It's like knowing the score of a football match just before you get comfy with your mug of tea and packet of McVities homewheat ready to enjoy the match....

Adverts on the telly with American adverts.An example I heard today:
"Yer noo favrite spat".
Translated into English:
"Your new favourite spot".
I suppose they do it in an attempt to appeal to young snowflakes who, presumably, think it's trendy to speak with an American accent!

Re: Things that annoy you!
Does anyone know when all this flamin' football ends please?It's taken over some many programmes, and not everyone even likes football! It's not even just the matches, it's the hours of waffling about it before and after a match, too.
We've gone sport's raving mad all of a sudden.
Yesterday there was football on telly, plus tennis, plus racing, then more football!
Sport from 1.20 pm yesterday, right through to10.20 pm.
How do they get away with it?
If they saturated us with any other programme for 9 hour stretches like that - every day - they'd be swamped with complaints.

They do it, obviously, because the idiots who do like football happily pay their money to the media.

I can understand how it can be fun shifting a ball around a field with the aim of getting it into an unreachable part, using hands, feet, sticks etc. But, for the life of me I cannot understand why it's useful or enjoyable watching others do it and paying them (large) sums of money to do so. In effect, people pay to watch other people waste their time.
