Little things that annoy you

Connectivity, or rather the way everyone is trying to get you to sign up for all things connected.

Don't get me started on that! How did we ever survive without it!

My new energy supplier want to install a smart meter which would send back my usage details to them every 30 minutes 24/7. I'm alright thanks.

I can't imagine there being any security issues with those front door locks you can open/close from your phone. Supposedly to let in delivery drivers etc. I'm sure some 14 year old hacker has long since found a way into them.

Smart meters are anything but ,and anyone who lets someone fit one in their property needs their head examined!

People who have managed to research, view, test drive, buy, insure, register and tax a Suzuki Jimny and still think it's called a Suzuki Jimmy.

I've only seen the ones that are a video feed doorbell and you just tell the bloke where to leave the parcel, not seen one that unlocks anything.

My supplier is also very keen. I'm not.

I had reason to take the trap off the kitchen sink earlier. This resulted in the following scenario:

• A handful of smelly bits of plastic that desperately needed to be washed out.

and

• Nowhere to wash them.

Do you not have a sink in the bathroom?

Leave them out in the rain.

Take the bits around to a neighbour.

The silly old sod who lives somewhere near me. He takes his two tiny dogs for walks, both on thirty-foot leads, and makes no move to rein them in when he passes someone.
