    1. Smokers standing in doorways to smoke or smoke immediately after getting off the train. Defeats the frikkin purpose of banning the act, you just get us on the way in/out instead.

    C. I second the 'middle lane hoggers' post. If anyone reading this thinks the middle lane is for cruising, hear this: you're an idiot.

    D. People walking really close behind me when it's completely unnecessary.

    G. People in Supermarkets who decide to go for what you are looking at, because they have subconsciously been attracted to it by your own interest. It's a weird psychological thing, but it's true. And annoying.

    People who struggle with a numbering system. 1, C, D, G ffs :-)

    The exact opposite scenario to this. People who get to the shelf I want, dither about what they want and are completely oblivious to the fact that I'm standing behind them waiting.

    Yay !

  • True story, I was driving on the freeway here in Oz in the middle lane on a Friday night, it was a three lane road.

    I am steaming down the middle lane but gaining way faster than I should on the car in front and have cars on my left and right so can't easily change lanes.

    I start hitting the anchors sharpish, very sharpish actually and screech down to about 20kmh to find a FUCKING TRACTOR in the middle lane of a 110kmh freeway tootling along without a care in the world.

    True to form no Old Bill to be seen anywhere and on the way home I got done for speeding!

    Lowlife!
  • People who push to be near the door of the tube so they can be first off, rush off it in a hurry, and then stand on the escalator instead of walking up it.

    Either you're in a rush or you're not.

    ...and those who stand up at Hither Green and block the doorway, to be first off at New Eltham. Same people I reckon.

    Paint your house number on your next one.

    Admittedly this will be no help if someone at the same number house in another street wants to take it, but it's a start.

    Or move to a really long road and live at the top so your house number is 873 or something. That will cut down the number of people who'd be bothered nicking your bin.....

    Yeah was going ti with this one but hadn't had a chance yet.

    And cheers Shag! I suspect it'll look exactly the same as someone else's on my street, except for the new number they will have painted on!!

    Sorry, that idea is flawed. If he lives at the at the top of a long road, some scroat is likely to push it down the hill and he'll be back to square one.

    He needs to move to the bottom of the hill and keep something heavy in it.

    Something heavy like the dead body of a wheelie bin thief?

    I've written a stern letter to shove through all the neighbour's letterboxes.

    Yeah, that's right, a stern letter. Hardcore, eh? That'll show them. Grrrr.

    Ended it by saying I'm going to have a lot of dirty nappies soon, and if they'd rather I find somewhere else to put them, keep the bin....

    Remember to use emulsion paint so it runs in the rain.

    It's people randomly picking numbers but they all reckon they're doing some genius strategy. I'd just go clockwise,no hugging or talking to the other people. Could have it done in 10 minutes

    driving along on a dual carriageway when the car infront randomly slows down, so you indicate to overtake but before you can pull out the car behind you has also pulled out & started to overtake you - drives me mad
