    Restaurants that have seating for a load of diners and only one toilet! which in the case of The Bengal Lancer in Chislehurst doesn't have any hot water just cold, no soap and a hand drier that doesn't work. On that basis the bloody place should be shut down until it upgrades to adequate facilites. It's bad enough at The Valley but not acceptable in a restuarant.

    Those absolutely ridiculous baseball caps with the larger peak (Snapbacks?), like something Donald Duck wears. Never fail to make the wearer look like anything but a complete nerd.

    B-sides which are remixes of the single. If I like the single enough to buy it, I won't be interested in hearing bits of the songs repeated over a lousy dance track. Write a proper B-side, do a cover, or don't bother

    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.

    I always hear people moaning about middle lane drivers and I've never really understood it. I don't really drive on the motorway but often on the A2. I'm pretty consistent in that I drive at 75, 80 if I'm in a rush. But traffic dependent, I will always drive at the same speed throughout my journey. I don't like having to keep changing lanes either. So let's say I'm doing my 75 on the A2. It's obviously too fast to be in the slow lane, but not fast enough to be in the fast lane. So which lane should I be in?

    You should be driving in the inside lane unless you are overtaking.

    There is no such thing as a slow or fast lane.

    try the highway code, it's a cracking read: "Rule 238: You should drive in the left-hand lane if the road ahead is clear. Return to the left-hand lane once you have overtaken all the vehicles or if you are delaying traffic behind you".

    ? Ok so I rephrase my question, I'm driving too fast for the inside lane but too slow for the outside lane, where should I be?

    ie there is no speed limit to drive in the left hand lane.

    Oh ok. Yeah that is what I do in principal. But unless I'm driving at night, the 'inside' lane is rarely not occupied by cars doing less than what I'm doing, hence my lack of opportunity to 'return to the left-hand lane'.

    To be honest the whole thing is a contradiction because 70 is the limit yet you shouldn't be driving below 70 unless your vehicle prohibits it. Meaning with the exception of vehicles limited to less than 70, we should all be driving in the inside lane, no one overtaking anyone.
