    Trying to get your teenage son out of bed in the mornings........

    You really should make him sleep in his own bed. If he is a teenager he should have grown out of all that by now.

    Sounds silly given that i'm 22 going on 23 now but when I was at school during some kind of assignment or practical essay, the wise-kids or eager ones would ask the teacher "What do you do when you're finished?"

    I knew the answer everytime - stop trying to let the class know clever you are and shut up.

    As a teacher that used to wind me up too as I then had to a) mark their work and b) find them some sort of extension activity. Dragged me away from my cup of tea and copy of The Guardian!

    Lost a long term friend to it yesterday, it finally took her after a 10 year battle. Absolute smasher she was and an inspiration to everyone who knew her.

    Obviously never nice to hear of someone passing away to this terrible disease, but 36 years old, 10 year old little boy, husband an absolute diamond. Makes one wonder if there is a god don't it?

    Cheers though AFKA pal, I'm okay, just very gutted for her and her family x

    Toilet roll dispensers in offices or pub toilets where the flat pack design of the paper gets out of synch so you have to try and pull a big wad of paper through the small gap.

    Also happens to boxes of tissues, packs of wet wipes etc.

    Dog owners who still think it's ok to let their dog have a dump on the pavement and not clear it up. Some prick up the road from me is a culprit. Ive had a word with him before but he is obviously a bit challenged. So my next course of action is, post it through his letter box.

    People who try and cut the lanes on the road to save thirty whole seconds. They zoom past on the outside then a few seconds later they're indicating trying to come back in cos that lane is solid too. I don't let them.

    When a whole set of traffic lights controlling a large roundabout goes out of sync and causes mayhem. How can they not link them all together in this day and age?

    Reclining seats on aeroplanes. I can buy into this for long haul flights but coming back from Dusseldorf on Friday (1hr 5min flight) the prick in front put his seat all the way back nearly knee capping me. I asked him politely if he would put his seat upright but he ignored me so one hefty slam with the tray did the trick!

    Seriously why can't anyone just sit normally for an hour when I am Presdient I will take out all reclining seats on Planes. Oh and switch of them fucking silly matrix signs on motorways telling everyone there is a queue and that we must all do 40 mph and as a result cause the queue to form! Absolutely brainless, useless technology.

    Having a bad day so love this thread
