Shops that try to con people who buy in bulk, by bumping up the prices of some bulk items to catch out the unwary. ASDA, I'm specifically calling you out on this. I popped in my local one today to get some Liffey Water to celebrate St James's Gate Day. Twelve cans for £10 or fifteen for £18. Ridiculous.
Recyclable packaging that says 'don't recycle at home, recycle in store'. What's that about? I'm not aware of any facilities in my store* and I'm loath to take a load of crisp packets in there on spec. Why can't it all be recycled as part of the regular rubbish collection?
*By the way we're in England where the proper name for these entities is 'shops'.
People who park at the pump at the petrol station, only to use the shop and don't get any fuel.
Van drivers who fix their ladders to the roof rack too far off the back of the van, rather than over hang the bonnet (Worse on the Continent, but see it too many times here).
Car passengers who sit with thier feet up on the dashboard.
Mrs TCE’s contribution to football commentator’s inane statements. commentator… a few of the Leeds players partners expecting babies including Patrick Banford 🤷♂️ Mrs TCE……. Ah, that’s lovely 🤷♂️🤷♂️🤷♂️
my thoughts……. Will the pair of you just feck off 😂😂

Many supermarkets have a large container of some sort, where you can put soft plastic that can't be recycle at home. My local Tesco has one near the door.

Innumeracy tax, I'm all in favour. Save money in later life by paying attention in school maths lessons.
People who take the kitchen sink in their carry on luggage.
I’ve just returned from a week in NZ visiting my folks. The number of economy folk who take a wheelie case and 1 or 2 other bags, is astounding. Why don’t more airlines police this properly and make people carry as hold luggage? It’s not as if they save any time at the other end.
Also, transiting in the US. What a completely inefficient debacle, clearing security and checking back in. The number of times I’ve done this in the last couple of years and each time there are fewer agents processing an increasing number of passengers.
Another phone snatch right in front of my eyes by an electric bike by regents park. He then sped past police parked up about 30 yards behind me. Bet they don't even go after the little rat.
The One Show theme with that bloody awful shrill trumpet that, just when you think it can't get more grating, pumps out a sustained final high note that unfortunately not only dogs can hear.

I think they'll find Patrick Bamford has already been born

It's illegal to do that in Portugal. And to drive or ride a motorbike wearing flip-flops.
Someone on the radio talking about maternity care a few days ago, referring to "mothers and birthing people". What on earth are "birthing people" if not mothers??? If someone has ovaries and a womb that can create babies, they are mothers. Any other description is horseshit.

I’m offended by this comment as you haven’t mentioned if it was boy horse shit or lady horse shit…

I take your point about the term 'birthing people' but not everyone who has ovaries and a womb is a mother.

Dull but true.
