    traffic lights.

    if i'm in a hurry, i don't expect to be held up at these pointless contraptions.

    and drivers who are not ready to go the moment the light goes amber, pay attention ffs.

    Try living in the midlands, here they slow down when approaching a green traffic light, after learning to drive in London, it does my head in

    2 out of 4 of us turned down for The Oval, Eng v Aussies. 2 still to hear.

    However, this happened this year & as not everyone, will take up the option, you should get them on priority on Tuesday 25th, if you get in earlyish.

    I've got tickets for Edgbaston, they are on general sale & plenty still available, although not on Saturday.

    I think Trent Bridge are still available as well, although, didn't bother, having got Edgbaston.

    I was thinking about giving you a like for that post, Paulie, but you might use it as evidence against me to prove that I am boring.

    Lists of ingredients that start with 'aqua'. If you can't be honest enough to call water 'water', how can I trust anything else on the list.

    How about people who don't know the difference between "bought it" and "brought it" - makes you wonder how badly some people are bought up....

    People that use generic statements about things that they've heard or picked up from other people that think sound really profound.

    My worst is when people say they have an 'eclectic' taste in music, thereby wanting to demonstrate they like different genres. Just about everyone can say that because pretty much everyone likes more than one genre in music. It's no big thing to say you like thrash metal but also have an Andrea Boccelli album.

    The other one I heard the other day was the reporter on sky spts news talking about the death of Dessie Hughes. He said that he thinks the word 'legend' gets bandied about all too often these days for his liking, but Dessie Hughes is a legend in the true sense of the word.

    I've got no problem with him saying Dessie Hughes is a true legend, I know nothing of racing, I'm sure he is. It's just people always say that bit before about the word legend being used all too loosely.

    Minute cliches or sayings, bugging me.

    Check "aqua" isn't followed by "fortis" or "regia".

    The depressing evolution of how people use forums.

    The fact more people would rather contribute to argumentative threads about politics, religion, rapists etc and get into pathetic point scoring, tit for tat 'duals', than contribute to light hearted threads (such as memorable parties).

    "Eclectic mix" isn't that like saying "Small little"
