pet hate .

[schmokinn]

 i also hate people who are incapable of backing into there drives so they have to reverse out blindly into moving traffic and endangering pedestrians and contravening highway code advice.

people who think they may wear their indicators out if they use them.

people driving 20mph less than the speed limit because they can or because they have realised the Mercedes they bought costs more to run than they can afford!

and the list could go on.

i wish we could go back to when people got taught to drive rather than how to pass a test.

i used to love driving but now more often than not i hate it.

heres a laugh...sitting at a junction the other day the proximity sensor starts to go off and gets more and more insistent,turn off the audible signal and notice that the indicator is in the red!

FFS i think must be a fault as i am not reversing.....look in the mirror and there is some old boy so close he was nearly parked in the boot and still moving!!!

Driving to the retail park which is a ball ache to get to with busy traffic (Farnborough Gate). Then when you ask the assistant if they have any in stock they say "We don't have it in store but if you visit our website" - really annoying!

Ha Ha, I'm not talking about specialist items here, but things you'd expect them (in this case PC World) to stock, besides I can't always wait for things to be delivered, and if i want something i tend to want it now rather than 6 weeks later.

It's a bit like those furniture shops. I wanted to get a new sofa the other week and the first hurdle was stating my preference to pay cash and not use their never never credit facilities. To my surprise this proved very difficult because they were insistent on trying to flog their credit, and then i was told they don't hold stock and that it would take at least 8 weeks for delivery. Turns out all those furniture shops are simple 'dropship' operations from factories in the very cheap Eastern Block countries, I ended up just getting it from IKEA in the end.

she drives me insane on occasion and her ability to stay silent for an unbelievable period of time is almost honed to a fine art.

but then again she cooks an awesome roast :nyam:
