Little things that annoy you

[fred binneys head]

Hearing co-commentators laughing out loud at unfunny jibes or comments, to try and convey the impression that the commentator is funny and they’re just lads having a laugh. Just do your fckuing jobs and tell us what’s happening, you’re not comedians.

Bleddy ants in the office and cannot see where the feckers are getting in.

Probably through the door. But, seriously, what has our Mr Moxey done to so annoy you?

 

[Grecian2K]

Having ticket checked FOUR times on the short train ride from St Thomas to Exmouth.
Three times on the train and then again by a pair of those ever "delightful" Revenue Protection Officers at Exmouth station.
The only redeeming feature of the latter is the way their normal surly and sour demeanour changes to one of sheer disappointment when they realise that you are in possession of a valid ticket and railcard.

And to add hilarity to their existing "insult and injury" when getting the train back the full "GWR Gestapo" (all SIX of them) were out blocking the entrance to Exmouth station and bellowing "SHOW ALL TICKETS AND RAILCARDS" (no "please or thank you either). And I actually got admonished in a wonderfully pompous manner for presenting my ticket upside down".

These "Ticket Nazis" are a right pain, We have SWR ones here in Eastleigh, Normally blocking the exit and trying to be bully boys. They create a dangerous queue as we only have a thin platform it could be pretty scary when a train rushes past but the main thing to remember is they can't stop you, If you ignore them and walk through there is nothing they can do as they have no powers of detention, I normally ignore them and as i always have the right ticket so i just walk through with them shouting at me "Ticket Please!"

We do have a problem with fare dodging here and the reason is there are no ticket barriers, I've written to SWR about this and they replied saying "They had no plans during this franchise to install ticket barriers" Then to me tough luck on them if people are fare dodging.

Nobody in the household being able to write a simple message on the kitchen whiteboard thing that we are out of strawberry jam !

The one time through the day when I have 5 minutes alone is first thing just me and the 2 dogs sit in the garden and occasionally I'll have a cuppa with jam on toast , Not so this morning bloody annoying.

I feel this pain almost personally.

Strange really, as I don't eat breakfast and have no dogs!

Who was the last person to use the jam?

Exferkinactly !! Of course no one as yet has owned up to the deed and yet the empty jar was washed and but in the glass recycling bin.
