    Spurs (and probably Everton) fans moaning about qualifying for the Europa League. What do they expect, that the one time they happened to finish 4th would be repeated forever more?

    Not getting any sleep for four nights running:
    1st night - neighbours come back from holiday and are still in holiday mood. Lots of singing and shouting. Their over excitable alsation barks all night.
    2nd night - our eldest phones in the small hours. "Dad, I'm in A&E. Can you come down here please, I've got no money to get out of the hospital car park".
    3rd night - feeling shit, aching all over, going hot and cold.
    4th night - Mrs Stig has a case of Delhi belly, up and down to the toilet all night.

    I'm usually a sound sleeper, but this week it's getting me down.

    Hope your eldest is on the mend mate

    The Portuguese, who almost to a man/woman, find it impossible to use the little bar in supermarkets to separate their shopping from yours. It's almost as if it's beneath them to take the enormous effort to lift it up and place it on the conveyor belt eight inches away. Most of them then proceed to pay in the way described above by Rob.

    There should be more bars in supermarkets.

    The fact that qualifying for the Champions League seems more important than actually competing in it.

    This infuriates me. Man City resting players against Bayern Munich because they've got a tricky tie at Stoke Sunday.
  • I hate non-messages. There was an announcement at London Bridge tube station yesterday afternoon which went something like - This is a London Underground customer announcement. London Underground would like to inform you that all lines are operating as scheduled today. Why bother?

    This was after the news I received at my railway station that told me that security staff were operating on the station 24 hours a day. Nonsense.

    I still think that if I actually saw unattended baggage on a station platform, I wouldn't tell any members of staff because I'd feel bad grassing up the terrorist.

    Man City players can't do it against Bayern. They can only do it on a cold Sunday afternoon in Stoke.

    The miss use of Esquire. You do not use it if you have already said Mr. It's either Mr J Saville or J Saville Esq.

    These are the same people that wait till they got to the front of the cash point queue and then get out their cards, enter their pin like Stephen Hawking playing Jenga, then check their balance, then put in another card, finally withdraw money, wait for their receipt and then slowly place their money into their purse. Takes me about 15 seconds to withdraw money.

    You forgot - count the money.....

    The way that people fart-arse around at cash machines really grinds my gears!

    I had to take out a graduate loan to do my Legal Practice Course. The interest was the standard variable at the time (back in 2005) which was about 5.7% and it stayed roughly the same throughout the duration at which I paid it off. Whilst I was paying it off I popped into my local natwest to carry out some manual transaction on it. When I got to the counter to carry out this transaction that had to be in person, the woman suggested I look at transferring this graduate loan onto a credit card that offered 0% interest for 12 months. Normally I'm all for using such opportunities to save money, however I had to point out that the lifetime of this loan is and has already gone past 12 months???? She then said but if I can pay it off within 12 months there will be no interest. Without giving any of you the figure, this whole experience was laughable.

    It could be the equivalent for some of you being asked to put your mortgage or a large proportion of your mortgage on a credit card, in some vain hope you can pay it off within 12 months.

    At the same time a Chinese person who could hardly speak English was being sold a cc at the other counter. This is why the queues are out the door and everyone is living off someone else's money

    How other people seem to glide through work and life in general as smooth and elegantly as a Fred Couples swing, yet you (well, me) manage it as graceful as a nodding dog Paula Radcliffe in the final mile with exhaustion and the sh1ts brewing

    This one doesn't just annoy me but makes me extremely angry.

    Rebecca Francis. Remember that name.

    If you don't know who this low life is you probably should.
    This sick excuse for a human being takes pleasure in shooting beautiful rare wild animals and then posts the pictures on facebook alongside their bodies .

    Absolute pure evil.

    You really wouldn't like Kendal Jones then Beds, another blonde haired, grinning c**t who derives pleasure from slaughtering beautiful animals before posting pictures of her soulless self gurning over the still warm bodies of her victims. I would've posted on this thread about trophy hunters but they do so much more than annoy me, they make me f**king seethe with rage. Spineless, selfish, sociopathic scum.

    Was in Austin, Texas for a week with work recently and one of the guys who works there, really nice bloke, started showing me some of his hunting pictures. One was his 12 year old daughter with her first kill (deer). It was just sat there with blood all over it being half held up off the ground by its ears.

    To him it seemed completely normal. I wanted to be polite and not say anything to offend, but in truth I was just lost for words altogether.

    Similar story a US attorney I work with sends us photos of him and his kids gurning over dead animals. He's from Texas... I guess its a cultural thing like fox hunting but quite frankly that doesn't make it right
