    Quite right Beds, they're not nearly as big as this lot.

    People who drop/spill their drinks at the bar then ask me to replace them for free. I drop it I pay, you drop it you pay.

    Do they think that the alcohol is free and I'm only choosing to charge them out of some sort of sadistic need? If I give it away I'm the bloody idiot paying for it, and I'm not buying you a drink because you can't hold a glass.

    People who say U2 are the biggest band in the world. Are they bollocks . They're shite , that's what they are.

    Whilst I don't particularly like U2, music is a personal choice. :)

    When people run out of steam when talking and so end up by saying, "I could go on all day about it". No, the reason you've just said that is because you couldn't go on all day about it.

    Alternatively people who end a sentence, particularly a question,with a conjunction, usually the word "or"?

    I don't like to answer before I know what the choice is!

    (I don't wish to be sexist but this seems to be predominantly a female thing).

    Going to an awards ceremony and people on the next table loudly chatting and giggling through Simon Weston's speech.
    And not being able to go over and give them a slap.
    That generally annoys me.

    People that have to follow up a story or something that you have done/just told with "yeah I've done that" and then proceed to give their equivalent story.

    It's not a bloody competition. We're not in primary school.

    Having to use shower gel instead of proper soap. Don't get shower gel, most washes away before you can use it while you are put the container down, and what stays on you can't wash off and leaves you all slimy.

    You need to meet my manager. He'll try and top and any story or failing that totally ignore what anyone has said.
    But the really funny a bit, he has an incredibly bad memory so when he joins a conversation we all know it will be a variation of about half a dozen stories half remembered and sometimes a combination of these mixed with someones .

    Can come in handy as an alternative to drowning if you're in deep water.

    Plasters that come on a roll or a strip. FFS, I'm bleeding like Johnnie Jackson here, the last thing I want is to go hunting around for a pair of scissors that I'm then going to have to use with only one hand.

    "El Clasico". Not the fixture, but it's poncey jumped-up self-important nomenclature. Other teams are available you know, even in Spain. And anyway, it sounds like a cheap and nasty Mediterranean wine.

    It isnt even a bloody Derby...

    As the BBC have mentioned this week, some of these fans, players should go Greece for the Athens match, that looks nasty or the Cairo match where the Egypt FA have to get a foreign ref to take charge
