you're registered with the TPS ;D That's a few to be going on with ;D I'm sure some bright spark will come back with 'people who put lists of what winds them up on message boards' ;D ;D - I'm ready for ya!  I know I have more but I'm tired and brain isn't functioning properly. Oh and I forgot my star choice which we have mentioned recently (ish) - people who don't know their own mobile phone numbers! ;D  This is a work based annoyance BTW |

OK I know we did this a while back.........but what things *really* wind you up? I would agree with all of those, except the not knowing ones own mobile number because I can never remember mine! I'd like to add: *Dog owners who don't clean up after their dog (yuck!) *Parents who act like their badly behaved kids are nothing to do with them. *People who march through doors as if they think your sole purpose in life is to hold it open for them! --------<off to audition for Grumpy Old Women> ;D |

I should really stay away from this thread......
I hate cold calls aswell they normally bore you to death for half hour cause they don't let you get a word in even to say no thanks, and even when you say no they say but.......oh that peeves me.
Although i like to make it fun for myself sometimes by saying oh i'll have to ask the missus or the missus deals with all that sort of stuff, you know spice it up a bit. Although i reckon should ask them what the weather is like in India and why their firm only seems to employ people who can barely speak english.
i could write a book on things that wind me up, but i shall leave it with that one ......hehehehe
Woody
I can't tell you my mobile number off the top of my head either, my excuse been i never call myself!!!!

Drivers in the outside lane of motorways doing 70 or less. When you open a carton of milk and the little tag tears off without removing the seal. Drivers in the middle lane of motorways doing 70 or less. Architects with a capital A (and a cravat). Drivers in the inside lane of motorways doing 70 or less. Chavs. Any driver in front of me going slower than I want to go. "Customer Support" facilities that are only open when I am at work and unable to ring them. Parent and child parking spaces. Grannies who can't operate supermarket trolleys properly. Motorway services where you just want a coffee, but have to queue behind 50 people ordering breakfast cos they've only got one cash till open. And thats only what's annoyed me today (so far). |

No fairies please! LMAO Woody! ;D Fraid I can't join your league - I love tomatoes. However, I loathe tomato ketchup and tomato juice, so perhaps I could be an honorary member?  ;D I also love cherries, but hate 'cherry flavoured' things - am I weird?  ;D |

Liz you could have swiped me one, just cause i can't grow me own doesn't mean i don't wanna be all business at the front and all party at the back. I could have it all party at the back but it would be all shiny at the front and it don't have quite the same effect. Its always good to have something for the ladies to grab onto Woody |
