Talking of which, there's a particularly annoying advert on UKTV Play which comes up every ten minutes or so:

Wash, wash, wash your hands
Wash them nice and clean
Bubbly scrubbly scrubbly bubbly
Wash them nice and clean.

(Repeat ad lib)

I might have said it before, but what annoys me is when the dustbin men empty my bins, then leave them about 10 houses down the street!

That's true.
Having had to go looking for mine on more than one occasion, I painted a big '38' on all four of them.

Yes. Why are so many bin men so bolshy these days.
I mean, after all, they just have to wheel the bins a couple of yards to the lorry these days.

I remember as a kid, living down the bottom of a passage in back to back housing, they used to come all the way down, pic them up on to their back, carry them to the bin wagon, throw the waste in, then bring everything back. AND, they seemed to be a lot happier about it too!

Re: Things that annoy you!

Still cyclists..or as I now call them Bonnet Ornaments...nearly got two of the buggers this morning. They came flying round the bend in the road on my side of the road. I stopped but they couldn't. One of them hit my wing mirror with enough force to knock it back. Maybe i'll be lucky tomorrow.

If that had been a car, or even a motorcycle, you'd have been able to make a claim via your insurance and, quite possibly, involve the police too.

Unfortunately, cyclists are unidentifiable and, hence, effectively above the law. On the other hand, they seem quite proud of the fact that they race around with little cameras on their heads in the hope of being able to prosecute motorists.

I'm glad to hear it's not just us, although I have to say they have been a bit better recently.
